News Jake Tapper tweets that people protesting his colleague Dana Bash are antisemitic. Max Blumenthal absolutely eviscerates him in response

This particular exchange to one side, it depresses me that Max Blumenthal/GZ gets airtime in this sub. We've got to be more discerning than that, folks. We're not going to find liberation by allying with a guy who denies China's oppression of the Uyghurs, denies chemical attacks by Assad, and spreads misinformation in Russia's favor with regard to Ukraine (in addition to regularly appearing on RT).

Blumenthal is not our friend.

(Side note: honestly had no idea Dana Bash is Jewish.)

I must admit I did not know those things. Hmm, must be more cautious. Thanks for raising.

Hey no worries at all. It's impossible to track all of the goons on social media/the internet.

Max is not a goon, he's a great journalist and cares about the Palestinians.

He's lived in Gaza, has friends there, made a documentary and book about Israel's persecution of Gaza, etc.
