I especially like the last post. By its (accurate) logic, all
Jewish organizations can be considered apartheid organizations
and thus deserving of elimination. Not so sure about
"relocating" the settlers, though. Why not just follow the
advice of the second post?

The False Left solution would have been to lower the "black"
passing score in order to equalize outcomes. We have always been
against this, as it perpetuates Western standards but then
merely lowers those standards for ethnic groups which have
trouble meeting them, which signals that those ethnic groups are
inferior and hence promotes negative ethnic profiling against
them later (during hiring, promotion, etc.).
The new solution is True Left, as it challenges the validity of
Western standards themselves, as previously explained:
