Absolutely 100% agreed. The organizers of the Palestinian protest should have kicked them out.
Not only is this despicable, it dilutes the very important effort of raising awareness of what Israel is doing in Gaza.

Paid actors?
Dunno. There's idiots everywhere.
My last shred of hope. Why do people have to be dicks, like, all the time
Never attribute to malice what can be attributed to stupidity
Anti-zionism is not antisemitism.
Yes it is, and its a smokescreen to say it is not.
Your downvotes doesn't make your racism not exist. Mobs always think they're right. Fuck all of you.
Do you care to back up your claim at all or are you just going to go with "these two distinct words with distinct definitions actually mean the same thing because I said so" the same way TERFs and transphobes talk about sex and gender?
Is it possible to support the black community in America without supporting black separatism?
Saying an imperialist Jewish ethno-state is bad is the same as saying Jews are bad!
Yeah, you're not real bright.
🤓
It can be but it isn't necessary. I am a Jew and not a Zionist. Obviously the example above is anti simetic, but there are peaceful (but depending on your views perhaps tenuous) arguments against the state of Israel
"kill the Jews" and "death to the Jews" are antisemitic not anti Zionists. JFC
Genocide is bad. Racism is bad. Mmmmkay.
That's all that should need to be said.
I don't care who's genociding, it's wrong
I don't care who's the racist, it's wrong
I don't care for their reasoning or defenses, they are wrong regardless.
Tolerate neither, ever
Uh, who's standing for either one of those besides fucking shitheads?
They’re the same picture
Op is totally not a propagandist. Just memes he likes
We don't stand for this, the bottom picture are 2 graffiti made by people who we don't know, or when they were made, and 2 protestors with anti-Israel posters, not anti-Semitic. The wide movement of protests are absolutely not anti-Semitic, and you trying to post shit like this conflating anti-zionism with anti-Semitism is disgusting
The star of David makes the posters ambiguous they could refer to either Israel or Jews. The grafitti in the images is explicitly antisemitic. Splitting hairs over this is pretty gross imo. I don't like crticiism of Israel being called antisemitic, but that doesn't make antisemitism suddenly ok
Dude, nobody is saying the graffiti is not anti-Semitic, it literally says "kill the jews", how on earth would that not be antisemitic. I'm saying they're putting the graffiti on top of protestors in an obvious attempt to conflate antizionist protests with antisemitism

Are you implying there are people who didn't stand for the first image and might stand for the second?
Yeah... I can denounce nazis while and at the same time denounce what Israel is doing in Gaza with a clear conscience.
I think you are mixing up the Star of David with the Israeli flag, which has the star on it.
Edit: I didn't notice the 2 smaller photos, that shit is unacceptable.

In my opinion leftists should create a Zionist symbol to separate Israel(the state) from Jewish people.
If they can convey the separation of the two for normies that would help their rhetoric game massively. (Israel ≠ Jewish people)
I stand by all effort to deny fascists the luxury of an effective narrative (Israel=Jewish people)
I mean the girl with the poster with the trash bin clearly put the Israeli flag in it, not just the star of David. If that's going to be called antisemetic then there's no symbol you can really use without getting called antisemetic for it.
yeah and the other protest one has the american flag in the middle so it to points to governments. I mean the graffitti at the top is not necessarily related to protests at all. You can always find shitty graffiti. Im sure I could walk around the city and within an hour find something with fag written somewhere.

I vote for Israeli Flag with a swastika in the middle. Or is that a little unsubtle?

You can not guarantee that there will be no idiots at a public protest. But if the organisers are aware of them being present and do nothing, they should be judged accordingly.
As I keep saying.
If you accuse those against Israel as being antisemitic, you're gonna make more of them actually antisemitic
Well yeah, antisemitism is antisemitism. Antisemites can and should fuck off, and we should aid them in that process.
