To think that antisemitism now needs to be tackled in the strongest possible way?

The Bondi thread in chat was eye opening.

Forty pages and a lot of it whataboutery, excuses and vile antisemitism.

It’s disgusting.

It needs to be called out. It needs to be rooted out.

I feel so sorry for the Jewish communities everywhere. How can they possibly feel safe?

That’s part of what makes it so shocking. They seem normal and nice. Until you find out they’re not.

MMHQ have deleted your antisemitic post, "Susan", but if I were you I'd ask them to do you a further favour and delete this one too. It's beyond embarrassing.

How it was anysemitic? Explain please

Worse than that, I met a guy (not dating!) who in all other respects was great: witty, good company, multi-skilled, apparently intelligent. And yet one day it cropped up in conversation that he was absolutely convinced that all those Holocaust images and movies from WW2 were fake. He's in his 40s, so old enough to know better. I still can't get my head round this. There was simply no reasoning with him. He didn't seem to have any other manias, like thinking the moon landing was fake, and although he had expressed mildly antivax sentiments there was nothing to identify him as a complete lunatic. The last I heard of him, he was reacting to 7/10 as a false flag exercise by Israel.

Just trying to catch up but what on earth is this????!

😱😱😱

Yep. I've largely given up on CITME.

It was implied to me there years ago that anybody who went against the general CITME tide was a paid shill.

I'm still waiting for my cheque...

Oh yes I've been accused of that.

I've also been accused of being an apprentice to another pro Israel poster on the board.

Some of them have very vivid imaginations ...

I going to attempt (probably quite badly) as to why there is rising anti semitism both in the UK and the West:

It is a combination of two unlikely groups coming together:

  1. Anti semitism amongst the UK Muslim population, more prevalent amongst the 18-34 age group, university educated and female populations.

For example 25% do not believe that 7th October attack by Hamas was real despite video evidence by Hamas itself of the attack.

Half of British Muslims believe that Jews have too much power over British Government policy.

https://henryjacksonsociety.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/HJS-Deck-200324-Final.pdf

  1. The left predominantly 18-34 and female. The left since Marx has always viewed issues through the lens of an oppressor and the oppressed or bourgeoisie and proletariat. The stronger side regardless of how the conflict came about is always the oppressor. So in the case of Israel then because it a) retaliated (as most countries would done) and more importantly b) is the stronger of the two sides then automatically they are the oppressors. interestingly in 1948 when Israel was attacked by its stronger surrounding Arab neighbours then Israel was the darling of the left. However once they became the stronger side they became the enemy of the left. RT

And "disproving" her is a pointless exercise because the people who lap up that sort of crap are not actually interested in a reality check. Hence the futility of posting anything on the CITME board.

Few people criticize Cadice here. Those people havent really listened to her talking about why she has those opinions. Just listen to it and than make your judgement, or even better , prove her wrong.

@Susan7654

The fact that she calls out Israeli government doesnt make her anti- jewish. She calls out USA governement too- and it doesnt mean she is anti american.

Jewish people dont like what she says about Israeli governemnt and call her antisemitic. That is not fair and twisted logic.
I am not supporting her but I love history and beeing accurate with facts.

Jewish people, and others, call her antisemitic because she says things like "Jewish people hate black people" and "Jewish people were in control of the slave trade" and "The only reoson Jewish people are in pornography is because Christ sucks" and "The idea that Mengele did experiments on Jewish people is bizarre propaganda" and that a Rabbi is "drunk on Christian blood".

And Candice has those opinions because she's an unhinged publicity seeking antisemite who's making money and a career out of pushing unhinged antisemitic conspiracy theories.

Well, obviously Hamas do something else that these people place far above the safety and wellbeing of the Gazans, despite what they so performatively and self-righteously claim.

I wonder what it is.

Yes I wonder too but have a pretty good idea of course.

ThatCyanCat · 22/12/2025 15:00

HappyFace2025 · 22/12/2025 14:57

Why would anyone in their right mind do that? Seriously, don't they realise that Hamas is the enemy and don't have Palestinians welfare at heart?

Agree. I clicked on a Candace Owen short just before bed last night (why God, why?).
It was absolutely rancid. Telling black Americans to wake up & recognise their enemy isn't the white man, but 'Jews'. I could hardly believe what I was hearing. This is off the scale. Evil.
Couldn't sleep for hours, just thinking about this, & so many views & comments in agreement.
I'm not Jewish- I've got absolutely no idea what to do, & how to help.
It's like being stuck in a terrible nightmare. Feel so helpless.

@Lindos1 I just looked at Candace on X & was shocked that she was writing such divisive content. I know she often puts opinions out there but this is whipping up black people into a rage saying they were all prolific slave traders. I don’t think we should be held responsible for the actions of our ancestors. Otherwise how do you ever move on from things like WW2? We have learned to get along with the Germans for example.

Yes I recall someone saying it was because they said they were 'collaborators with Israel'. Imagine being a person who thinks it is OK to shoot a citizen in the head for going against Hamas. That's a particular low, but there are many other lows.

The hate marchers seem to love going for lows too. Pictures of Para-shooters on the backs of the delightful hate (they say peace) marchers, after Hamas and other terrorists came in on parachutes to rape and murder people.

Attacking a man who dared to hold a sign against Hamas - unbelievable but there you go. Deluded and much more that mere useful idiots.

Jews form 0.5% of the UK population in England and Wales. Many leaders simply don't think it's worth trying to protect them or their interests because they don't have the numbers.

Today, we walked down George street in Sydney CBD and unbelievably the usual Palestinian supporting morons were out in force waving their stupid flags. It beggars belief it really does.

Completely believable. They were at it while October 7 was still happening and Israel hadn't begun any response yet, they were at it right after the Manchester attack. But did they say anything about Hamas shooting Gazans in the head when the ceasefire was announced? Do they say anything about Hamas embedding itself under schools and hospitals and using aid money to fund tunnels and terror? Do they ever call on Hamas to disarm and surrender and start working towards a two state solution under other Arab leaders? Do they fuck.

And then they claim moral superiority and pretend they care about preserving life.

THIS 100% and more and more people see them for what they are.
