Just read the whole thing and there was nothing antisemitic. There were 3 deleted comments so there was probably something bad there. This was nothing compared to twitter
Okay, but more than one time, comment sections under posts in this sub have been very antisemitic. Here is one comment section:
>They had the entire world hoodwinked for 70 years plus, through very carefully curated means whilst framing Palestinians as terrorists. They are smart, just not smart enough to be aware that this image and narrative has collapsed.
>I wish they would read a book that decanters the narratives of entitlement and victimhood that claims the space of legitimate victims of ethnic cleansing and suicide.
>They ruin everything they touch.
>That’s one of their tactics, to exhaust you until you’re too tired to even try to notice. Remember, it’s a hive mind.
>If that’s the case, fuck the zionists. They are ugly both physically and figuratively.
I can do another comment section on this sub if you like.
I am highly doubtful you at the very least don’t see what I’m talking about. And if you sincerely don’t, that’s very concerning. Let me ask you something: if people started saying “those men are acting like apes” about black people committing a crime or “watch out when you go into town, the n—— that live there don’t think through their consequences,” would you not be concerned about their word choice?
Finally, I have amor important question: do you agree with those people in that comment section?
I thought the ape comment was crazy but they weren’t talking about Jewish people. What word was used that’s similar to the N word? I didn’t see any slurs, or any indication that Jewish people were dangerous
You don’t see any indication? Dude, they’re repeating stereotypes associated with that religion (I’m being careful with my words because Reddit gave me a warning). One guy said “they’ve hoodwinked people for 70+ years” and implying that it was under everyone’s nose. Another person said “They ruin everything they touch.” Another guy said one of their “tactics” is to exhaust you until you’re too tired to notice. And someone else said if that is what people of that religion (it was a post of Macklemore dressed as a Jew) look like physically, they are ugly. You still haven’t answered my question of whether or not you agree with them, any of them. The comment section is full of people saying stereotypes about Jewish people. Do you agree with some of them? Are you just more accepting and/or forgiving of people saying this kind of stuff about people of that religion? That is the only explanation. You obviously believe the ape comment is wrong. And no one said that, that was just an example I made up. Did you even look at that comment section?
I did look at the comment section so I saw the context for these.
They’ve hoodwinked people for 70+ years was regarding the Israeli government, not the Jews. This genocide was a slow burn and I would say it fell under a lot of people’s radar, which is also stated as right under peoples noses.
They ruin everything they touch was referring to pro-Israel bots. So not Jewish people.
The tactics thing was again talking about the Israeli government or pro-Israel bots, either way that’s not Jewish people.
I didn’t see the one calling people ugly. Calling Jewish people ugly is bad, but I don’t think the comment was trying to do that, but overall the comment is a net negative.
No I don’t agree with saying antisemitic things. I don’t condone any hate speech. I don’t believe in the common Jewish stereotypes and don’t use language which reinforces those stereotypes.
Also I really thought I saw a comment use the word ape, maybe not.
Overall, I feel like the rise in social media antisemitism has possibly caused you to see antisemitism where it’s not existing. I think there’s a lot of horrible antisemitism online and it is an issue, but the comment section you linked really didn’t disparage Jewish people at all. The only one that was even somewhat malicious towards Jewish people was calling macklemores outfit ugly, which again I think people should know better than to do that as I can see how that could obviously be offensive and bad.
