This forum is to be a welcoming place for people of all ethnic backgrounds. Endorsements of anti-semitism are not conducive to that. You, Player, and Bert have been clouding this forum with a spirit that is foreign to the cosmopolitan social philosophy of the Misesian tradition. It stops now.

Why is my name thrown into this, what anti-semitism, and what social philosophy do I endorse?

That represents my judgment based on your post history. This is not a matter for debate. If you keep the anti-semitic rhetoric out of future posts, we won't have a problem.

Exactly what anti-Semitic rhetoric? I don't see how something like questioning the Holocaust is anti-Semitic, if that's what you are getting at.

From what I understand, I suppose to keep mysterious anti-Semitic rhetoric out of future context (of which I'm not sure of), and the discussion of this is not open to debate, even when the accused is calling out for an explanation of what's anti-Semitic and what was said that was anti-Semitic. I would like to know, so maybe future context will fall into line of the forum's paradigm and the other two users (Newson and Player) could possibly be informed that what they might have to say may not reflect the collective view of the forum.
