I'm not in favor of wishing death upon anyone. I find it all rather distasteful, but Bobby Vylans views seem in line with US death penalty practices, don't they? Death to those who commit the terriblest of crimes.
What about the IDF bombing civilians though?
"You're now on a list and expect your phone to mysteriously fail or blow up in the next year?"
What ever you think and say is basically now anti-Semitic, unless you agree and support the exact narrative sold to you by Netanyahu.
You call out unnecessary violence committed by Israel: Anti-Semitic.
You call for a peaceful resolution to this conflict: you Anti-Semitic scum!
Don't think Children's Hospitals are a valid target for bombing: Oh you better believe thats a Anti-Semitic paddlin'.
Don't buy their pagers: You must hate the entire Jewish community as a whole, you Anti-Semitic trash person.
A singer in our country had the agreement that he would only sing on an event for Jewish kids if there were no political statements being made during his performance. So of course the first thing he noticed was a stand handing out pro-Zionist pamphlets.
He got on stage, explained that that agreement was violated, therefore couldn't perform and as a result got called anti-Semetic by one of our political leaders. Which resulted in the artist having to go into hiding, as he now started receiving death threats. The, in my opinion, gigantic piece of trash that called him out insists she did nothing wrong. Because taking responsibility for your actions and words is only something others need to do of course.
So.. Insisting agreements with Jewish organisations are followed: you fucking anti-Semite.
What about the literal Hunger Games they're staging? Couldn't fuckin sleep last night thinking about it...
I think you meant bombing posthumous terrorists. Clearly the US has no problem with that.
Bob Vylan is the band - if they're singling out the frontman, they mean Bobby Vylan (not to be confused with their drummer, Bobbie Vylan). Feels like they might be getting outraged before engaging any reading comprehension...
Well worth checking them out - loads of upcoming dates, all over the UK, EU and US. Get 'em while they're hot!
You mean Big Bob, of course.
Oh yes because they've done nothing to deserve the hate, totally innocent bunch of people.
Imagine how hard it must be for anti-Semitism advocacy groups right now, the amount of mental gymnastics they have to perform in order to continue to be the victim must leave them utterly exhausted. I imagine they can only manage one whiny tweet and then they have to take a week off.

Let's be clear,anti-semitism is wrong, and what's been going on isn't helping matters for israel unaffiliated jewish support groups that are actually doing positive work.
Yeah, these days when I read anything about antisemitic crime I always have to check if it'a actually people being racist or if someone just said israel bad. And of course israel doing their genocide is also driving up actual antisemitic crimes, because plenty of people think that israel=all jews, and understandably people are angry so they look for a "deserving" target. Which israel is also not helping with since their constant cries of antisemitism are implying exactly that.
And in reality it's not even all israelis (not like most people living there these days chose it), and while far too many seem to support the genocide, they're also under heavy propaganda.
Oh absolutely, but the problem is that when those advocacy groups call everyone anti-semitic for calling out war crimes, they lose all credibility.
This only works if the reason they hate you is because you're Jewish. We hate them because they're murdering bumblefucks. Not antisemitic at all.
I'm part Cherokee, I should hate the white man. Not because they're white, but because of the trail of tears and nearly eradicating Indians.
It's not racism in the slightest.
I just love how "anti-Semitism" has become "Israel can do whatever the fuck they want and never face any criticism or consequences because Jews were persecuted in the Holocaust." This now includes Israel committing its own Holocaust on Palestinians.
Remember when Republicans were upset at Universities banning racist speakers?
If not for double standards Republicans would have no standards at all.
It's very gross that jews really do go through awful shit, and republican morons weaponize it to attempt a desperate, transparent lie about a genocide.
The only time republican losers ever use the language of caring about people is when they think they're being sneaky about being evil.
Free Palestine.
The Gaza war is genocide.
Fuck the IDF.
Please prevent me from visiting the genocide loving USA.
On it.
You forgot, A Ditch for the rich, They are bankrupting entire counties that do not bow, hell they even bankrupt the ones that do.
lol@antisemitism
The irony of the zionists killing semites while calling anyone who opposes it antisemitic.
Well, obviously they're the wrong kind of Semites, not the Chosen People. Psssh
Gets orders from twitter. Acts on it. Constitutes sends and email or hand written message.. disregards it?
An artist chanting words on a stage at a show.. Isn't this that freeze peach those Republicans claim to support to their dying breath?
I don't see how calling for the death of an institution that's openly committing warcrimes and even admitting to them, is really that outlandish, especially for an artist during a performance.
Fuck Israel, genocidal scum!
It's antisemitic to report the truth?
Did they spell Bob Dylan wrong?
Took me a second, but I think it's a play on the word "villain"
Kind of a cool name imo
It's this guy https://lemmy.ml/post/32435019
Ohh, I just now made that connection! Clever.
If he decides to still come here (personally I would try not to ever even visit here if I wasn't already here), then he should alternate it with some kind of rhyming version for ICE.
"Death" and "IDF" work pretty well.
Or get Vanilla Ice to bring back "Ice Ice Baby" but make it more of a command instead of just repetition. Ice ICE, Baby.
I want to see ICE blood everywhere. Not one member in the whole org should survive. Not. One.
I don't know Vanilla's politics, but he performed for Trump. So did the Village People, though, so who knows. Maybe Trump's a fan and threw a huge wad of cash at him.
I have no idea either. It was just the first thing I thought of, lol.
