This one seriously pisses me off because it's straight up illiterate and has zero concept of what's going on - finance took over pharma, slashed R&D, and jacked up the prices of drugs already in existence. so you can't even come to this conclusion without living in a loving fantasy land.

see this is a great hot take, because you just know it was deliberately produced as a hot take, but it skillfully juxtaposes multiple (largely unimportant) things people get passionate about in ways that maximize odiousness, while having just enough of an underlying point (much auteur theory is bullshit) that it makes you want to argue with it LGD has issued a correction as of 21:48 on Dec 17, 2019 |

YaketySass posted:She's right and she's even adressing your point in the tweet. I’m Jewish, she’s wrong. the Palestinian people are Semites and there’s an incredible amount of outspoken and casual bigotry against them. I posted a while back there was some lunatic in my doctors office yelling into his phone about how the IDF should go in and murder all the “terrorists” and put everyone else into re-education camps. They’re expected to die quietly and any sort of advocating for them is being criminalized both in America and abroad. Erasing that bigotry from the term is abhorrent, and reinforces the ideal that Jews are more important than Palestinians.

This is about erasing Palestinian people from the term when outspoken bigotry against them is the mainstream acceptable position. Just because she “addressed” the point doesn’t make it correct, nor addresses the inherent contradiction it presents when you say antisemitism only applies to Jews, when the Jewish ethnostate project involves wiping out another group of Semitic people that is wholeheartedly endorsed by governments around the world.

"antisemitism" is understood in the English language to refer to prejudice against Jews specifically, regardless of whether that is a precise translation of the etymology. It refers to a meaningfully distinguishable ideological tendency from bigotries against other people assigned to the same 1800s-assed racial clade, and the usage of a specific term some dead phrenologists came up with to lump a buncha groups with no common identity together is a historical accident not iron law all must follow or be unwoke.

Yeah, the etymology doesn't actual match up with current usage of the word, welcome to the English language. Now stop loving with it to try and score political points.

Yeah, the etymology doesn't actual match up with current usage of the word, welcome to the English language. Now stop loving with it to try and score political points. This is loving pathetic and disgraceful. Acknowledging that the Palestinian people, a Semitic people, face unique oppression does nothing to take away from the bigotry faced by Jewish people. Goddamn liberals ITT want to not feel too bad about a genocidal machine that wants to put every last Palestinian in the grave and get a gold star of approval from the rest of the world for it. Fact of the matter is that seeing the Palestinians as human beings, as people like Bernie Sanders and Jeremy Corbyn have, means that they're somehow anti-Semitic, as the massive propaganda machine worldwide has demanded. BDS is being criminalized here and in the UK. There's a massive multi-million dollar propaganda machine to cover for the brutalization, torture, and other crimes against humanity as part of a larger genocidal action to create a racially pure ethnostate over the graves of countless innocent people. So yes, the term isn't "only" Jews. Sorry if that hurts your feelings, but it's a simple fact.
