Yes, people frequently attempt to hold all Jews accountable for how Palestinians are treated. Are you new?

Does anyone hold all Jews accountable for how Palestinians are treated?
This whole damn comments section:
LOL.
White women are rightfully held accountable for racism and bias despite their history and struggles; theres no reason black women can’t do the same when witness to bias against another minority. It’s not OK to support an anti-semite any more than it’s ok to support a racist. Period.
What needs to be remembered here is this - Tamika Mallory is one of the heads of arguably the biggest intersectional activist group that held two of the largest protests in US history. She referred to a man who is anti-semitic as hell as GOAT. She didn’t just go to a NOI meeting and say that he made a few good points,…
Are these Trump supporting whites leading figures in an inclusive, left leaning social movement?

Some of the people who don’t want bigot-sympathizers as movement leaders are neither white nor women.
No. Literally nobody said that.
Now try it as a Jewish woman who lost a good portion of her family in the Holocaust.
It’s also silly to argue that Kellyanne Conway, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, or Hope Hicks haven’t been publicly attacked/condemned for their fealty to Donald Trump. As they should continue to be.
The same structures that hold up anti-blackness hold up anti-Semitism in the United States. They are different beasts, but they hold a connection. However, a rise in anti-Semitic attacks is always a canary in the coal mine about the rise of hate.
If this were the only example of Anti-Semitism or other non-Kosher (forgive the pun) positions that have been connected with the Women’s March or one of the 4 so-called “organizers” (they took the event over from some Hillary Clinton supporters and then left Hillary off their list of 77 “women who paved the way”) then…
Does the NOI do some good things? Sure.
You don’t think people are heaping shit on any of the women associated with Trump? That is almost unbelievable - are you being facetious here?
Also, saying such doesn’t strike you in the slightest as ‘whataboutism’?|
A leader of a supposedly all-inclusive, intersectional movement attends a speech by Farrahkahn, a man…
Funny how Trump was immediately deemed guilty by association without even interacting with the contemptible persons who endorsed his movement. Here we have somebody actively patronizing an explicitly anti-Semitic movement, but “it’s complicated”....
They are constantly asked to defend and explain the ridiculous shit that comes out of his mouth. That’s literally their job, so I don’t know how it can be said they’re not having their feet held to the fire over it.
“Miss Mallory would have had no way of knowing he was going to go in that direction”
Sorry, but there’s no way Mallory would accept her own excuses if we were talking about a white activist who refused to denounce the leader of a white supremacist group. Farrakhan is a hate monger and the Nation of Islam is a hate group per the SPLC (a group that can certainly be called into question, but it’s still…
