It seems my post on Ryan Jefferson Booth, the Israel-hating actor who hardly anyone seems to have heard of (including his fellow propagandists who cannot get his name right) hit a nerve with him. He left a number of comments under the post, including this one declaring his love for Jews. “Zionists” on the other hand…
Give Zionists in this sense are really just Jews who believe in the Jewish people’s right to self-determination in our historical homeland again, I am not really feeling the love. And he has clearly never been to Israel if he thinks accusations of ethnic cleansing and Apartheid hold any water. The same can be said of his comparing us to “white supremists” (sic) when so many of us do not even look White – let alone none of us actually being White.
In any event, Booth’s so-called love of Jews-not-Zionists took another hit in the below Instagram story of his, in which he seethed over his failed attempt to report a post (which I cannot help but feel was mine!)
Insinuating that a group of people are controlling social media looks suspiciously like an antisemitic trope, notwithstanding the clumsy attempt to label them “Zionists.”
Assuming he did try to report a Facebook post linking my previous blog post on him, perhaps Meta did not determine it was not harassment or bullying because…it wasn’t. Writing about the sad case of his fellow Israel-haters not knowing his name may have upset his ego, but that does not make it against Meta’s community standards.
