A small thread on antisemitism & the Left's attitude.

I have been a socialist longer than I care to recall.

So it grieves me when the British Left (or chunks of it) don't take racism seriously, promote known racists or dismiss concerns about racism.

It is increasingly common.
I tend to warn people if they interact with obvious racists.

Typically, adults & sensible people are shocked that they might have, mistakenly, helped a racist gain a wider audience.

But not all.

There is a section of the British Left that don't care if they aid racists.
One example:

"You are blocked from following @TomLondon6 and viewing @TomLondon6's"

Tom is v. popular on Twitter with nearly 40,000 followers.

His actions matter, when he says something people listen.

Tom is used as an example by others, quoted as a defence, as a reference.
