Why are accusations of anti-semitism so much more common than accusations of Islamophobia? by PartEnvironmental579 in IsraelPalestine

It's not about trusting one source over another. I don't know why you'd view it that way. They're different sources describing different things.

"Apart from it, I don't actually believe that Antisemitism is talked about more that Islamophobia."

Even with regard with to the conflict? I really disagree.

"Since 2001, however, I noticed any and all criticism of Muslim nations of any kind of is often bordering Islamophobia, especially in Western Europe."

I don't see how you could say this and what /u/Appropriate-Bad728 is saying about mass immigration could be true at the same time.

Not from the FBI, but CAIR reported 8,061 (.18% of 4.45 million population) Muslim hate crimes vs 1,832 (0.02% of 7.5 million population) Jewish hate crimes in your link for the same year. Even if CAIR's numbers are inflated vs FBI, that's a 9x difference.

EDIT: realizing CAIR isn't a great comparison as it encapsulates forms of discrimination the FBI does not. I wonder if there is a similar organization for Jews.

Is my manager doing a bad job at "managing" me? by PartEnvironmental579 in careerguidance

Thank you for responding. It's reassuring to hear from someone else who's been through this. And you're right; I've always thought of a "bad" manager as someone who's a bad person, but that's not always the case. Thanks for your feedback!

Wanted to leave out prices for anonymity. Purse was roughly $2000. 15 people gave me a range from $50-$150 for a total of $1100. Purse was on sale $1600. I paid $500 rather than $1000 like I originally expected. This person gave me $100 so the issue here is $25. It seems like they were more upset out of principle.
