niss,
Let's say we have a provably accurate mind-reader and determine Cyrus is not actually anti-semitic. But if he makes the same arguments and references the same sources, as are made by and referenced by persons with provably anti-semitc views, then the effect is the same. Which then would probably be proof that he doesn't actually believe all that he posts and is doing so only for perverse inflammatory amusement.

huh??!!
I feel like the AFLAC duck walking out of the barber shop after listening to Yogi Berra.
Are you saying that if I happen to agree with anything said by a poster who is admittedly anti-semetic, it then follows that my POV is therefore invalidated because I agree with an anti-semite?
I'd sure like to think that the message is more important than the messenger?
Did I misunderstand something here?
