But the author of this (and her boyfriend) have openly supported anti-Jewish rheotoric including death threats on numerous occasions. This includes a Jewish business owner who was told to "go back to Nazi Germany and let them Nazi's get at you again". She and her boyfriend made it clear they supported this. I send screenshots but the Stranger instead of publishing them they allowed their black racist reporter (Charles Mudede) to demonize the victim as racist for pointing out the excuse you used to incite violence was a lie. Fuck all these people. Let them call out leftist anti-Semitism as vigilantly as they do anti-black racism. They never ever would.

@1 No, I do not support "anti-Jewish rheotoric including death threats."

For curious parties, Sydney Brownstone summed up the incident referenced in the above comment in this post. It contains a quote from Charles Mudede not only denouncing the anti-Semitism in question, but addressing the failure of a crowd at an earlier anti-gentrification protest to denounce similar rhetoric:

Charles is right: trying to fight racism with racism is both harmful and counterproductive.

Please wait...
