THREAD: How a hashtag is a microcosm of Labour’s institutional racism...

Step 1.
Moderate Labour MP demands forgiveness by the Jewish community for antisemitism by a Labour Parliamentary candidate, because he visited Auschwitz
Step 2.
MP is rightly chastised by renowned antisemitism campaigner.
Step 3.
Labour MP responds by being abusive - telling said antisemitism campaigner to F off...>>
Step 4.
Holocaust revisionist and stalker of Jews, Sally Eason, joins in by starting a hashtag which replicates the abuse by the MP toward the antisemitism campaigner. He is a Jew by association...>>
Step 5.
Her network of antisemites pile on, in an attempt to get the hashtag trending....>>
Step 6.
Unofficial Labour media with a direct line to the leadership, Rachael Swindon, also helps with her influential account to get the bullying hashtag trending....>>
Step 7.
This front line antisemitism campaigner is then thrown under the bus by those who attack the community and people less willing to get their hands dirty. They are keen to be accepted into the community of the good and this is an easy ‘win’....>>
This is a microcosm of Labour antisemitism. Moderates who won’t do a thing except express occasional meaningless platitudes enable hardcore antisemites. Without their help, this abuse and racism would not be normalised in the Party...>>
Milani and Streeting don’t get to exonerate Milani’s antisemitism from the comfort of their antisemitic Labour cesspit.

It’s not like Milani has even shown any real remorse...>>
.@wesstreeting is in no position to dictate when Jews are ready to move from Milani’s racism.

Milani would do well to take a leaf out of Naz Shah’s book - listen, learn and EARN forgiveness through conduct...>>
But instead, on behalf of an antisemite, Streeting has orchestrated an attack on one of the most important antisemitism campaigners in the country.

Streeting deserves the hideous, unsalvageable Party he has found himself in.
*FOOTNOTE*
A bit more about Euan being treated as ‘a Jew by association’. Our non-Jewish supporters can & do suffer from antisemitic abuse too. Euan has never identified ‘As a Jew’ nor should he. He is not...>>
He is however attacked because of his support for the Jewish community in the fight against antisemitism. MacPherson’s definition of discrimination says if you are attacked due to a protected characteristic, whether you are or aren’t from that group, it’s still a hate crime...>>
Euan is persistently targeted for abuse for his support of the Jewish community. Sometimes antisemitic stereotypes are used, sometimes it’s just abuse. But it’s always directed at him for the sole reason he speaks out on behalf of Jews, and he is attacked as if he were a Jew
