Piece of shit also appropriated a very famous Jewish artist’s stage name whilst calling for death to Jews. This is like a white “Smartin Luther King” campaigning to re-introduce segregation and bring back lynchings.

They always appropriate us as they call for our death. It isn't a stretch to see why the Jew-demoniser changed the name of Dylan to "vylan" (villain). Or stole it to begin with.
Why are they so obsessed with us?

u/daniedviv23 Reform/Conservative Jun 28 '25
What artist?

u/HighWaterSheriff Not Jewish Jun 28 '25
Bob Dylan. The rapper chose Bob Vylan as his stage name despite acknowledging “no influence” from Bob Dylan’s music. He’s just being a vile human being.

People will assume this started on Oct 7th. Nope, Corbyn was around before (yes, never elected to PM, but neither are these people), and it didn't start with him either. The left in the UK have massive antisemitism problem.
I'm not sure it's "taken over" though. These people are loud but incapable of winning elections, now it seems like Reform are going to eat them.

u/danhakimi Jun 28 '25
it's funny, because the UK might have some of the oldeest undisturbed Jewish communities in the world. Most of Europe, all of the Middle East... The next oldest Jewish communities would be the ones who came to the US in, what, the late 1800s? And, of course, Israeli communities that went there at around that time. So yeah, if you want a Jewish community that's been in place for over ~140 years, the UK is the best place to look... and we'll see how much longer that lasts.

The problem is growing. I’m not denying that. But it’s not like the US is flooded with antisemitism either.
A lot of the US is still safe for Jews which is different than a lot of places like the UK or Canada where it’s not. The Midwest and southern parts of the US are still ok but it’s unfortunately something we have to be on the lookout now more than ever

u/BudandCoyote Jun 28 '25
As someone who lives in the UK, I feel 'it's not' is a serious overstatement. I haven't seen worse here than the US, in terms of incidents, and while we have crap like what OP has highlighted, no one has shot anyone or set anyone on fire for being Jewish here. The US cannot say the same.
This is a worldwide problem. It's a problem because we're a minority in literally every country we live in except one, and minorities are targets. Always have been. The Holocaust shocked the world enough we got something of a break for a while (though it never fully went away). But now we're too far from it, so the old hatred is just back in fashion again.

The Democratic party, one of only 2 major parties in the USA, just permitted a rabid, violent, loud and proud antisemite to be its nominee for the NYC mayoral election, after a majority of voters elected him to be the nominee.
The sky is certainly doing something.

u/MrFlitcraft Jun 29 '25
What exactly makes Mamdani a “rabid, violent, loud and proud antisemite?” The main evidence i’ve seen is that he did not condemn a phrase that he himself doesn’t use but is used by a cause that he supports. He won because he ran a campaign that relentlessly talked about issues that matter to New Yorkers and his main opponent was a corrupt creep.

u/hereforlulziguess Actually loves matzah Jun 28 '25
Do you know how democracy works? People get to vote, the Democratic Party didn't "permit" anything. And while I don't like Mamdani's stances on Israel, where has he been violent? "Loud and proud" means he'd be SAYING he's an antisemite - he does not believe he is. I think he's ignorant on these issues, and I think that's bad, but you're being absolutely hysterical here.
Amazing you're trying to inflame people over this while the current administration has hired an actual Nazi to be the Department of Defense spokesperson.

u/Ok_Ambassador9091 Jun 29 '25 edited Jun 29 '25
But they did permit it. They could have distanced themselves from him, but they did not. They could have spoken up against his, and other antisemitic democrats' rantings, but have not.
I dunno if you are Jewish or not, and frankly don't care. Antizionist Jews, antizionist-y Jews, and antisemite gentiles love to say there is no antisemitism, when its blatant, violent, and growing. It's one of their oldest tricks, telling the Jew who speaks out against antisemitic racism that he/she/they are being "hysterical". Or, trying to "inflame" people. We've had an influx of this language here since shortly before the election. It's as if there's a script.
The Qatari royal family praised his win. It has been hailed by jihadis as globalising the intifada. He has made no secrets of his beliefs. Aside from his racism towards Jews, he is also supporting anti-Hindu actions and sentiments. Advocates from that community are also speaking up against his candidacy. And are also being denigrated for doing so by his supporters. Using the same language you've used, here.
If you're in denial, I get it. It's scary. If you're just one of his supporters trying to silence us, there's not much left to discuss on the subject. We know who he is.

