We all know about JK Rowlings blatant disregard for trans people.

Emma Watson seems a little more subtle and coy spewing antisemitic rhetoric.

Harry Potter sucks though and Emma Watson is a terrible actress.

she is supporting a terrorist state and going against the only state of the most persecuted people in history. Then she is being lauded as brave when it has always been cool to bash Jewish people. Its such a clown world.

Maybe she is, but I can not only separate the actor in a movie from their politics, but I simply don't care anymore at this point. This sort of thing's happened so much that I just don't care if someone holds horrible political views. I just wanna watch a movie, not deal with the question of if by doing so I'm promoting anti-sematism.

Supporting Palestinians makes you about as antisemitic as supporting Armenians makes you anti-Turkish as supporting Uighur muslims makes you anti-Chinese. What absolute bullshit.

That's usually how it goes. He shows up on a new alt, is relatively tame for a few days, then becomes increasingly unhinged and accusing anyone that doesn't compltely agree with Israel's actions of being anti-Semitic, eventually getting banhammered for being a little too crazy about it. Repeat every few months.

Israel is kinda fucked up. If you dislike Israel because of that it doesn't mean you hate/dislike jewish people.

The word "anti-semite" seems like a weird choice to call people speaking out against atrocities Isreal have committed and just doesn't make any sense at all.

Eeyup. I know people are kind of hesitant to criticize Israel because Jewish people have such a history of being persecuted, but there's a very clear distinction between saying "Israel should stop committing genocide" and actually hating Jewish people.

It is pretty sus to call Isreal's actions genocide but palestines several times more bombings not though.

Palestine has also attempted genocide, which is similarly bad. They're currently on the losing end, though, so Israel gets criticized for being genocidal maniacs. When Palestine had the upper hand, criticizing them for committing genocide was similarly appropriate.

I'm not particularly interested in picking sides. I just think genocide is bad. I'm radical like that.

his brief rebranding into pro-japanese imperialism wasn't working out so he pivoted back to pro-israel rhetoric

Yes, this is true. We're all kind of fixating on TC's comments on Emma Watson, but it bears specific acknowledgement that JK is indeed a trash-tier human being who's actively working to make life hell for certain profoundly marginalized people.

Not committing genocide against the Palestinians is something the nazis were famed for.

It's said that the Palestinian communities were littered with the perfectly healthy bodies of those not killed by Hitler.
