Anti-Semitism in UK Labour megathread

[Zaybay]

You guys are really using the poet that wrote a poem as proof of antisemitism? That is really flimsy. It seems more like you are trying to connect dots that arent really there. Is their an antisemitism problem in Labor? Yes. But this is just stretching.

Edit: In fact, doing this probably makes it harder to fix the Antisemetic problem.

[Sestak]

I love how all the people who say "dogwhistles don't exist" re: the GOP in the US are now trying to cite a poem recitation as dogwhistling.

Double standard much?

The guy who quoted that poem has no interest in fixing the antisemitism problem.

Tbf I’ve never heard of Ernest Jones- and tbf to the staffers who wrote the speech there’s nothing mentioning that he’s an anti-Semite in the first page of google searches.

I very much doubt JCs team sat around a table and said what poet can we include to get the antisemite vote- and if they were surely they would have mentioned someone people have actually heard of?

[EPG]

A small amount of basic knowledge about the sociology of ideological anti-Semitism in the UK is also useful. The number of people who know and care about the poet, and people ideologically appreciative of anti-Semitic dog-whistles that they can decode using knowledge of that poet, must be approximately zero.

The people calling Corbyn an anti-semite don't like socialists either.

There you have it, a socialist bookstore contained a book written by a Jew killed in the Holocaust, so therefore the left is anti-semitic.

right, but other racists will post this as proof (somehow) that he isn't racist.

meanwhile, the Malayasian PM was in the UK this week and he wanted in on the fun link

"the problems in the Middle East started with the creation of Isreal"  I've seen people make that stupid argument here!

Hahaha, keep on crying and whining in between your establishment bootlicking. You won't have any tears left for when he takes power.

[dead0man]

who are you talking to?  I don't see anybody here crying.  There is a lot of pointing and laughing at the bigots.  Are you projecting perhaps?

Don't worry dead0, you're just an innocent soul influenced by the mass media's depiction of Corbyn. Not your fault for falling for the lies that you've consumed.

Ray Goldfield, on the other hand, is a hack of an especially potent sort. He's beyond cure.

Anyway, it's just going to be very sweet seeing all the smear attacks on Corbyn fall apart. People are tired of being sent down the tunnel. The people of Britain will seek the light and vote for the man who's fit for the job.

No-one believes you and the lying right-wing media either.

We're not crying. We're getting ready for war, hopefully a metaphorical one.

No matter how much you try to lull is into a false sense of security, we've been here before and we're ready.

The Zionist smear campaign, even if victorious at destroying Corbyn, will only increase anti-Israel sentiment in the UK left. This is what Netanyahu's bromance with Trump is also doing in the US.

Yeah mate it's the Jews' fault great take

Nah, the most normal candidate always wins. Dancing queen May versus Zio-obsessed Corbyn.

Guess it's normal for someone to do this:

[Slow Learner]

I do think May is a great deal more human than people give her credit for, she's just very awkward on camera.

I'd certainly consider her a lot more human than dead-behind-the-eyes Boris.

[America Needs R'hllor]

I do think May is a great deal more human than people give her credit for, she's just very awkward on camera.

I'd certainly consider her a lot more human than dead-behind-the-eyes Boris.

And she's definitely a much better person than the hate-mongering lier Labour is defending so religiously.

She has a very solid history of being a hate monger herself you know; like in terms of actually putting policy into practice, as opposed to Corbyn's signalling

Their ilk has never needed an excuse before, so this doesn't really worry me much.

Shame

Are you blaming this on Labour?

[BBD]

^^ yes, many in the Jewish community are terrified by Corbyn Premiership, I've seen it first hand when I used to live in England, you should pay a visit to any synagogue and you'll see how anxious the Jewish community are..

Anxious and terrified of the man who will stand up against the interests that are ruthlessly obliterating their country and the world, rather than the woman and her party that are currently aiding in the destruction. Yep. Seems perfectly alright. Totally not delusional at all.
