The situation at Columbia has even drawn the attention of the White House, joining local leaders in urging calm.

“While every American has the right to peaceful protest, calls for violence and physical intimidation targeting Jewish students and the Jewish community are blatantly antisemitic, unconscionable, and dangerous,” White House spokesperson Andrew Bates said in a statement shared with CNN on Sunday.

    Demanding a ceasefire is not equal to antisemitism. These dumbass politicians can’t fucking figure that out.

      It’s crazy because all these people saying that “genocide is bad” is antisemitic are really saying that Jews have a genetic predisposition toward commiting genocide, which is actually really fucking antisemitic.

      In case anyone’s still unclear:

      Disliking someone because they are Jewish is antisemitic.

      Disliking someone because they are commiting genocide is actually a good thing.

      It’s antizionism, which zionists try their best to conflait with antisemitism because they need a shield for their shitty actions.
