THREAD ON MOMENTUM

1. Momentum are far left extremists whose objective is to get a man irredeemably immersed in the politics of antisemitism into power...(cont.)

2. Because anti-racists have made a stand against this and because the facts are so overwhelming, Momentum have had to make a play of being sensitive, listening and wanting to tackle antisemitism - a u-turn from their original tactic of claiming “smear”

3. They’ve tried “otherising” AS by focusing on David Icke - a diversion from the far left antisemitism that’s trying to get into government & which is the real concern & they’ve made a video with a Jew which perpetuated AS tests of good Jews vs bad Jews (must be against Israel)

4. Now Momentum seem to have given up their limp pretence of wanting to resolve the astonishing number of AS cases within Labour. Rather than dealing with that because it’s the right thing to do, they are going after those highlighting AS because it embarrasses their movement

5. Another bizarre move is they’re trying to police who can & cannot highlight racism. They’re RTing people who assert that they won’t listen to the reports of others unless they’re firmly in the camp of the left. This makes no sense, abandons victim & is not how anti-racists act

6. Pursuing justice can be embarrassing, painful, awkward & requires two steps back before one can go forward if it’s in your own house. It’d be sad if Momentum chose denial & what’s easy rather than what’s right. It won’t be shocking though. They’re backing a demonstrable racist
