Your post proved my point...If you cited the ADL, I would maybe think there was some truth to it...but citing the hillary campaign, which needed an entire blog post to paint this far fetched picture, clearly the author is off on their witch hunt, and not actually reporting on anything of true concern.

Real hate speech and real inciting of violence is obvious to the naked eye. It doesn't need a house of cards built under it to come into focus.

Edit: Just to be clear, the original article says nothing about Israel helping censor hate speech, just speech that incites violence. There is nothing slippery or subjective about "calling on the public to stab Israeli's and Jews in the streets"

Ha ha ha, hillaryclinton.com. Pepe is not a white supremacy symbol, however some white supremacists may also use the Pepe frog meme. Declaring an innocent frog used by weirdos on 4chan how just want to be edgy and cool to be a white supremacy symbol is, frankly, naive.

   naive
It's not naive, but a well-executed damage-control move to detract attention away from Mrs Clinton's health problems. The ludicrousness of discussing frogs close to the election of the world's sole superpower is part of the effectiveness of the move.

What does that have to do with incitement to violence?

Man, that's an impressive amount of bullshit in one article, even for a politician.
