A particularly nasty side to antisemitism — it’s been part of Ye’s message recently though it is by no means unique to him — is this implication that they’re just the ones saying out loud what the rest of us are thinking. And I just want to say, unequivocally, fuck you. You don’t get to claim me. You don’t get to use me as a bullet against people I care about. It’s not what I think, and I’m confident it’s not what any of my friends think because if I wasn’t confident, they wouldn’t be my friends. I’m not silently agreeing with you — I’m VOCALLY disagreeing with you. Your beliefs are pathetic. Go fuck yourself.
not me realizing that people are...defending alex jones? for "calling out" ye west? you know that he didn't "call out" ye for being antisemitic, right. he did it because ye was being Too Obviously Antisemitic. ye killed his plausible deniability.
alex jones has made his living for over a decade on walking RIGHT up to that line and not overtly crossing it. he goes off about a "globalist conspiracy" every time he's on air. he talks about the "jewish mafia." ye just walked right over the line and said "Hitler was a good guy actually." alex jones isn't horrified at what ye said. it's that ye said it OUT LOUD, ON AIR, WHILE STREAMING.
i refuse to live in an era of rehabilitation of alex fucking jones. jesus christ you guys.
Full offense but if as a queer goy your first response to “Jewish people are in danger because of Kanye West’s antisemitic comments” is “they’ll come for queer people after they come for the Jews, we need to act” you should really be asking yourself why you need to make this about queer people and not Jewish people to care enough to act. Like yes this isn’t good for anyone but why does it need to be about you for you to care. Queer Jews are already in danger from this. Are we not human enough for you to give a shit about us?
