"If you hate racism, that means you have to hate Israel" - this lady
I swear to god, liberals are creating anti-semitism wherever they go by using Jews as a bludgeon against any non-lib group. If I was Jewish I'd be pretty pissed off.
I mean, yes, but not for the reasons this lady thinks. And the sorts of folks who're likely to read that article will come out thinking that being anti-racist means you hate Jews (which is obviously the completely wrong way around).
I think it's less that staunch anti-racists are reading a shitty lib take and going 'oh yeah I hate jews now' and more that kinda switched-off centrist-y types who don't really have an opinion are skimming a bunch of headlines like 'here's why anti-racist campaigners are cancelling Israel, by Trust Fund Baby #17' and over time it builds up a negative association that they're not even fully aware of. And that then makes them vulnerable to anti-semitic propaganda.
Your worth is tied to the value of the nation that claims you
Say it with me, kids - Being critical of Israel is not the same thing as being anti-Semitic.
Liberals accuse everything left of them being anti-semetic. Whether it's Jeremy Corbyn or BLM.
It's actually kinda funny cause as much as they scream about Russia and China supposedly influencing our elections, they don't say a word about Israel (or even Saudi Arabia). Most politicians in congress have Israeli citizenship and Israel is always a major talking point for both political parties.
Yes, as my friend used to refer to it as 'America's little beacon of whiteness in the middle east'.
Herut were never called fascists, and Amin al-Husseini never met with Hitler
