Please use Bitcoin or Solana instead." https://xcancel.com/ExplosiveMediaa/status/2041944286330040695 https://xcancel.com/ExplosiveMediaa/status/20419442863300406...

- deaux 6mo agoAll of the lyrics that reference it are talking about the country, the government and its president. If them being pictured as making a financial trade with the US president is an "anti-semitic trope", it becomes impossible to satirize these real-world events. Is there a different real trope that I missed?
- crooked-v 6mo ago"The Jews are secretly running things to the detriment of the common person" has been a right-wing conspiracy theory for a long time, going well before even the invention of modern politics. With that said, I think the video, looked at as a propaganda piece, threads the needle about as well as possible - it sticks strictly to referring to Israel as a country, but also just as importantly frames Trump as the primary actor rather than taking direction from Israel.

- deaux 6mo agoEquating the government and its president to Jews in general is a massive disservice, and truly antisemitic, towards the hundreds of thousands of Jews[0] who directly oppose them. The video showed the former. I realize that the second part of your comment means you're not doing so, but the person saying that the video at that timestamp showed an anti-semitic trope, was doing so.
