The attitude of other party members went from anti-Zionist to anti-jew on more than one occasion. If he isn’t antisemitic, he’s doing a damn good job of looking the part.


which occasions? source?

Why is this anti-semitic? Are they criticizing wealthy people because they are jewish, or because they control the wealth in a way that they consider unfair? I mean, do they also criticize jewish actors, entertainers, etc? Because if they don't then it's pretty obvious to me that it has little to do with them being jewish, and more with them being bankers or having a strong influence in the world's political and economic agenda (which they dislike).


I think you need to familiarise yourself with the 'are you anti-semitic?' test, bud.

It's even simpler than that.

The leader of the labour party has come out and said they are not doing enough to tackle anti-semitism in the labour party. Why say that if there isn't any anti-semitism in the labour party. :mellow:

Smashed it.

Also, why do 83% of Jews think the Labour party has a problem with anti-semitism? Is it all in their heads, is it just Jews being Jews complaining as usual? There is a fundamental disconnect in the Labour party and the left as a whole, where because Jews are seen as privileged and 'more white' than other minorities, anti-semitism is brushed aside in contrast to concerns about the asian or black community. It's the height of hypocrisy.

0/5 and I totally agree with point 6, so I guess I'm not anti-semitic. However, this doesn't explain why the mural is anti-semitic. It seems to target bankers and the wealthy, rather than jewish identity... referring to point 3 of your "are you anti-semitic?" test, it seems like people being offended by this are the ones inferring that "Rothschild" or any other stereotypical wealthy jewish person, equates to "jew" or jewish identity.

If you don't think that mural is anti-semitic, is there any point? Look at the big hook noses on em'

It's not really something that caught my attention tbh. Looking at the noses now, 2nd and 4th from the left don't seem to have big noses at all though.

The chief executive of the Holocaust Educational Trust is criticising Corbyn's apology as he didn't condemn past incidents of labour party members targeting them.

Conservatives right now:



Still waiting on a response to the polling of Jews and the Labour MPs involved in the marches, btw.

I wonder who Corbyn supporters mean when they say a 'very powerful special interest group' is conspiring against their leader? :rolleyes:

This is even more endemic than I thought some days ago when I made the thread.

anti NWO/illuminati. Wealthy old businessmen and bankers, noses grow with age.. Are all of them even Jewish? Or does your keen eye for races just categorize them as Jewish ?

This is really how I see it tbh. I mean, if it's all about a "big nose = Jew" thing, then they aren't all jewish (since two of them don't have big noses), making it clearly an anti-NWO and anti-bankers/wealthy thing. And if all of the depicted are indeed jewish, then the nose stereotype isn't really a main theme of the mural, as some have it and some don't.
