firing Black public figures over (imo, baseless) allegations of antisemitism based on sharing fucking Farrakhan content is outrageously anti-Black
Fire the fucking PRESIDENT
It’s absurd that we can watch white people commit mass antisemitic murders for years and the moment a Black person repeats something “problematic”—that could easily be debated or dismissed if white Jewish orgs treated Black ppl like equals—it’s a “scandal.” Ugh I hate it here.
Farrakhan and Black Muslims generally hold such a strange oversignified place in the white zionist imagination in large part imo due to how he symbolically combines of white panic around Blackness and zionist fear of “terrorism” and therefore infiltration
so there’s this toxic, baseless, bourgeois paranoia over what is felt to be a secretive, insidious “threat,” combined with violent white phobias/hatred of Black people, and so certain white Jewish orgs stress about Farrakhan of all people even tho he has no power in their lives.
I think they’re also freaking out bc these orgs (which are already incredibly racist) see all Muslims as a threat due to anti-Palestinian racism, and are esp on edge bc of vital recent moves of Black-Palestinian solidarity. this is one way that Zionism compels anti-Blackness.
