Wait, what're those last two?

I'm not conservative. Do people assume I'm conservative? Is that why people just mindlessly downvote without even caring how it'll emotionally impact the recipient? People don't have to cast a vote on every comment they see. Why is there such a horrible "Crucify him" instead of "Educate him" mindset? This is literally being no better than the other side.

Racism is one of the defining features of conservatism

I know, and Jews are considered white in all my circles across the political spectrum (I have both super-liberal and ultraconservative friends). That's why I've been shocked by all this.

No, I'm quite serious. I don't understand why I'm being downvoted for direct experience; I know conservatives who are happy that Israel is "reclaiming its rightful land," even ecstatic; who else is funding them? I thought it was liberals who are anti-Israel.

Can people stop freaking downvoting? I'm trying to get education here. Downvotes are for spammers and trolls, whereas I'm being honest in just trying to figure this out, geez.

What? I don't know any anti-Jew conservative...
