From Buzz Feed News:

I know, or expect, you have slight regard for the Buzz Feed News editorial stance. Just as Breitbart fails to delight me. However the Mayor of San Juan does seem to have said, "This is a people are dying story."

One of my colleagues at work has family down there, and though their house survived, all power is out for the entire island.

He is a sharp guy. Thanks to him, his mother has an electrical generator and a supply of fuel.

The Mayor of San Juan is incompetent; Puerto Rico is rife with corruption and Trump was correct to point that out. He was characterized by the lamestream media (as is expected) as criticizing the people of Puerto Rico.

Breitbart News is a literal Zionist news agency, if you think I give a damn about Breitbart you don't read half of my posts.

Ah well, for someone like my self who is not intimately acquainted with the Alt-Right and the many varieties of antisemitic thought it can be troublesome to sort out.

On the one hand Breitbart has published accusations that the Obama Administration was anti-Semitic, on the other hand they have repeatedly been accused of indulging in anti-Semitic dog-whistle rhetoric. Naturally I thought you would approve of such a news outlet, for being critical of the Jews, who you call parasites.

I was wrong.

As for myself, it is (for me) a matter honor to be clearly and unmistakably opposed to antisemitism.

Everyone right of center is accused of antisemitism. It's like racism: it's a generic attack against anyone or group, but usually it is accused of the right.

Andrew Breitbart himself was Jewish, and sought to create a pro-Israel media company.

The use of some language will naturally lead to accusations of bias. It is a bit like wearing a Black Sabbath shirt. Doing so is not an indication that you worship the Devil. But please do go to the local church picnic wearing a Black Sabbath shirt and act surprised when someone confronts you, with some searching questions. Indignation under such circumstances, would be a bit naive.

So when you call some folks parasites, you shouldn't be surprised if I draw the obvious conclusion, Occam's Razor being handy.

If you are wont to use analogies of that sort consider the difference between those bacteria which are symbiotic in a beneficial manner, they help us digest our food, and a tape worm.

Symbiots may be mutualistic, commensalistic, or parasitic.

A wolf is a noble thing, but the dog -who is but a kind of wolf- joined our team, with benefits for both parties.

Jews have always been an opposing force simply by virtue of being a separate culture.

Cultures are always opposed to each other. Such is the rule of politics and history. To say separate people's can be "symbiotic" is pure historical ignorance; such cooperation only exists in abstract scenarios.
