    Yes, I know. I just don’t know what difference it makes in this case. Does it excuse anything RFK Jr. says? Does it make it worse one way or the other? Because otherwise, I don’t see how this is relevant.

      I had too many college professors drill into my head that you always want to use the correct terms when speaking. To not do so allows for incorrect assumptions to be made.

        What incorrect assumptions are to be made here? Is it an incorrect assumption that RFK Jr. was being antisemitic? Because that seems to be the issue here.
