    “Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”

    ― Jean-Paul Sartre

    I guess we have to change it to “pro-Semites” in this day and age but the point still stands. Have fun trying to explain how being anti-Antifa and anti-StopAntisemitism are polar opposites tho, at least if you’re the type to use words responsibly. StopAntisemitism is obviously not.

    At a time where the far right is surging and a billionaires fund them, a youtuber concerned with starving kids is the villain here. Sounds about right with this stupid planet vegeta-stare

    this is your reminder that “StopAntisemitism” is literally the project of one committed zionist in long island with nothing better to do all day. it’s not even an org per se, it’s a more institutionalized libsoftiktok

    This seems like the dumbest possible angle they could take if they’re trying to win hearts and minds. They more noise they make about Ms. Rachel the more it makes them look bad

      Hasbara is powerful. I have a client who tried to tell me that “The 50th anniversary release of Pink Floyd’s Wish You Were Here is great, it’s a shame Roger Waters is a raging anti-semite”. I looked it up. He’s just in favor of ending the genocide in Palestine, and is willing to face prison time for it.

        Roger Waters is a long time Palestine advocate, at a time when the hasbara machine was way more powerful. Its effects lingers.
