    I was confused by the title at first but in the tierlist, “loves Sabra” is at the bottom. In Marvel comics, Sabra is a Jewish superhero who works for the IDF.

      Sabra is the garbage hummus at the grocery store. If they meant Jewish, they wouldn’t have put an arab and an open antisemite in that category.

        Sneako doesn’t count, everyone hates that clown. I’m sure in their eyes his alt-right politics trump any kind of kinship they might feel towards his anti-Semitism. It’s a simple flowchart: are they even slightly pro-Israel? F tier. Are they right-wing? F tier.

        The word “Sabra” means a Jewish person born in Israel. It’s what these fake progressive losers like to call a “dog whistle”.

          Well yes, obviously in a tier chart about understanding arab culture, people who support their genocide are going to be F tier.

          If black people did a tier list ranging from “invited to the cookout” to “puts raisins in mac and cheese”, would you expect open racists to be in anything but F tier?

          It’s what these fake progressive losers like to call a “dog whistle”.

          What’s more likely, that a bunch of people who ban antisemites from their communities and one of whom is jewish, are all secret antisemites trying to signal their antisemitism to other antisemites, or they were referring to the garbage hummus nobody who understands arab culture be caught dead eating?

            Idk about these other nobodies, but the anti-Semitism in Hasan’s chat is well documented and tolerated by him. Here’s a fun video to that point https://youtu.be/zKTjWn500go?si=VSFhOBdLq_kaB7SP

            Another thing these fake progressives love to say is that’s it’s not about your intention it’s about how you are perceived. So even if I didn’t think it was there explicit intention to use a kosher brand of hummus with fucking SABRA in the brand name as a synonym for bad, they will be judged as if they had by their own standards.

              Yeah no, that entire video is equating zionists with Jews, which is antisemetic as fuck.

              Being Jewish doesn’t require the ethnic cleansing of Palestine, being Zionist does.

              Acting as if Israel eviscerates children in their homes due to Judaism and not Israel being a settler-colonial project is just blood libel.

              kosher brand of hummus

              All hummus is kosher.

              it’s not about your intention it’s about how you are perceived.

              Everyone knows Sabra as “the shitty grocery store hummus”, virtually nobody knew the Hebrew translation of Sabra.

                I had never heard of Sabra hummus in my life before this, so no, not everyone knows. They could have used anything else but they landed on something literally called “Jew in Israel” hummus and you thinks that’s nothing. They’ve been boycotting the brand because it’s Israeli for ages, they know exactly what they are doing.

                  You also didn’t know hummus is kosher, maybe step back and leave this conversation to people with enough proximity to Arab culture to know what hummus is or enough proximity to jewish culture to know how kosher works.

                    Again, ignoring the obvious point that his is anti-Semitic as fuck.

                    Let’s put it this way, if the tier list was “whites” at the top, and “watermelon and fried chicken” at the bottom, you’d have a problem. That’s what this is, 1:1.
