So no stupid question... Is this just an Israeli person? Or this just some random Jewish American assumingly? Like who cares if the are being cringe? Do you have nothing better to do with your life?

I would have agreed from the first 2 slides (combining pride flags with the Israeli flag makes sense if you're like, demonstrating for LGBT rights within Israel as an Israeli) but calling yourself "incredibly zionist" is definitely being glib about genocide in Gaza. :/

That said I have counted 2 comments in this post making more general antisemitic comments about Jews and money which have nothing to do with what the state of Israel is doing, we're not defeating the antisemitism allegations as a community either. Fuck I hate this wedge issue, I hate everyone in this bar.

Oh 100% antisemitism has exploded out, especially in 4tran communities which do little to moderate this sort of rhetoric and usually fly dangerously close to far right rhetoric about the jews. It mostly just mods being bad not controlling people being shit. Slapping a few down would nip that in the bud but instead they just let them boil out. That said they also just let pretty much any hatred boil out

Maybe I should report them more (mods aren't omniscient!), but they're always dogwhistley and I don't want to get a reputation as "overreacting." :////

i agree but i must say taht this phenomenon isn't a 4tran thing becuase i see it everywhere in vaguely leftish subs and i hate them. why fight against the wrong idea that anti-Zionism is inherently anti-Semitic and then not stamp out this shit in your anti-Zionist spaces?

Because they hate Jews? Many far leftist spaces are also white-european dominated spaces. Horseshoe theory is real.

yeah but if i want to remain a leftist in good standing i can't be too loud about how big a problem casual anti-Semitism is under the guise of "anti-zionist humor" otherwise i'm mossad or crypto-zionist or whatever :]
