I couldn't bear seeing any more posts like that that’s why I moved away. It’s a shame as we did have some common ground on some issues but the whole antisemitism issue with him just feels so extreme. But that’s the end of it for me , best left alone and I’m sure he feels the same. |  | |  |

Forde Report: Anti-Semitism used as 'factional weapon' in Labour party on 09:39 - Jul 20 by solomon | Racism is racism, such a shame that antisemitism seems to be the racism of choice for some sections of society, they openly feel it’s a badge of honour, it seeps in and infects the minds of the vulnerable and impressionable. It’s our moral duty as a nation that we ensure everyone has a safe space no matter what , where or who they are. |
I can't see anyone here disagreeing with you on that. |  |

Indeed. It doesn’t lead anywhere but I think defending myself and others against the most disingenuous accusations and worst smears is still important. As GB and others’ narrative unravels he’s now doubling down on the worst misrepresentations in this thread. But that’s just who he is. |  |

Remember, this is Dk. 5th reply in. https://www.twtd.co.uk/forum/459669/page:1 Again, 5th reply in https://www.twtd.co.uk/forum/426157/3902650/oh-jeremy..... https://www.twtd.co.uk/forum/461329/page:1 He’s spent years defending, repeating and agreeing with antisemitic tropes. It’s pretty hard to sit back and then see him attempt to portray himself as a sane voice of balanced reason. [Post edited 20 Jul 2022 9:14]

I’m not rehashing this. You’ve repeatedly ignored what I’ve said about the objective truth of these and other issues to maintain the worst interpretation and accusation. And you’ll continue to do so. But there’s no point in engaging with someone on serious matters when they exhibit such monumental bad faith. |  |

I'm with you Solomon. I think it's high time I put DK on ignore. My only regret in doing this is that his apologism for racism when coming from those he deems to be on his side of the political argument will now go relatively unchallenged. One thing I have always been consistent on is to condemn without reservation, any racism that comes from people on my side of the political debate. DK Div listed. |  |

Good. “Apologism for racism” indeed. Utter smeary nonsense. |  |

Best all round GB, hopefully he will find some kind of peace, however there is a moral duty to ensure this type of nonsense isn’t spouted with impunity, this place is made up of some really really decent people and I’m 100% convinced tolerance and respect is a core value of TWTD and its users. |  | |  |

Sorry DK, can't really go with the "objective truth" thing.... |  |

I can’t help that. I’ve always tried to lay out the facts that for example the mural isn’t inherently targeting Jews but can be seen as problematic based on other antisemitic tropes. And similarly that despite Willsman talking about a very specific and documented issue with the JLM and links to the Israeli embassy it does echo completely groundless tropes of shadowy influence. But taking the worst possible bad faith reading of either does nothing for the discussion nor the fight against genuine antisemitism. And I don’t accept for one second that the overall discussion has been approached objectively. It’s still been a shockingly politicised and weaponised issue where the worst accusations just don’t stand up to an objective view. |  |
