Pro-Palestine demonstrators accused of antisemitism after protesting outside Fiddler on the Roof - eviltoast

The play is not about Israel but instead tells the story of a Jewish man preserving his family’s traditions in a village in imperial Russia at the turn of the 20th century. The performance on Monday went ahead as planned after the protest at the cafe.

“This is a performance of Fiddler on the Roof,” they wrote alongside footage of the protesters. “So, if you’re busy condemning racist demonstrations, but not this, & you don’t think they should be prosecuted, stop preening yourself. You’re happy with racism – it’s only the target that you worry about.”

    Britannica is both a dictionary and an encyclopedia bud.

    It’s Wilhelm’s book dude, your citing its author who coined the term in the later book after creating the society like three years earlier.

    Der Sieg des Judenthums über das Germanenthum – Vom nichtconfessionellen Standpunkt aus betrachtet.

      Der Sieg des Judenthums über das Germanenthum is only one of a half-dozen books and other publications Marr wrote. It does not discuss, nor even mention Arabs.

      Thanks anyway. Have a good one.

          You are mistaken, once again. I’m not sure why you continually double down on easily disproven facts, even after seeing evidence.

          There is a brief passage about the “Jewish Press” siding with Turkey in the Russo-Turkish War, but that is framed entirely as a criticism of the “Jewish press,” not a criticism of the Turks. It makes no mention of Arabs whatsoever.

          Marr references “Semites” or “Semitism” (etc.) 26 times in the work, and those are explicit, exclusive references to Jews or the Jewish people all 26 times. This is all plain for anyone to see. The entire work is publicly available. I’m sorry, but there doesn’t seem to be anything I can learn from you on this subject.

            What disproof? Nuh uh isn’t a refutation.

            Dude I’m not going to explain to you how to read nuance that Ctrl f doesn’t give.

            You already said good day, are you going to say that every time and keep contradicting yourself?
