like? i actually do think antizionism — where zionism is defined as believing that israel should exist and is the ancestral homeland of the jewish people — is fundamentally antisemitic but i don’t think there’s any point in telling western leftists that because western leftists have demonstrated that they do not, in fact, give a shit about antisemitism as long as they have a handful of jewish people to tokenize who are ok with their antizionism

why even deny jewish indigeneity to the land of israel, it doesn’t change the fact that palestinians deserve better and it doesn’t help them receive better so why

why assert such an antisemitic position, why say that jews are really from europe or whatever and make it your hill to die on, why deny a simple fact when denying it doesn’t help palestinians whatsoever

jews are indigenous to the levant, that isn’t negotiable and any argument that tries to deny this very basic fact will never succeed in improving the lives of palestinians

jewish people said “ok you’re leftist but are you normal about jewish people” and so many leftists have confidently answered with a resounding “lol fuck no”

feel like challenging people on this site to talk about jewish people and antisemitism without mentioning or linking the conversation to israel/palestine because this shit is getting fucking ridiculous

i don’t know how you can look at jews’ consistent alarm-raising over the rise of antisemitism during the last several months, and see how scared jews have been, and still claim any accusation of antisemitism is an attempt to derail criticism of israel — as if jews haven’t been criticizing israel without sinking to antisemitism since the state came into existence

i don’t know how you can gaslight jews about antisemitism not being real or that serious and still call yourself a leftist when you’re nothing but a monster

i personally love losing followers when i post about leftist antisemitism lol the trash taking itself out

a jew will make a post about grieving the world they thought they lived in while trying to bring attention to the obscene acts of antisemitism being enacted across the fucking globe at rates we’ve not seen in several decades, not mentioning israel or zionism whatsoever

and some human piece of fecal matter will always swoop in to explain that op is in fact an evil (((zionist))) because anyone who cares about the wellbeing of jews must secretly be an agent of israel and don’t you know that people only talk about antisemitic violence to give antizionists a bad name

not me searching for jewish books on barnes & noble just to see a bunch of free palestine shit
