We should be talking about how much anti-Semitism is a part of this, but obviously that’s not happening. https://twitter.com/jeffreygoldberg/status/1347164775889907712
This is how you know there’s no Jewish conspiracy, because more people are talking about a dude in facepaint and a buffalo costume.
Also: the Camp Auschwitz sweater isn’t even a good bit. It fuckin’ sucks.
That’s my 2nd biggest problem with anti-Semitism, honestly. It isn’t ever funny enough. It’s always the same three jokes.
I would kind of like to be surprised by some fresh anti-Semitic premises or rhetoric. But there’s never anything new. It’s always ‘global cabal’ this or ‘exaggerated Holocaust’ that.
I *am* surprised by the fact that you usually need to have had first-hand experience to know that anti-Semitism is a big part of the online, conspiracy-theory MAGA movement.
Nazi stuff was EVERYWHERE yesterday. Everywhere. Including some Congresswoman who said “Hitler was right...” to make a point she just as easily could’ve made by quoting John fucking Updike.
last thing: the Left def has problems with anti-Semitism. But at least the Left is constantly trying to root it out and address it. Labour *disembowled* itself over it.
On the right? You get Congresspeople soft-shoeing to Mein Kampf to score points, dollars, votes. Disgusting.
