    Let’s just forget about the rampant systemic antisemitism that existed for more than a 1000 years in Europe and culminated with the Holocaust, right ?

    And the insanely antisemitic take that Jewish people is “the most powerful ethnic group”. What the fuck …

      You are going 1000 years ago just like zios huh. Blacks amd many other races/ethnicites faced genocide in history too

      And theres nothing anti semitic about stating the fact that jews are one of the most powerful ethnic groups and there is no systematic anti semitism that exists today.

        It’s antisemitic just like saying “all black people are criminals” is racist. You’re making a vague generalisation about millions of people.

        Real antisemitism is still very much present, and even though it’s being massively weaponized by Zionists, it doesn’t make it any less true.

        And that weaponization is actually working and making the problem a lot worse, because of people like you, conflating real antisemitism with made up antisemitism (criticizing Zionism and Israel is antisemitism kind of fake).

        Also I’ve never said that Jews were the only victims of genocide in history ?

          “Its anti semitic” No its not, its like crying about anti white racism (which doesnt exist). Jews are as privileged as whites in the west, thats a fact.

          Real anti semitism is what? Why does it need special task force and millions of dollars to combat it? Anti semitism has long became tool of zionists to downplay pro Palestinian movements. Its nothing but jewish exceptionalism in which zohran is engaging in. It does not jeed special attention.

          Its like making anti german racism task force while holocaust was going on. Be serious.

            When you joined the CIA, you probably thought you’d be doing real spy stuff, huh?

            Go sit on a Flock camera and make it disappear.

        I think antisemitism is a real problem today. In my country, the UK, within the last year or so, there was an arson attack on Jewish ambulances in London, and a stabbing attack in Manchester in which two Jewish men were killed. Both incidents seem to have been hate crimes.

        Just to point out: I don’t support Netanyahu or his government’s genocide of Palestinians, but I’m not going to blame all Jews for that, because I’m not racist.

        Anybody can be the victim of ethnic discrimination, regardless of how “powerful”, or powerless, other members of your ethnic group are.

          How about the majority of jews? They literally celebrate in public uproar when a IDF soldier posts a picture of themselves raping a Palestinian prisoner.

            Who are you to say what the majority of us think? Plenty of anti-zionist Jews are disgusted by what Israel is doing

              And have done what about it, so far? Because last I checked Nazanyahu is still both alive and in power, and every news I check of Yet Another Palestinian Killed shows the Israeli masses cheering.

              Talking about feeling offended while others die is easy, dude, but the proof is in the pringles. And bear in mind, this is not just you. Several countries are having similar issues, so it’s not like you are the Chosen People to Feel Like That.

          Do you support the existence of an israeli state?

          Alot of hate crimes happen against other different communities as well. I dont think jews need special treatment. All this rhetoric does is justify the zionist argument of a safe country for jews

            I don’t think my view of Israel changes the fact that antisemitism exists

            Alot of hate crimes happen against other different communities as well

            Yes, and there are specific programmes to tackle those different types of hate crimes, motivated by Islamophobia, or homophobia, or whatever it might be

              None of those hate crimes are addressed as aggressively as anti semitism despite the fact that those are way more prevalent than anti semitism.
