At one point he said, "when most Christians say 'Judeo-Christian,' they don't mean the 'Judeo' part." Then he turned the rabbi and said, "sorry, Arnie."<br /><br />More recently, I was a Facebook discussion and one guy said that he decided not to go to a certain university because it was "full of social justice warriors." Let's be honest: nobody gets into a UC campus but decides to go for the Cal State system because they might encounter liberals. (News flash: the Cal State system has its share of liberals too.) But he had crossed that line and I could no longer take him seriously. Yeah, I pulled out his language and called him a "special snowflake" who was so scared of the big mean "social justice warriors."John Dumashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08908646219266836986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8340684.post-65586236244073711352017-02-11T20:29:25.408-05:002017-02-11T20:29:25.408-05:00Heh.
