Fmr Obama speechwriter Sarah Hurwitz laments to Jewish Federation that people are finding content from "Al Jazeera and Nick Fuentes" on social media and seeing videos of "the carnage in Gaza."
Holocaust education has backfired in part as people see Palestinians as Jews' victims, she adds.
"They think the lesson of the Holocaust is…you fight the big powerful people hurting the weak people."
And also antisemitism covers Palestinians; they're almost genetically identical to Jews.
i mean, one has to always remember that it's not really about blood or genetic composition or religion, it's about empire. saying they are semitic or indigenous is a front, an invention, a trick to give some rhetorical cover. If whiteys have made south africa in the arabian peninsula elsewhere, you also won't hear the end of how they belong there
They are more Semitic than the Germans that left Germany to colonize the middle east and do... oh they did the Germany thing.
That's not what antisemitism means, it has always just been a more clever-sounding way to say "I hate Jews".
True… but I have seen neofascists explicitly reject Palestinians on grounds of their Jewish heritage, and I have noticed that, in general, there is an overlap between Jew-hatred and Arab-hatred. I have seen antisemites blame Jews for the influx of Middle Easterners moving to Europe and its former settler-colonies.
So while I don’t apply ‘antisemitism’ in its literal sense like @Cat_Daddy@hexbear.net would, sometimes I wonder if it is worthwhile to quibble with those who do.
