I find it strange that David Schwimmer made a public plea for decency when it was about anti-semitism but not for any of the rest of the hateful shit projectile-blasted around that echo chamber.

He just wants to be in the news cycle again.

~~He's also rich and Jewish, probably doesn't give a fuck about any injustice unless it's antisemitism.~~

Edit: so it turns out he's spoken out against injustice plenty of times before, when it wasn't about Jews. He even lobbied to get more non-white people on Friends, such as his character's Asian-American girlfriend. It's not all disingenious with him, even though his support of Israel is regretful.

Unless he's puling a Seinfeld when I wasn't looking, I'll reserve that judgement for another day.

Yeah, see my edit. While he's spoken out in defense of Israel, he does also have a track record of opposing injustice where he sees it even if it doesn't affect him or people in his own ethnic, religious or other groups.
