Meanwhile Lefty Jews are trashing tf outta Israel’s govt rn so what’s tea? Worry about ignoring the atrocities of what Palestinians have gone thru at the hands of the Israeli govt first - or should I just start calling you Islamophobic back? let’s read the room pls, there’s a time and a place to bring up horrible anti-jew hate crimes. But it’s not now, as you’re being a useful idiot to the IDF by going along w the narrative rn bc they’re using that as a way to get sympathy points for bombing Palestinians.

You really thought you did something there.

It is a right wing talking bc you’re literally hiding the way right wingers are extremely anti-semetic. White supremacists literally believe Jews control the world. They make memes about it all the time. They drag George Soros and blame everything on him. They literally hint and pander at Hitler all the time online + theyre violent. Those posts exist - but oh “guys AOC had a perceived misinformed tweet guys shes the next hitler” 😭 No, you’re still reading a corner of the room. This would’nt have been thread worthy a month ago. Every post about this subject has to reflect what’s going on in Israel. Please make it click anti-semetic hate crimes are being weaponized rn by the Israeli government - especially in this post regarding Palestine and ethnic cleansing accusations.

No you’re the one who needs to read an accurate history book (something before the 40’s). Israel has been the Jewish country for hundreds of years, and it’ll always be. Also ethnic cleansing? Do you even know the definition of that? Don’t you think that if Israel, such a powerful and terrifying country, wanted to do ethnic cleansing to the Palestinian people they would’ve done that years ago? Israel can erase Gaza within hours if they wanted to. And yes, spreading lies and making false accusations about the only Jewish country in the whole world is antisemitism.

No but going after the left (which - if there is actual anti-semitism - I’d like to see it bc no, I don’t like that) is egregious when the right is far more harmful with it. Religion is being used as an excuse to justify the removal of palestinians - and bc centrists and right wingers ignore that, the left gets called anti-semetic for saying “this is not an excuse.” There’s a problem when y’all try and distract from palestinian pain by bringing up different discussions. Focus on the main issue please. Also idk what you mean by “what the israeli govt is saying” no we all see them trynna meme their way outta a genocide and it’s not cute… not really much of a discussion here.
