The fact that there is ZERO coverage of the fact that Jews are loudly and proudly participating in all of these protests is telling b/c it goes against the narrative the media and the administrations and the people in charge are painting. (That they're busting these up because of antisemitism.)
Yup. Also no coverage for the massive increase in antisemitism from white nationalists. My friend’s house has been vandalized three times, he’s getting death threats, and his whole neighborhood is being terrorized. I’m so scared for them :(
Not that statistics would matter much to people pushing an agenda in bad faith, but I would bet the percentage of Jews in the protest is higher than in the general population. When it serves them, they call something like that Jewish. By their normal logic, these are Jewish protest of the IDF.
Meanwhile if the media find one black conservative who thinks racism is a myth and civil rights is a communist plot they will interview him every day. Twice a day of he hangs out in a diner
We hear a bit outside the USA. But for all my politically active life the merest talk of Israel or Jews brought screams of "Antisemitism!" With greater visibility of Jewish activism, we now see that the screaming was done by Israeli government and right-wing shills. We owe the Jewish people thanks.
vast majority of antisemitism ive seen has been amongst folks cheering the war on. They either act like the Jewish diaspora arent real Jews (red flag!) or that we're unable to have convos of identity outside of a narrow evangelical reading.
or nazis delighted for a means to mainstream .
it’s also telling that they keep talking about ”anti-semitism” on campus, but can’t actually say what exactly has happened, only vaguely alluding to ”feeling unsafe”
The ADL and others have managed to create a rhetorical environment in which there is no legitimate criticism of Israel. If you're Jewish and you do it, you're "self-hating." If you're not Jewish and you do it, you hit the "double standard" clause of their antisemitism definition, peak whataboutism.
seeing so many images of people at the protests holding seder, jewish protesters praying, 'Jews for Palestine' banners and NONE of this is in the media !!!
The only place where I have seen this highlighted has been here and TikTok. But I agree, this is completely buried in regular media. Horrendous to see.
You’re only Jewish if you say what you they want you to say. Otherwise you’re a Hamas sponsored plant. Even though we know pro Israeli organisations hire people to go to these protests and be antisemitic to paint the protests in a bad light.
Apparently those of us who have been criticizing Israel's government for running an apartheid state and committing war crimes aren't *real* Jews.
(Or so I've been told, repeatedly.)
Not saying it's been covered nearly enough, but it is starting to appear in a lot of the news I've seen recently. This, for example. www.nytimes.com/2024/04/26/o...
