As I write this on Monday night, I have seen only one anti-Zionist Leftist explicitly call out Roger Waters’ blatant antisemitism and lies, Mairav Zonszein.
Leftist Jewish groups mostly retweeted a very generic tweet that sort of implied distaste at his words without mentioning Waters’ name, so their readers could easily have thought that they were talking about the far Right.
This way they could claim to be against antisemitism without actually criticizing Waters.
The crazed responses to Zonszein from her fellow anti-Zionists, however, are something to behold.
This one has some practical advice: Waters might be an antisemitic jerk, but criticizing him is worse:
There are the predictable denialists, hand wavers and subject changers:
Some are flabbergasted that an anti-Zionist can have an original thought that is not in lock-goose-step with the masses:
My favorite:
“They.”
And, inevitably, those who get so angry at basic facts that they attack the person who was their heroine five minutes beforehand:
I disagree with practically everything Zonszein writes, but she is the only anti-Israel Leftist I see who actually called out this perfect example of Left antisemitism. All the others are cowards or sycophants.
