Reading #LeftOut #Corbyn terribly upset anyone could think him racist. He doesn’t see Jews as marginalised but wd have sympathised with us in the 1930s. Jews in Germany weren’t marginalised till Hitler. They were integrated and many were successful. Germany was a cultured country
The Jews aren’t suffering from real racism demonstrates how #corbyn really doesn’t understand #antisemitism. Being prosperous and successful was no insulation against genocide in Germany. In fact it added to the hatred even tho there were many poor Jews.
Categorising Jews as prosperous so no not needing anti racist policies is itself racist as it assumes we’re all the same. It’s an antisemitic trope and a very dangerous one. As we saw in Nazi Germany. So yes, #corbyn is a racist. He is blind to the risks Jews always face.
He has no concept of why many of us keep a packed suitcase ready in case we have to flee. Again. Being well. integrated and assimilated into a country does not confer immunity from persecution. Many Jews were terrified of #corbyn becoming PM. #LeftOut clearly shows why. Read it.
