Climate activist Greta Thunberg has been labeled "antisemite of the Week" by the Jewish watchdog group StopAntisemitism following her arrest at an anti-Israel rally. The group criticized Thunberg for aligning with protesters who oppose Israel, accusing her of turning her activism into a platform for anti-Semitism, the New York Post reported.

"She has sadly transformed her activism into a platform for vile Jew-hatred," the organization said.

Thunberg, 21, was arrested on September 4 while demonstrating with Students Against the Occupation, who called on Copenhagen University to cut ties with Israel, including climate change programs. StopAntisemitism founder Liora Rez condemned Thunberg, accusing her of prioritizing hatred for Israel over environmental activism despite Israel's efforts on climate action.

Climate activist Greta Thunberg has been labeled "antisemite of the Week" by the ~~Jewish watchdog~~ anti-palestinian hate group and military industrial complex fanclub StopAntisemitism

The group ~~criticized~~ demonized Thunberg for ~~aligning with~~ supporting protesters who oppose ~~Israel~~ the illegal occupation of Palestine

the New York Compost ~~reported~~ drunkenly shouted.

"She has sadly transformed her activism into a platform for vile Jew-hatred," the ~~organization~~ Islamophobic hate group ~~said~~ deliriously babbled

StopAntisemitism founder Liora Rez ~~condemned~~ slandered Thunberg, falsely accusing her of prioritizing hatred for Israel over environmental activism despite Israel's efforts ~~on climate action.~~ to greenwash their fascist apartheid regime and its ongoing genocide

There, fixed it.

All the Jewish people I know are emphatically against the genocide of Palestinians. So are they antisemitic or am I antisemitic for knowing them???

"Sadly, Greta's hatred of the world's only Jewish nation eclipses her love of the environment. ..."

Well would you look at that: they make no distinction between demanding the university cut ties with Israel, "hatred for Israel", "hatred of the world's only Jewish nation" and "vile Jew-hatred". So for them there's no gap between asking for pressure to stop Israel's active genocide and hating all Jews. It's so absurd and such a blatant attempt at political gaslighting they don't deserve to be taken seriously.

It's a pretty standard technique of ethno-Fascists: the Zionists, just like the Nazis did, claim to represent an entire ethnicity and then cast any criticism of them and their ultra-racist Genocide as being criticism of that ethnicity they claim to represent.

And this is hardly the only propaganda technique Zionists and Nazis have in common: most of the tricks the Zionists use are pretty much Nazi shit with just the names of the ethnicities, places and nations replaced, down to how a lot of what the Zionists claim about Palestinians in Gaza being pretty much what the Nazis claimed about the Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto.

Someone should tell them that speaking out against war crimes and genocide isn't antisemitism

The true joke is that Palestinians are a semetic people too:

Speaking out against Isreal is antisemitic...

But also: ThErE aRe ArAbS iN IsRaEl So ThEy ArEnT rACiSt!

Ok... So if Isreal isn't entirely a Jewish state then being critical of Isreal is NOT equal to being critical of Jews right? Right?

Oh of course it is! Logic doesn't apply here!

I hate this world...

They'd have taken gold by just standing there and explaining their logic to the judges.

Is society ready to admit that Jews don't get a free pass to do whatever the fuck they want anymore clinging to the Holocaust as an excuse?

[-] [email protected] 13 points 3 days ago

Its not even "Jews" most Jews are understandably opposed to genocide, its just israel.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

AIPAC and organisations like stopantisemitism have made it their mission in this world to ensure that there is no public distinction between Jewish people as a whole and the nation of Israel.

"It's OK, I'm Jewish."

"Oh, I'm sorry. Do anything you want, all the time."

"Crime is bad"

"Wow hate black people much"

"Uhhhhh wtf nobody mentioned black people but you dude"

"You're a racist who hates black people, you just said it yourself!"

That's that 2024-level dialogue we've all come to love.

"antisemite of the week" why does this sound like something that came out of an edgy nazi forum, and not from a group against antisemitism?

Being against Israel and its Genocide is as much anti-semitism as being against the Nazis and their Genocide was anti-white.

[-] [email protected] 72 points 4 days ago

These antisemites are implying that all Jews support genocide. That’s pretty fucked up.

I'm doing a ton of sleuthing, and I can't find one article detailing any efforts Israel has made to curb climate change.

[-] [email protected] 37 points 3 days ago

In fact, Israel's attack on Gaza has resulted in emissions from the first 120 days to exceed the annual emissions of 26 individual countries.

[-] [email protected] 17 points 3 days ago

But all those murdered innocent civilians won't be creating any more carbon emissions. Did you factor in that enormous factor?

(/s, morbidly)

[-] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

I bet the carbon footprint of a regular Gazans is a small fraction from the footprint of a settler.

Not all Jews are zionists. Not all zionists are Jews. All zionists are genocidal cunts.

Israel maybe has Judaism as its state religion, but that doesn't make Israel Judaism. Does Israel really think people are that stupid?

[-] [email protected] 12 points 2 days ago

Does Israel really think people are that stupid?

Looking at their propaganda, yes. Yes they do. And their super PACs ensure that the politicians they've pocketed parrot the same lines they say.

[-] [email protected] 77 points 4 days ago

Ah yes, because when I think "Nazi" I think "peaceful protester", not "nation state bombing civilians in occupied territory".

[-] [email protected] 14 points 3 days ago

I wonder how long until the woman I met who is actively in the process of converting to Judaism gets labeled a rabid antisemite for her radical stand of “loudly proclaiming that she and many other Jews oppose the genocide against Palestine”.

[-] [email protected] 61 points 4 days ago

The more pro-Israel people call everything that doesn’t match their beliefs antisemitism, the less antisemitism means to everyone else

[-] [email protected] 15 points 3 days ago

Yep. Prior to last year if person X told me person Y was antisemitic, my opinion of person Y would have dropped.

Today? It's about a 33% chance for each of X, Y or both being pieces of shit.

Anti-semitism? how is that possible, I hate Israel, the most violent Anti-semitic nation on earth.

"Zionist genocide whitewashing group StopAntisemitism has been named antisemite of the week by Everyone With a Goddamn Brain"

[-] [email protected] 47 points 4 days ago

Antisemitism is not being against a war perpetrated and perpetuated by a jewish nation.

[-] [email protected] 27 points 4 days ago

The one thing that makes me most certain that criticism of israeli actions in gaza are warranted is how any form of discussion is labelled "vile hatred" immediately.
I know propaganda exists and i really hope some things get exaggerated or are made up, but no sane person or government would react like that to legitimate concern for civillians.

She must feel great having her good work recognized like that. 🫡
