Thank you for being patient with me. Once again I do appreciate your perspective on this. Have a good weekend :)

I am really worried that there will be some very nasty unintended consequences because of this for Jewish people. Do you have any suggestions for what we can do to help Jewish people out if something like that happens?

I am kind of worried what this weaponisation of antisemitism accusations to completely shut down any criticism of Capitalism or the actions of the Israeli Government is going to end up hurting the Jewish community in the long run.

I definitely would not write Owen Jones off completely. Kerry-ann Mendoza should have probably refrained from using that kind of language though as it is very easy to misinterpret what she meant.

Thank you for your perspective. I see a lot of parallels with the language and political climate we currently have with that of pre nazi Germany. The (former) Conservative party work and pension secretary Ian Duncan Smith even used the term work will set them free when he was criticised for his policies which were seen to greatly hurt the poor and disabled. Non white people are being used as scape goats for the mishandling of the covid 19 crisis and are being set up to be blamed for the government opening up the economy too soon. Also just to point this out some of the governments key advisers are proud and open eugenicists.

I don’t know why but your last paragraph seems to be accusing me of being pro Holocaust. I want to clarify that I am definitely against mass murder of any group of people including Jewish people. (I know such a brave statement) I also prefer it if we did not repeat history.

A little bit of self awareness goes a long way. Unfortunately we collectively couldn’t organise a piss up in a brewery which makes the attempts at trying to shut us down seem like a silly waste of time.

I have never owned a car I get around by bicycle or public transport but I still love those shows where they restore an old car to make it run very well.

I don’t think the media looks at the material conditions that lead people to become this way and just seem to go oh look at the freaks they have no friends etc.
