THREAD: The Corbyn supporting account @josefkalf fast emerged as an incessant antisemitic troll. In a few months it grew a following of Labour supporters >
The account came to peoples attention after making a list of Jews, in order to shame Labour MP @RosieDuffield1 for following them.

These Jews were labelled "terrible people", along with the racist stereotype of "dishonest mendacious creeps" >
Among the laughable excuses by @josefkalf was that he was creating a 'safe space' for Jews >
And even better, he couldn't be antisemitic because he liked some Jewish artists like Bob Dylan. >
He has solidarity with 'Jews' who signed a letter to the guardian 'as jews' - to support an antisemite

A letter so embarrassing, it had to be withdrawn as it included fraudulent signatories, non-jews, holocaust deniers and a neo-nazi. Those are the Jews @josefkalf likes >
This account openly uses racist stereotypes about Jews to deny Labour antisemitism. So there's talk of 'plotters' and 'jewish lobbyists' playing the 'antisemitism card'.

This is where the far left and right merge >
And the valliant fighter of these 'lies about antisemitism' he so admires? George Galloway! >
Jews are incessantly trolled, abused and goaded by this account.

The resignation is demanded of a respected antisemitism author and Jewish academic, simply for opposing antisemitism >
It'll come as no surprise that @josefkalf supports Harry Tuttle - an account who attacked and libelled Jews incessantly. So much so that he lost his job as a solicitor. >
Tuttle falsely accused @stephane_ulrich of being a Holocaust revisionist. @josefkalf excused this false accusation by saying that Stephane was not 'Nelson Mandela'. And that Holocaust denial was not revision. >
Let's take a closer look at who influences @josefkalf. To prove his point that antisemitism is a plot against Corbyn, he retweets 'mojos55' >
But 'Mojos55' is a Holocaust denier who also keeps posting from neo-nazi website 'the ugly truth' >
An inspiration for @josefkalf is Jonathan Cook. He is an author for antisemitic conspiracy website Global Research >
Of course, @josefkalf claims he's the opposite of an antisemite. That's when he's not bombarding antiracist accounts, claiming their motivations are Israel and 'pro-capitalism'. >
As I mentioned, this account has built a number of followers in a short space of time. These followers are Labour antisemites, Labour officials, and Corbyn supporters >
Most Jewish people will be well acquainted with many of these accounts, and not in a good way >
All these 'anti-racists' watching the disgusting antisemitic abuse and doing NOTHING. @LabourAgainstAS @GnasherJew - you may want to take a close look at these >
Amongst this sea of filth, only one Labour supporter called this out. Just one. The fact that accounts like @josefkalf aren't challenged but enjoy support, tells you everything you need to know about Labour's institutional antisemitism /end
