Migrants responsible for increase in antisemitism, says Merz

Typical CDU Nazi-Shit.

Do we have antisemitic immigrants? Yes. Do we have racist Germans? Yes. Do we have antisemitic Germans? Also yes.

CDU: Should we do something about the "bio"-German Nazis? Nah, let's just blame foreigners, lest we offend our voter base or party members.

So stupid to redefine what antisemitism means and then to blame the migrants.

I'd be one of those 'immigrants' who he would call 'antisemitic', but once you look into it you realize I'm anti authorianism and anti genozide in any part of the world, not anti Jews.

Crazy how literally everything is the migrants fault. You have to wait for your dentists appointment? Migrants fault! Nazis are the party with the second most votes? Migrants fault! Arson attacks against refugee homes? Believe it or not: migrants fault!

Again and again this flawed logic where you either approve of everything Israel does or you are an antisemite... it's high time we start distinguishing between the country of Israel and people of Jewish descent (Jewish people should learn the distinction too, seeing how this "antisemite" argument has been repeated by Jewish communities outside Israel).

As for Merz (and Germany, and Europe, and - alas - apparently the world in general), it's a real shame that the moronic dichotomy of humanity into arbitrary "us" and "them" (and subsequent blaming of everything on "them") is becoming mainstream rather than staying relegated to the far right (and groups of kids that bully other kids).

Ironically, this is the same exact world vision that gave us that nazi-fascism that so thoroughly embraced antisemitism and so methodically acted on it.

And corrupt conservatives are an even bigger factor. Especially the ones that stoke the fires of fear and injustice.

American playbook

Believe it or not, enacting genocide is the biggest cause

Or maybe the shit that israel is doing, is more responsible for it? I do not know, just, maybe? A bit?

This man is a fucking disgrace.

I’m not antisemite BUT the Israeli government are a bunch of hypocrites and criminals . And the world is still looking to the other side… and now blaming on immigrants?

We don't hate outsiders, it's just those dirty outsiders that do! /s

I mean, sure, there's a grain of truth here. Arabs, and Muslims more generally, tend to be suspicious of Jews because of the history around the establishment of Israel (the relationship was way better than Christians-Jews before that). It doesn't make this not ironic.

says the guy from a country known/infamous for thier anti-semitism.

i think peoples misinterpretating this comment: im saying hes the one to talk calling people antisemties, when his country was the hotbed for it in the past. hence the word infamous.
