I'd say this is exactly where the difference between "racist" and "bigoted" needs to be made. And I'm not sure what you mean by "It doesn't matter if it's true or not, it matters if people believe it and use it as an excuse to perpetrate violence against those whom they dislike" in this context. Are you saying the person who posted this story here is trying to incite violence? I do wonder why such a post might find its way to GD - maybe we aren't fighting amongst ourselves enough today. Or are you suggesting Jews will use the story to be violent towards people of African descent? Or vice versa?
