▲ 265 ▼ MTG Cites Antisemitic Fable Jews ‘Handed Over’ Jesus To Be Killed (talkingpointsmemo.com) submitted 2 years ago by FlyingSquid@lemmy.world to c/news@lemmy.world 161 comments fedilink hide all child comments I'm Jewish and have been told very angrily that I killed Jesus more than once. It's fun.
[–] Adderbox76@lemmy.ca 21 points 2 years ago (1 child) Because "Jewish leadership" isn't the same thing as "all Jews". It wasn't back then, and it isn't now. Implying that they are is exactly the reason why we are somehow not allowed to criticise the STATE of Israel without being labeled an anti-semite. The Jews didn't hand over Jesus. A HANDFUL of Jewish state leaders did. The Jews aren't committing active genocide in Gaza as we speak. A handful of Israeli state leaders are, and using their faith to justify it. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Veraxus@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago The Jews didn’t hand over Jesus.

Someone who had amassed enough of a following while calling out authority figures for hypocrisy, greed, and corruption is going to make some very particular enemies. permalink fedilink source parent
