I just quote tweeted a virulent antisemitic tweet which had the tone of the far-right but alleged goal of far-left. Wanted to see if anyone familiar with & understood mentality behind it coz even if you accept horseshoe theory, doesn't make sense to combine the two discourses.
I'm not surprised by the hate but it doesn't ring true. Knowing the ideology and psychology behind right-wing antisemitism and behind leftwing antisemitism & the different ways they use language & imagery, this doesn't strike me as real.

It strikes me as someone who doesn't understand those very well trying to create something that will cause anger. It was like when ppl put up posters saying "Don't walk your dogs here. Muslims don't like dogs." It is plausible fundy Muslims would say that but not in that language

They'd cite the qu'ran and speak of uncleanness. That was someone trying to rouse anger at Muslims.

Honestly professor Pluckrose idk. But: love is love, tolerance is tolerance, and hate is hate. A political caricature of Ben Shapiro seems quite the gentlest form of free speech to point out possible hypocrisy of his position.
