Naw look, that thing with the antisemite earlier is very much my standard MO. I understand that we live in a deeply fascist/reactionary culture and some folks just don't know. Just like the last antisemite I put on blast, I gave that guy an opportunity to say "oh, that's raging antisemitism? I had no idea" or "I don't get it, can you explain why?"

You've been bought cheap" - itself another antisemitic trope (and personally insulting/woefully inaccurate to boot) that implies I only think *checks notes* a picture of a leering Devil will an Israeli flag on it's forehead is antisemitic because I'm paid to think that by... take a guess?
Fuck around and find out.
I ain't here for it.

and the people who get nuclear-level defensive about it instantly are never doing it over, like, some piece of really effective messaging that's problematic in a certain contextit's always just some shit-tier facebook memes
like, yeah, bro, you were so close to winning the propaganda war with that meme you copied right out of a "boomer cringe compilation"

AnarchoNinaWrites (anarchoninawrites@jorts.horse)'s status on Thursday, 25-Jul-2024 12:36:32 JST AnarchoNinaWrites Perhaps even further to the point, the post buddy was replying to was a critique of Labour Party policy that had literally NOTHING to do with Israel at all. So the implication was that Starmer is rounding up migrants, denying care to trans kids, and expelling Labour MPs voting to end child poverty because "the Jews/Israel made him to it."
There's a lot of things you can criticize Israel for, and you can read about them on my timeline, but none of them are "Keir Starmer is a hateful Tory."

He shoulda taken it. Once he decided not to, I simply had to assume I was dealing with a Nazi in my replies trying to recruit me and act accordingly...
with extreme hostility.
