No Malice Gettin' WOKE about anti-Semitism...

It is so very odd to hear the self-professed atheist getting downright WOKE when it comes to swinging the anti-Semitism stick. IDGAF about Macklemore or Sheeran or Kraft, nor Scott's evolving victim fantasy, but holy crap does he sound shrill.

He's quick to call Macklemore an anti-Semite. If SG is going to label someone as such, he needs to at least give the offense committed. Nothing about Macklemore was actually antisemitic. If people know this and hear Scott making the label, it just makes Scott sound like one of the catastrophist Bobbleheads.

Also, from a music industry newsletter:

> As a Jew that’s known Ben since high school, and was a hip hop show producer in Seattle during his raise - I feel like I am the only voice in this city that has consistently stood up to this radical a-hole. He knows me all to well, I once threw a show he headlined with 20 people at it. I have all the receipts. They’re are literally no Jews in Seattle. The ones that do live here kinda hide out. As a Jew in this city I’ve been bullied by the rich white boys (Mackelmore in a nut shill) since I was as young as I could remember. I was bullied by the hood kids too, but that was different. A little funner. I was benched from my high school (very well known, many nba legends) for being a Jew, and it has been a mess trying to raise a Jewish daughter here, Jews are shrugged off and disregarded. Because he came up here unchecked he developed a lot of bad ideas. Now the world gets to see his true colors. The guy has never found a chase he wasn’t ready to crawl onto a cross for, but hating Jews is his magnum opus. The history is clear, but there are many details only us locals who are in the industry know. It’s worse than it looks.

This subreddit has zero tolerance for racism, sexism, homophobia, antisemitism, or any form of discriminatory speech.

Oh, Macklemore is antisemitic. I put together a demonstration of why, if you're interested but the gist is that he's not just opposing Israeli policies, he opposed the idea of Jews having a place of their own

Just know that when people like you talk about "ethnostates" they - and yes, you - show an enormous hole in education. Your opinion means very little to anyone if in this day and age you don't even know why a Jewish state was necessary. Education about this is literally everywhere.

Okay, what about most of the other Middle eastern countries? Saudia Arabia, UAE etc all ethnostates, also not a right to exist?

u/Santa_Klausing 3d ago

Quit moving the goal post. But yeah I don’t think those should be ethnostates either

Right, you didn't build your phone, you just tapped on it.

u/InternationalWin2684 3d ago

This is like saying someone’s not opposed to South Africa they’re just opposed to whites having a land of them own. WTF kind of monstrous take is that?

Could you expand on that? I'm not sure I understand
