Very long thread on the "good" people who follow another Jew hate account here.
Here's another Leftist account that obsessively posts anti-Jewish racism.
Neo-Nazi grade stuff like this.

I'm not going to explain the "chosen people" inversion here. Suffice to say it's fuelled anti-Jewish hatred since medieval times.
Anyway, here's the account profile.
It says it all.

This account posts anti-Jewish invective almost daily.
Here's some other examples.
Here's some other examples.
And this one about "Zionist scab saboteurs"
And this one - "Zionist lobbyists out"
This one about the @BoardofDeputies and @JewishLabour and yet more "Zionist scabs" is pretty representative of the stuff that this account churns out daily.
And yet, once again, i find that this toxic racist account counts amongst its few thousand followers a long list of "good" people. Labour people. Union people. Anti-racist people. Progressive people.
"How can this be", you ask?
Well.
"How can this be", you ask?
Well.
The answer must be 1 of the following:
1. They have never noticed the daily stream of anti-Jewish hatred appearing in their TLs from this account.
2. They have noticed it but didn't wonder why they were following that account
3. They noticed & they broadly agree

2. They have noticed it but didn't wonder why they were following that account
3. They noticed & they broadly agree
4. They noticed it, don't agree but think "well, it's a point of view that maybe i should think about"
5. They noticed it and think "i'm not sure about that, but then i do seem to agree with that account on everything else so maybe...."
5 explanations for good people following

5 explanations for good people following
..a toxic - and prolifically so - racist account.
I'm not going to guess at which of the 5 applies to the people and organisations i'm about to list.
Perhaps they can explain it to us instead?
So - are you ready?

Ok. Let's go.
First up Lab councillor @charmaine725 follows a Jew hate account. (not the 1st either for her). Far from it.

Next is Bill Curran @thearaig - membership Secretary for Caithness Sutherland & Ross CLP.
Bill follows a racist account.

Astonishingly, it turns out that @mygibbo the Secretary of @LpoolWaltonCLP also follows this toxic account. Hard to explain that one, obviously. Note - Alan has a real habit here.
Why would @BDTUC representing trade unions in Belfast follow this racist Jew hating account?
Why don't you ask them?
Why don't you ask them?
Turning briefly towards academia, with (i kid you not) a focus on "Jewish-Christian relations", we can all wonder why @Acottrellboyce follows an obsessive Jew hating account.
To be fair, it could actually be for research purposes. I do realise that.

Here we have a union - one with considerable form. @bfawu1 follows a Jew hate account.
Shocked, i am. Honestly.

Well, we're only at the "B"s and already, i dunno, it looks like there might be a pattern emerging of Left wing accounts that make up the followers of a Jew hating account. Whaddya think?
Could this be a thing?
Could this be a thing?
Next up - back to academia -is former
@sheffhallamuni Head of Dept (till a year or so ago) @BrianHTweed
Brian is very "active" in the fields of both @UKLabour and Jew hate.
So, his reasons for following this account are a mystery to me.

How about a former Lab Leader of a District Council who is also a teaching assistant?
Yep, @CherylBLabour follows this racist account too.
You could ask her why.

Ok - time for a break.
Back with more later.
As you can see, it's a long, long list.
Find a Jew hate account and the list of @UKLabour officers and elected representatives that follow it is as long as it is inevitable.

Ok, back with some more good people who are unlucky enough to find themselves following an out and out Jew hate account.
Over to Sutton Coldfield where @Manish_Vesey is following our Jew hater.
Maybe ask @UKLabour Cllr Manish Puri why that is?

No surprise to anyone to find that obsessive anti-Jewish racist (allegedly) Colin O'Driscoll @odriscoll_colin of @LabourInt follows another anti-Jewish account.
Hey Devizes Young Labour people! @DevizesYoung
Cool & groovy and very @UKLabour though you are, why do you follow an obsessively anti-Jewish account?

No thread about anti-Jewish racists connected to @UKLabour folk would be complete withoout a shout out to @edwardpoole1975 of @LabourEnfield
Ed just happens to have ended up following yet another anti-Jewish racist. Again.

George Aylett is a big noise in @UKLabour apparently (according to his mum).
Anyway, even if that's not true, what is true is that @GeorgeAylett is following yet another anti-Jewish account.
Well done George.

Unions are great! Especially when bits of them find themselves following virulently anti-Jewish accounts. All entirely by accident, obviously.
Hello @GMBPoliticsLDN
Hello @GMBPoliticsLDN
And talking of unions, here's @unitetheunion activist @FieldHell who has ended up following an obsessively anti-Jewish account but never noticed, or something.
Our shout out to the unions continues here with @unisontheunion West Sussex branch chair Ian Harvey @ianandclare who finds himself following an anti-Jewish hate account but obviously had no intention to do so etc etc etc
Well, @unisontheunion is playing a blinder here because now along comes member and Quaker and all round good egg @Jacob_T_Webb who is following a Jew hate account.
Maybe ask Jacob why that is?
Maybe ask Jacob why that is?
Over to Wales where @UKLabour candidate for Clwyd West Joshua Hurst @JoshuaHurstCW finds himself following an account that churns out anti-Jewish hatred but has obviously never noticed that ever. At all.
Staying in Wales we have another @UKLabour candidate who has been unlucky enough to find himself following a toxic anti-Jewish hate account. Life is cruel.

Another break now. Back in a bit.
Even us hasbara slaves working away for just a hint of gold need to eat occasionally, even though @stephenpollard has no intention of helping us fund the essentials of Zionist life like food. Can you lobby the lobby on my behalf please?
