A disgusting comparison.

As evidence of Thunberg’s antisemitism, the Israeli government pointed to her use of “terms such as ‘genocide,’ ‘siege’ and ‘mass starvation’ in reference to Israel’s actions in Gaza.”

Many of these views are well within the American mainstream. A Quinnipac poll from August found that half of American voters believe that Israel is committing a genocide. Thirty-nine percent of Jewish Americans believe Israel is committing a genocide, according to an October Washington Post poll. Israel’s Ministry of Diaspora Affairs, which produced the report, deemed Thunberg a more dangerous threat than Fuentes, who has said Judaism is incompatible with Western civilization and called for a “total Aryan victory.”

    If you conflate anti-zionism with antisemitism long enough, you’ll dilute the word to the point where everyone will self identify as “antisemitic”.

    Of course they would say that. Fuentes is a fascist like the Israeli government, so they have a lot in common.

    There are a lot of prominent influencers on the radical left who are trying to destroy the Jewish cultural tradition of killing children. When will the left learn to respect other cultures?

    I hope so. I want to live in a world where Thunberg is more influential than the literal neo-Nazi Fuentes.
