This is the first I’ve heard of it, but here’s one of his infamous quotes:

"There is a trait in the Jewish character that does provoke animosity, maybe it’s a kind of lack of generosity towards non-Jews.

I mean, there’s always a reason why anti-anything crops up anywhere; even a stinker like Hitler didn’t just pick on them for no reason.”

His other quotes tend to be condemnation about specifically Israeli zionism and barbaric murder, but i don’t have context as to whether he’s referring to palestine or not. Some people might have more sympathy for these statements these days, but a lot of his other quotes have to do with Jews controlling money and media, less defensible prejudice.

    The only question I can see that I haven’t answered is the one you asked after I asked you what sort of thing on that level of trauma happened when you were seven.

    I’m not sure why you expect me to answer any of your questions when you have refused to answer the one I asked you twice.

      I answered as best as I could. What do you want me to say?

      Notice I’ve supplied you with plenty of information from people who are far, far more familiar with this matter than you or I.

      It speaks volumes that you’re completely unwilling to engage with it.

        You could have given three possible answers:

        1. Named the sort of trauma you went through.
        2. Said you never went through anything that traumatic at her age.
        3. Said you have no idea if you went through anything that traumatic.

        And if it was 2 or 3, good for you. Plenty of people who suffered sexual abuse at that age remember it very, very well. I know more than one of them.

        But you haven’t answered with any of those. All you said was, “like I said, I don’t have many memories from that age and none I would be 100% confident about in their accuracy.” That is not an answer. Because that could mean anything.

            It isn’t an honest answer. It could mean “I have 99% confidence something traumatic did happen to me.” It also could mean “I have 1% confidence something traumatic did happen to me.”

              It isn’t an honest answer.

              This is the level you’re stooping to? I think you need to reevaluate your approach to this.

              It could mean “I have 99% confidence something traumatic did happen to me.” It also could mean “I have 1% confidence something traumatic did happen to me.”

              It could mean that, as I originally said, “I don’t have many memories from that age and none I would be 100% confident about in their accuracy.”

              That’s the truth. You may not like it but that’s not my problem.

              Anyway, I sense you’re pulling on this thread for all it’s worth to avoid discussing literally everything else I’ve brought up. Let’s leave it there. It’s like talking to a brick wall.

                You’re just avoiding telling me whether or not you remember going through anything traumatic. Either you remember something or you don’t. If you don’t remember going through anything traumatic and no one told you you went through anything traumatic, then you can say you probably didn’t. If you remember something or someone told you that it happened, maybe you did.

                You won’t tell me either way. You seem to think that there is some ‘trauma happened/didn’t happen’ superposition where you can just say ‘I’m not sure if my memories of childhood are true’ and get out of that.

                Would you say that if I asked you if you broke any bones as a child? How about if I asked you if you ever got hit by a car as a child? Would you say, “I can’t say with confidence what happened to me as a child” as an answer to that question? Because, again, that’s not an actual answer to the question.