u/SoleSanctum Just Jewish Jun 29 '25
Yeah don’t let this person gaslight you. Mamdani is antisemitic in every single sense of the word and any sane Jew is or should be gravely concerned. All sane people should be concerned to have this much of a bigot likely in control of New York City. Very troubling times.

I mean, this is the case in the UK too. Too many people spend way too long dooming on Reddit, a liberal and virulently antisemitic echo chamber, and not enough time out and about.
Life's just grand here. Manchester is the fastest growing Jewish community in Europe and among the safest in the world. Antisemites come in various shades (though predominantly extreme left and/or Islamic) but that's true of anywhere, Israel included.

Trust me, a lot of Brits are absolutely appalled by what’s going on over here.
The absolute mess at Glasto is big news here today which is only furthering tensions in a country that is already an absolute tinderbox!
The guy even sang “I heard you want your country back, shut the fuck up” which has added fuel to the fire considering the conversations happening surrounding immigration and asylum at the moment - basically he’s managed to kick a hornets nest and no doubt boosted support for Reform in the process.
Doesn’t help that the festival platformed Kneecap who have been charged with terrorist offences and also “Palestine Action” who are facing being proscribed as a terrorist organisation following their recent attack on military and bludgeoning an officer with a sledgehammer last year….
I could rant about Glasto all day as I used to live near there, so don’t particularly have a positive view of the event to begin with.
Unfortunately we have a huge issue with the far left and plastic socialists in general which is really frustrating for those of us on the left who think these people are absolute melts, dont want to be associated with them and feel they only damage the reputation of actual leftists.
It’s not a great time to be a Jew here, that’s for sure and sadly I can’t see things improving anytime soon.

I try to stay off social media and stay off the topic but honestly it's actually worse IRL. You literally can't escape it - I was at a bbq and people started talking about how they support Hamas...my neighbor has two giant Palestine flags flying out of their window...they installed Palestine flags for miles along the main road and even though it's illegal apparently the borough 'interviewed residents and found that the majority wanted them to stay up'...my local supermarket has 'From the River to the Sea' and 'F** IDF' graffitied over the entrance...every Saturday there is an antisemitic hate march through the center of town and a group outside the shopping center calling on people to boycott Israeli products...my local bookstore has a whole shelf of books promoting Palestinian terrorism, one of which described Hamas as a legitimate government and Oct 7 as a 'consequence.' Posters calling to 'isolate the Zionist state,' stickers saying 'celebrate the resistance,' my street sign covered in a map of Israel labeled 'Palestine.'
So as much as I would love to agree that it's just social media hype, in my experience, it's really not.
*Eta my little cousins' elementary school started using a private bus service to and from school after attacks on the kids, and even then kids were attacked and screamed at after people climbed on board. All the Jewish schools in the city have been attacked, red paint thrown on them, bomb threats, people attacking verbally and physically, spitting on children, public buses refusing to stop and the people on board cheering. None of this is ever reported on in mainstream news, or if it is, it's a tiny article and all the comments are saying it wasn't a hate crime or they deserved it.

The media is so one sided and hyper focused on only Gaza. There’s so much more going on in the world that needs addressing. Like where are the hourly updates on Ukraine. I was watching the BBC give the Iranian regime a voice, it was sickening. They are obviously being paid, and they repeat things that are unverified. CNN last night was showing a malnourished looking baby, but I question why do the adults with the baby look well fed. It feels like child exploitation. There are serious famines that need attention, these people get more aid and donations than any population I’ve ever seen. If it’s getting stolen they need to blame Hamas, who is stealing it. They are perpetuating the situation for money, it’s sickening. They don’t talk about the Iranians now being imprisoned and executed after the strikes. Israelis had to take shelter because there was a missile from Yemen, and then another one I forgot from where already because no media covers it. Jews need to sue, they are blatantly misleading and/or lying and it’s getting us killed.

