We seem to have an antisemite problem here.

And I'm not talking about criticisms of Israel. Straight up white supremacist and conspiracy BS going on.

I'm sad to hear that the admins haven't blocked this,

I think sadly, a lot of the online radical right have succeeded in normalising a certain level of hate speech.

A lot of centrists and also libertarians buy into the 'both sides must be equally bad' narrative and also the narrative about the 'woke mob' silencing people. These arguments have been driven so relentlessly by the media that they had an impact So when there is any plausible deniability at all, people decide it's not racist. These days, the idea of falsely accusing someone of racism seems to carry more stigma than actual racism.

The language of 'globalists,' 'Cultural Marxism,' and 'New World Order are antisemitic, in origin at the very least. These are used frequently in online discussions in many places and it has become normalised. I also think that there is a general lack of understanding of anti-Semitic tropes.

I'm obviously talking about the outer layer of this stuff. Sometimes it really does cross over to some really vulgar stuff.
