'Death to the IDF' is not antisemitic. Reserve your outrage for Israeli crimes in Gaza

'Death to the IDF' is not antisemitic. Where is the outrage over Israeli crimes in Gaza?

It's anti Israel, being a force of Israel. The big trick is Israel conflating all criticism with bigotry.
You know what's really damaging? Genocide. Crimea against humanity.
- That typo adds a certain je ne sais quoi to your comment, bravo.
Isn’t IDF itself antisemitism? I mean with shit like Hannibal Directive
- Pretty much. Zionism as a whole is literally antisemitic.
Israel is a menace to the world… Free Palestine
I'm glad I got to learn who Bob vylan is from all this. I'm now a fan
- This whole situation has been a textbook example of the Streisand Effect lmao
  Literally never heard of them before. Bought 3 digital albums and a vinyl copy of their latest one just this week.
  
  Didn't care much for the music although I like the message. I heard about Kneecap on BBC when Mo Chara was in jail, and I love this group. I'm not sure what they did after Bob Vylan played but there is an attempt to get their performance scrubbed from the internet.
Counterpoint: The very IDEA that harm could be done to ANY Klezmer Brahmin is a greater crime than the starvation of ALL children of the lesser castes, so... checkmate, antisemites!
