Spoiler: Biden is one of the most racist and antisemitic people to ever hold office.
Dude hung out with Strom Thurmond, called him a friend, and gave his eulogy. The senator for like 75 fucking years of his 100 year life who famously filibustered.......the civil rights act. That guy was Biden's bud.
So, call me very skeptical of anything Jim Crow Joe has to say about hatred towards any ethnic group.
I remember having this feeling after 9/11 but I didn't have the words to articulate it properly because I was a 16 year old punker kid who had that punk anti-authority thing going but I hadn't read any real theory or anything like that to really help me put the right words to the page.
I've told this story before but 9/11 was extremely weird to me. I didn't understand why it was seen as such a disaster. Hell, in some ways it was seen as a boon. The weird contentious election of dubya had caused national disunity and suddenly everybody was behind the government. Sure, innocent lives were lost, I feel bad for the kids especially, but aside from the plane that hit the pentagon as an attack on a legit military target it's not like it really took out serious infrastructure. They didn't blow up a nuclear power plant. They didn't blow up a military base. They didn't blow up some critical bridges or factories that make missiles. They blew up some buildings full of finance dorks and bank nerds. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor they not only damaged the harbor but they sank a bunch of ships. Basically crippled the entire Pacific Fleet. They also invaded a few of the Aleutian islands but that never really went anywhere. The ability for the USA to project power into the largest ocean on the planet was hamstrung. And yet our politicians and media were acting like 9/11 was just as a bad. And it was time to blow up some "camel jockeys" and "sand n-words" over it. It was like, "hey time to bully the most bullied nation on Earth since Genghis fucking Khan because they killed Carl from Accounting." It was pure vibes, feelings over lives as you succinctly put it. The jingoism and blind patriotism and "if you don't like it you can leave it" bullshit was at a fever pitch. Goddamn the manufacturing of consent was strong then. Younger comrades, please understand, it was a really really wild time.
They also did a very weird thing where before the day was out every talking head and journalist was calling it "the september 11th attacks." Originally it was "The WTC attacks" but they switched it up. They memorialized it while the craters were still smoking and they were still trying to pull survivors out of the rubble. It didn't even have to hit a 1 year anniversary. Now I point this out because they did this exact thing with October 7th. It wasn't the Hamas attacks. It wasn't the "festival attack" it wasn't "the Kibbutz attack" or the "hostage crisis." It was October 7th. Manufacturing that Goddamned consent to turn it into a holiday of bloodshed to justify the IOF actions in reprisal. The funniest thing to me, and I mean that I laughed very very darkly, was when Biden called "October 7th multiple 9/11s" or some shit like that. It was just code words on code words. In a hundred years that sentence will mean nothing to people but in the context of propaganda. It would be like calling the Siege of Prague "July 25th" or the massacre at Wounded Knee "12/29." Just fucking meaningless bullshit unless your entire point is force it into becoming something people forever associate with that specific day. Which... there's a lot of history, and pretty much every day has had multiple very famous things that happened on these days over recorded history. Which makes it useless as a naming convention and something that I'd call historical malpractice.
Actual antisemites are by far the biggest winners of this. Because pro-Palestine opinion is so widespread and the word "antisemitic" has been thoroughly dragged through the mud, calling actual Nazis out for antisemitism barely registers anymore. The word lost its meaning and getting called antisemitic is almost cool now.
Yup I've been say8ng since the beginning calling an entire generation antisemitic for being opposed to genocide is just going to make that generation of people completely right of any future claims of antisemitism.
How easy is it for some actual nazi to say "well yea they call me anti Semitic but they also called a bunch of aid workers anti Semitic for trying to feed the people who's homes isreal just bombed."
The groyper ecosystem has been more active than I've seen in since 2017-18ish.
They REALLY like videos of Palestinian and Yemeni kids cutting promos on Zionists.
So we've now stooped to words critical of israel are antisemitism, totally watering down the definition to nothing. Actual antisemites are pleased about this.
Israel benefits from actual antisemitism. The less safe the rest of the world is for Jewish people the more of them will be forced to emigrate.
Israel just took Rafah and every city in Gaza is now flooded with tanks and mortars but yeah, college "antisemitism" is what we should be worried about.
So according to Biden to be Jewish is to be a genocider and a colonizer? How is that not just another form of real antisemitism?
Tbh I'm starting to feel a lil left out. No one has been antisemitic to me or anyone I know lately. I keep hearing about all the antisemitism but apparently no one cares that I'm jewish. My username is Jew and none of you libs ever get antisemitic w me. What am I doing wrong?
"From the river to the sea!"
"STOP IT PATRICK YOU'RE SCARING HIM!"
Geography is very scary... threatening to change Geography is almost identical to dropping Zyklon tablets on my European ancestors
I wish I could help you but I'm roughly in the same boat even though my display name is cryptographic.
I feel like the fact that we made you feel left out is anti-semitic because we made you feel distanced from other Jewish people.
To be fair, alot of them support a fascist ethnostate and I NEED my distance from those ones
Q. What’s the difference between a Jew and a pizza?
A.
Nobody needs to have pizza, but every Sunday a Catholic needs to chew a Jew.
Has there been a single high-level Democrat who's pointed out how many right-wing talking points are derived from (implicitly antisemitic) conspiracy theories, with the idea of "Cultural Marxism" in particular being taken directly from the literal Nazis?
No because that would be punching right.
Instead have to spend their time calling out the antisemitism of "stop giving the people bombing innocent civilians bombs and planes that can carry and drop bombs"
Do not speak ill of nazis as that would be speaking I’ll of the constitution and first amendment.
At what point will Zionists just unironically start labeling their ideology as semitism?
Why is the administration pushing Holocaust remembrance? Remembering the Holocaust seems like a gateway to “antisemitism” for normal people. Or did they end this ceremony chanting “again and again?”
Uh, oh.
I don't feel antisemitic but not only do I not keep kosher - the other day I bought bacon bits.
You didnt have an answer, i wanted to know, so i googled it..."Although pigs do have split hooves, they do not chew their cud; accordingly, pigs are not kosher and cannot be made kosher. Since bacon comes from pig, it is not kosher."
Cud is food from the first stomach returned to the mouth for firther chewing.
I’m aware that pork isn’t kosher. I just haven’t seen any Zionists going around accusing pro-Palestinian people of being antisemitic because of it. Although the specific reason why it’s not kosher is interesting, so thank you.
They probably haven’t done that cause they aren’t that bright.
I'm going to pretend he's talking about hate against Palestinians since the headline didn't specify.
Yes, that is what I mean. It's true but it's clearly not what he is trying to say.
Called out the college protests as antisemitic too.
Liberals are so good at politics.
