“First a little, thence to more
They posted all their killing lore”
If you think the people who are alarmed at the world-girdling expressions of murderous antisemitism are exaggerating, just take a look at what is being posted about Jews and Israel all over the internet, and at what the hair-raising comments on those posts have been. More on the unalloyed enthusiasm for naked antisemitism can be found here: “When an Influencer Visited Israel, His Own Fans Declared Him a Jew,” by Matthias J. Becker, Algemeiner, July 22, 2026:
On July 10, Braden Peters — known to a Gen-Z audience of many millions as “Clavicular,” the most prominent face of the “looksmaxxing” subculture — announced his first livestream from Tel Aviv. The reply section got very active before the stream even began.
Dan Bilzerian, one of the manosphere’s most-followed figures, wrote: “Good way to destroy your reputation.” The comment drew roughly 26,000 likes, making it the single most-engaged reply of the entire week. It contains no slur and no conspiracy claim. What it asserts is simpler and, for this audience, sufficient: contact with Israel ends careers.
Shoud you as an “influencer” visit Israel, no matter how short the visit, and no matter how anti-Israel you have been in the past, your former followers, antisemites all, will denounce you — unless you denounce Israel with even more virulence during or after that visit.
Peters, 21, made international headlines in January as part of the Miami nightclub group singing along to Ye’s “Heil Hitler.” Six months later he spent a week in Israel — streaming from Tel Aviv, visiting the Western Wall, appearing beside an IDF soldier.
Did that visit change Peters’ mind about Israel, softening his hostility? Apparently his followers think so, some to applaud, but many more to deplore, this mental metamorphosis.
The visit split pro-Israel and Jewish discourse into two camps. One argued that his enormous reach extends into a young male milieu that no Jewish organization, no government spokesperson, and no legacy outlet can touch, and that exposure to ordinary Israeli life might soften attitudes there.
The other argued that hosting him legitimized a figure embedded in antisemitic and misogynist online environments, at unacceptable cost. Both camps were arguing from assumptions about how his audience would actually respond. Nobody had data. So my team collected it.
The Data
Over the week of the visit, the Decoding Hate project at NYU’s Center for the Study of Antisemitism gathered every recoverable reply under six of Peters’ own X posts — 1,379 coded units from nearly 1,200 authors, text and images alike.
Each unit was coded against the Decoding Antisemitism Lexicon (Palgrave Macmillan, 2024), a published catalog of 40 historically documented antisemitic predicate-clusters and the phrases that signal them in contemporary discourse, developed over five years of empirical research and applied to more than 300,000 online comments to date.
Across the corpus, 41.5 percent of units carried antisemitic content.
Under the influencer’s arrival announcement, the figure was 55 percent; under his July 11 post celebrating his status in Israel, 61 percent.
The percentage of hostile comments at Peters’ site containing antisemitic content went up pari passu with the length of time he posted from Israel.
Braden Peters visited Israel. He who had been full of anti-Israel animus became less so because of what he saw and did in the Jewish state. He posted about his visit as he was making it. And the consequence was that those who had been his followers on social media became his enemies, seeing him as a sellout to the Jews, and then, in fact, very likely a Jew himself. Only 1.5 percent of those commenting on Peters’ posts about Israel defended them against his vituperative critics; 41.5 percent denounced him by employing antisemitic tropes; the rest attacked him on other grounds. And the charge then was made, that by visiting Israel, and finding aspects of it to his liking, Peters had revealed himself to be a Jew. It’s not just Jews who must be attacked, but all those who cease to exhibit antisemitism, all those who are in any way, no matter how small, favorable to the Jews, who must be attacked and, in many cases, accused of being Jews. That’s why, for example, people such as Robert Spencer who dare to defend Israel are declared, incorrectly, to be Jews.

I am not a Jew. But one of my favorite verses from the Hebrew Bible, is Zech. 8:23
:” This is what the Lord Almighty says: “In those days ten people from all languages and nations will take firm hold of one Jew by the hem of his robe and say, ‘Let us go with you, because we have heard that God is with you.’”
One Jew Whose robe I hold tightly, has “words of everlasting life.” (John 6:68)

But you’re a Bible scholar, both Old and New Testament. If only the general populous would just read the Bible from cover to cover and follow the teachings on how do deal with your fellow, we would not have half the problems that plague the country

Thank you, Taffy.
And I agree.