I’m pretty sure they are staying quiet because there is absolutely nothing gained for them in speaking out, and they’d likely face enormous backlash. I think it’s unfair to suspect all famous Jews who have been silent on social media. Not everyone is built to be an activist.
The ones who have gone over to the Hamasnik crowd are very loud about it (Ilana glazer, Hannah einbinder, etc). I think we can presume innocence with the Haim sisters though

Nothing gained? They stand up for their people and show the world this hatred shouldn’t be tolerated. I just wish more people would do it. By staying quiet, you’re essentially helping it spread.

Yes, I wish it was like that too. But you see what happens to people who speak out.

I don’t think silence is ideal—but I also think it’s understandable and we shouldn’t assume the worst from people who haven’t made public statements

Bob Vylan did it. A silence came over hundreds of Glastonbury attendees to focus on what they must do. Despite spending hundreds of pounds for a ticket to the festival, concert goers petitioned the Glastonbury festival organizer to cease all further performances. Bacchanalian celebrations fueled by acid, Heineken and red bull-vodkas gave way to organized workshops driven by the desire for lasting peace between Israelis and Palestinians.
Bob Vylan themselves led many such workshops and spearheaded a 20 point plan encompassing land swaps, economic subsidies and security for both sides.
The Glastonbury attendees plus Bob Vylan presented the plan to Keir Starmer who rushed it to the UN. Benjamin Netanyahu was visibly shaken, crying tears of joy at witnessing “The Glastonbury Plan”. It was a grassroots plan that threaded the needle for peace is ways that politicians, think tanks and ngo leaders never considered. Upon seeing the plan Ali Khameni and Mahmoud Abbas both gave up politics, King Hussein reformed Jordan into a democracy and Egypt dedicated billions of dollars to reforming the nose on the sphinx.
The Middle East bloomed like never before as Israel and Palestine finally had peace. Gaza reinvented itself as the Ramallah Riviera, Israeli taxi drivers stopped ripping off American tourists, and Schnitzel Maklouba becomes the most popular dish in the Middle East.

u/theuniversechild Reform Jun 29 '25
I honestly can’t begin to imagine how difficult it is for you down there with things being the way they are! I’m so sorry you’re also having to deal with all this. It sucks.
I used to go London all the time as it was always the easiest meeting spot with my friend - we both avoid it now and instead do the extra travel to each others towns as it just felt unsafe and that we were walking on eggshells!
Like I’m fortunate in the case that I can hide anything that can be clocked as Jewish as I look insanely Celtic; my friend on the other hand is Israeli and although he could pass as Jordanian, his accent gives his actual nationality away and all it would take is for someone with an axe to grind to register that - just not worth the stress and worry.
It’s absolutely abhorrent how people are acting, your Judaism teacher is a prime example of how bad things are getting - someone who’s being dehumanised and stripped of who they actually are in favour of baseless rhetoric seeped in hatred. It’s unjustifiable.
It’s not even restricted to just London either although I absolutely agree it’s on another level down there - we are seeing that same normalisation and hatred spreading. Theres a small shul local to me that got graffitied with some really disturbing things and because the local press didn’t report it, people act like it didn’t even happen! It’s just really sad, most of the members there are elderly too and I know it’s made them feel really shaken up and nervous about attending now. I’ve also had a few incidents of people saying the most unhinged shit to me not realising I’m a Jew; these were absolutely normal people you wouldn’t expect it from either!!! So I’m unsure if it’s something that’s always been there and people are feeling emboldened in showing it or if people are just being radicalised and losing sight of things. Either way, it’s terrifying.
I will say though that it’s getting more and more difficult not to smash my face against a wall when people try and downplay and dismiss the antisemitism with “ohhh it’s probably just AnTi-ZiOnIsM and someone being critical of Israel!” 🙄 ANY other group going through this stuff they will listen to, when it comes to us then they think they know better and can dictate to us what’s harmful! It’s nuts!
Sorry for the essay - If you ever fancy venting and a bit of camaradery, feel free to shoot me a message though! This whole mess can feel really lonely at times can’t it?

