well, I was going to make fun of you for being American but I guess I can't.

Is it this 60k follower twitter poster's fault that the most powerful governments on Earth have all been running under the violent assumption for nearly a century that anti-semitism = anti-zionism? Do they really need the help, or is he just pointing out that this absurd focus on the "safety" and "feelings" of a group of white people during a genocide committed (rightly or wrongly) in their name is part of what allows Zionism to survive when many other white supremacist colonial projects were consigned to history decades ago?

oh yeah fuck that jfc

i never made any contrary claims

the entire premise of your argument is that there's some large proportion of Jews who aren't bloodthirsty zionist genocide supporters and so we should care about their feelings

Do you have any evidence for your claim that he doesn't support Irish resistance to colonialism?

You don't have any evidence of your claim, so you "don't care to hear a defense"? Come on.

wow, he posted? that's incredibly brave of him.

Yeah, people get arrested for posts supporting proscribed groups in the UK. People get arrested for wearing shirts and holding up signs stating support for PA. As a relatively well-known figure in the online media space he's risking that consequence, which can lead to 14 year imprisonment. Hundreds of people have been arrested in the past weeks for stating their support for the group in the UK.

it's his total lack of any serious posts about the Irish question or British occupation of the 6

Do you seriously think the guy who goes out of his way to post in support of Palestine Action after they were proscribed, at risk to himself, and generally takes the strongest line on anti-colonial resistance out of any UK media figure is secretly harbouring pro-British occupation attitudes, directly contradicting basically everything he's ever said on any issue?

Is it a "famine joke" to say that he "views Ireland's potato famine as one of history’s gravest horrors"? https://x.com/eyuplovely/status/1839456840414880231

I feel like you're reaching hard here to pretend like this guy who spends most of his time shitting on the British media (including the "acceptable left") is some kind of evil unionist, just because he's not bothered about catering to the "fears" of white British Jews. Some of it is edgy, some a little off colour, but it's no worse than calling any other white person a cracker.

https://fullfact.org/news/are-majority-british-jews-zionists/

In 2015, a survey found that the majority of British Jews (59%) identified as Zionists, though a much larger proportion (90%) supported Israel’s right to exist as a Jewish state.

So that's 90% meeting the definition of Zionism as an ideology in the UK. Please also note that the Chief Rabbi in the UK (yes, I know he only represents one sect, but the mainstream narrative avoids this fact) regularly intervenes in politics (with full media backing) to shit on progressive/socialist/anti-imperialist causes and support genocide in Palestine. Can we acknowledge that Jews in the UK are, as a subset of white people, extremely radicalised and dangerously pro-genocide?

which of his views/posts would you call "British chauvinism", specifically? what has he said that is "antisemitic", rather than explicitly referring to the British state's policy of criminalising anti-zionist sentiment?

well robbery is sometimes justified so im willing to say free him

AMERICANS STOP THINKING DEMOCRATS WILL SAVE YOU CHALLENGE: DIFFICULTY IMPOSSIBLE

cant access bc blocked bc GDPR what did he do

it's brilliant for a lot of people it just sucks that it's being touted as the "solution" to mass obesity caused by capitalist low quality food supply

so is it all still terrible or

There's a great quote, I think it's Trotsky, about the relative cheapness of life in the years following the outbreak of WW1 vs prior to that. Something about how thousands now perish in a day and nobody blinks when that would be unconscionable a few years before.
