can't tell you how damaging it is for such a prominent boycott action against "Jew hate", supported by such a rogues gallery of reactionaries & racists, gov ministers, Islamophobes & anti-immigrant shockjocks, to be focused around the figure of a Black man. #NoSafeSpaceForJewHate
Wiley spread racialising discourses from a large platform, we need to hold him to account for that & engage in deep radical antiracist education efforts. But I face AS, my descendants have more. The main, representative tormentors of Jewish ppl have not usually looked like Wiley.
where were the boycotts when the Telegraph put antisemitic conspiracy theory on its front page? Why did no one boycott the Tories when Braverman & Rees Mogg barked about Cultural Marxism & "Soros"? Or all the weirdo white English politicians & royals who dress as Nazis for fun?
if your target's Twitter a consistent fascism- (racism-misogyny- transphobia-)enabling website for yrs then where were the boycotts for all the prominent white antisemites? The virulent racists who not only don't get boycotts, they get syndicated columns or ministerial cars?
twitter can't stop racism. the law and the state can't stop racism. selective, gestural boycotts can't stop racism. philosemitism can't stop racism. a fight against antisemitism that reproduces & engages in other forms of racism...can't stop racism.

we have to stop racism.