It is always really heartbreaking to hear about synagogues being attacked too, it’s so unfair and awful :(
My situation is particularly stupid because I moved to London only to pursue conversion 😅 the irony moving to a very anti semitic city because I want to be Jewish is not lost on me! Hahah
I do think like you said people are getting more bold about it since now they can more easily hide under the banner of “anti Zionism” :( they use that as an excuse to show their true feelings and it’s sickening. Many “useful idiots” too, people who hear things on Tik tok and think they know the truth ugh.
Anyways, I will message you! It is nice to meet British Jews :) and it is truly so isolating, I’ve lost so many friends, so it is nice to meet new people who understand the mess this place is atm 😅

I think that school curriculums in both the HS and college levels need to be examined. NYS is setting up a commission to combat Antisemitism. Telling people to be nice to Jews isn't going to be effective..
Teaching actual history instead of Antisemitic conspiracy theories, which is essentially what kids are learning, might change attitudes.
One of my children came home from school and told me that her teacher told their class that Israel started the war in 1948, when it conquered Palestine. She corrected the teacher who eventually apologized and said she was just following the curriculum.

In the UK, police arrest 30 people per day for speech that causes "offense", "annoyance", or "inconvenience" to others. People have been arrested for criticizing school board decisions, posting photos of offensive Halloween costumes, or silently praying on public sidewalks.

Said it before but again: On top of my problems with them as a Jew, I must just voice my disgust as someone Irish American as well as Jewish and who grew up with deep connections to my Irish side and my Irish-speaking family.
Folks like Kneecap had such promise in helping modernize and revive the Irish language (Gaeilge), but they’ve now only fed into the stereotypes used against their dialect (literally referred to as Jailtacht) by being pro-terrorism. We were moving past the days where Gaelgeorí (Irish speakers) were profiled as terrorists and terror-supporters merely for using their language. Now they’ve fucked over the whole community, all while while inciting violence against others.

I just saw a clip Of this bands set- it’s one drummer who also is the DJ (so all the other instruments are just samples essentially) And the vocalist who literally sounds and is just a poor man’s Tom morello. (And black, which is I pierant only bc how rediculous this whole thing really is.., Before this weekend, I had no idea that this shit duo existed, and now that I do my brain is really trying to process how this is what is popular, this is what is getting booked and not just the UK’s biggest festival, but was also booked all over the US! And tickets are obviously sold, they must have a fan base? -Not based on originality (again, this is a very very poor version of bands we have heard before, and they sound very much like these bands.. bc no one can convince me that they did just type in “rage against the machine type but kind of punk sound” on AI/GPT and this is what was created.
I mean, he sounds to me like a bad cover band of rage against the machine, except with a drum machine and vocalist.
So, in this clip the lyrics are “ so I heard you want your country back” and they repeat this over and over (then pan to audience who are all British white people) singing along.,,
I’m not lying.
(So imagine, a black man, talking about colonizing to 300,000 white British people holding Palestine flags???? My eyes rolled into the back on my head and right back into place. It’s beyond cringe…) —-Let’s get back to the lyrics
Ok- so what country? Right?
-the white people wanting the Uk back from the “brown” people? -Africa ? -America ? As every American would then owe to the indigenous people (flash back to rage against the machine politics)
- Dutch Indonesian islands
Sorry for the rant, I’m just really surprised how bad this band really is and that this is popular

Luckily I've never heard of this guy.

Somewhere in that crowd, a young progressive jew, call him herzel, hears the chant and suddenly sees that neither blending in nor having a Jewish state has put an end to antisemitism.
At least now we know!
