They wrote: “No, she is going to call out the people who have destroyed her and her family. They were Jews and we shouldn’t be afraid to say it. They were Jewish supremacists.

“She is using the correct description. It’s us who have been scared into using the word Zionists because of the fear of being labelled anti-Semites. Enough of being scared of hurting their feelings while they murder, bomb and starve children.”

A CAA spokesman said: “No wonder this faction needs to call for moderation in public among its members, because their views are straight out of Nazi Germany. The real question is whether the Green Party is going to do anything about people who believe Jews are an abomination, and about the factions that include them and the motions that they propose.

I've been saying it for years now, left wing progressives are just chronically online Trump supporters on the left, they'll cling to any conspiracy and any justification, no matter how stupid they can

Yes I expected you to attack the source not the content. You know on right wing forums they do the same thing? BBC? can't trust that! You know the BBC is brainwashing lefty trash, totally not legitimate.

If you don’t know whether a news source is legitimate

Looks legit to me

The Campaign Against Antisemitism condemned the messages as “straight out of Nazi Germany” and confirmed its lawyers are examining the remarks. A spokesman said: “The real question is whether the Green Party is going to do anything about people who believe Jews are an abomination... Doing nothing will be the real abomination.”

Labour peer Lord Katz called the evidence “deeply troubling,” while Conservative chairman Kevin Hollinrake labelled the language “utterly appalling” and accused the Greens of tolerating antisemitism.

Nazi's? In my green party? It's more likely than you think

    If you quote a haterag, people are going to take issue with that.

    Don't take pro-Israel partisans at face value. You think a source is legitimate because it quotes someone who was given a peerage after helping to bring down the former leader of the governing party? Because it quotes a pro-Israel campaign group?

    I don't know if that screenshot is real. Assuming it is, a handful of members in one group in one local party are expressing views that can be interpreted as antisemitic. Ok. I hope that appropriate action is taken. It's hardly evidence of your horseshoe theory horseshit.

    The BBC is not any sort of left. It's centrist to centre-right.

    Its transphobic, pro-genocide, pro-monarchy takes should make that very clear.

    you are free to go onto twitter and yell it out with the best of em, good luck 🫡

    But my comment is more referring to the 'source is not reliable' attack, not the whether or not the BBC is anything
