I know some gentiles who ask "What can I do about antisemitism?" and the answer here is simple:

1. Stand up to it. Make comments on such most calling it out. Make the person who posted it have to deal with being called out.

2. Report the poster to your local admin. And follow up. If they don't take action, ask why not and see if you can get them to change their mind.

3. Repost these post. Get the word out.

4. Reach out to your Jewish friends. Reach out and ask "Are you okay?", check in to see how we are and offer your support.

When you do this, we feel seen and cared for. When you don't ever stand up for us, we notice. We might not tell you, but we do.

The second post is one that's even more direct, saying that Jews are not only directly responsible for their own attacks, but that Jews aka "Small Hats" are also to blame for bringing violence to the UK.

The first post is one saying that Jews must make a loyalty pledge against Israel. Only if they pledge to disavow their connection to the Jewish homeland should they be safe from antisemitism.

This is the standard Loyalty Pledge trope brought into a modern context.

They follow it up with an image of children evocative of the Blood Libel trope.

It was the holiest day of the Jewish calendar, Yom Kippur and there was a terrorist attack, a shooting targeting Jews in their place of worship. What did I miss on the Fediverse?

Two posts blaming Jews for the attack.
