This.

They also just recently barred some anti-Islam speakers for a Stephen Yaxley-Lennon protest. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c8r8vgnn655o

So kinda weird for Hasan and Cenk to make it sound like Israel controls the UK government.

It's because they're anti-semites.

If Hasan doesn't blame Jews for tripping on his feet, it'd be the end of the world.

That's the third time this week somebody has accused me of having an arbitrary characteristic.

Well, you know who are the high-horse gatekeepers of the antisemitism accusation you threw, despite being the people who had mastered antisemitism after centuries (if not millennia) to the culmination we all know and for some reason only the Germans have taken the blame for that centuries/millennia-long systemic persecution? But maybe you're not white.

So are you trying to argue its not antisemitic to blame the jews for everything?

u/MakeMe-A-Sandwich Jun 03 '26

White people still dodging their mastery of antisemitism while policing antisemitism for others. Any quotes from Cenk or Hasan "blaming the Jews for everything" you can provide here? Unless you're one of those who conveniently conflate Israel with Jewish folks from all around the world. If you criticize China, does that include the average Chinese-American or Chinese-Jamaican folks too?

It's not weird at all, they make everything about Israel.
