I’m Jewish and the way Israel weaponizes antisemitism as a shield against all the terrible things it does makes me sick

okay but antisemitism is still a significant problem for many jewish people?

Okay but that’s not what this is about

Ricechairsandbeans@alien.top · 1 year ago

maybe but it’s completely disingenuous to present it as a counterpoint it’s just a weird ‘all lives matter’ argument

I’d argue that Israel actively incites antisemitism by claiming to commit hate crimes on our behalf

okay but that has nothing to with whether or not Wembley’s arch is lit a particular set of colours lol