I too hold tightly to His robe!

That clowns like Braden Eric Peters get taken seriously at all is frightening enough, even without the inevitable addition of Jew-hatred. This is a culture in trouble, if ever there was one.
Robert says
The nations and lives of haters of Israel and Jews in general might be better off if they emulated Israel and the Jews.
John Hawkins says
Robert, I totally agree. I read once that a Jewish business man donated his entire fortune to help in the war for independence. The Jews have been here since then and have been nothing but model citizens. The muslims have only been here for roughly ten years and have caused nothing but ca0us. They don’t move here to become part of the country but to take it over.

“.The pride and determination of these Founding Fathers were bolstered by a Jewish man who was also in search of liberty. Haym Salomon, a Sephardic Jew whose ancestors had fled the Portuguese Inquisition 300 years earlier, left his birthplace in Poland amid political upheaval and rising insecurity for Jews. Upon his arrival in New York City in 1775, he witnessed British oppression and quickly identified himself with the cause of the patriots, joining the Sons of Liberty.
Arrested by the British in New York for his loyalty to the patriot cause, Salomon escaped to Philadelphia in 1778. There, he flourished as a banker and financial broker. Fluent in multiple languages, his business acumen and personal integrity earned him the trust and respect of European financial houses.
[…]
Salomon sacrificed nearly his entire fortune to American independence. When he died suddenly in Philadelphia on Jan. 6, 1785, at just 44 years old, he left his wife and young children penniless, as the government had not repaid most of the money that Salomon had advanced.
His contribution went mostly unacknowledged for many years. But in 1975, the U.S. Postal Service issued a stamp in his honor, describing him with these words: “Financial hero — Businessman and broker: Haym Salomon was responsible for raising most of the money needed to finance the American Revolution and later to save the new nation from collapse.”

“Luck’s a chance, but trouble’s sure.”
Jordan’s King Abdullah I met secretly with Golda Meir, on several occasions in 1947–1948, before and shortly after the establishment of the State of Israel. At some point, word got out that he spoke with Golda Meir. In 1951, Abdullah I was assassinated upon entering the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem’s Old City. Evidence presented at the time pointed toward individuals associated with the circle of al-Husseini, the former Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, who bitterly opposed Abdullah because he dared speak with Golda Meir. These contacts led the former Grand Mufti and many Palestinian nationalists and other Arab leaders to view him as a traitor to the Arab cause.

At least the lad went to the trouble of trying to embrace the humanity of Jews – unlike horrendous anti-Semites like Dan Bilzerian. I hope Clavicular starts a never-ending stream of ‘influencers’ and celebs going to Israel and enjoying their time there. The turn of the tide is inevitable.

Unhinged Antisemitism Running Wild on the Internet
…………………………………………
Yes–this is getting worse all that time–so much that I am shocked to see it, and I am generally not easily shockable. Just yesterday on Quora I had someone call me a “demon”–and say all Jews are demons–when I said that Jews should not have to be victims of Jihad terror attacks like 7/10 where they were kidnapped, raped, and murdered. He also claimed that I must be Jewish myself to think like this (I’m not–just a decent human being).

One of my close relatives did one of those tests to see ethnicity due to a university question on an entrance application. The relative found out, to surprise, that there was a small % of Jewish ancestry.
I’m guessing that a lot of people would find this to be true of themselves, which means they are fighting/hating against their own ancestors.
We all descended from Noah’s three sons. Hatred based on race or ethnicity is evil.

I wonder why these oxygen thieves ever think with that pea for a brain why they hate Jews and Israel? I would ask them, what did a jew do to you that you would butcher them, bet he hasn’t got an answer, most retards don’t

Lazy childlike adults are easily influenced by the ignorant and agenda media. Where are the level-headed adults and parents with real experience? Do we need another World War to generate them?

That is because these useful idiots don’t read books, they can only stare at goldy, shiney, bobbling obects for way less than 8 seconds, which goldfish can.
In summary, while Muslim Nobel laureates represent approximately 1% to 3% of the science prizes, Jewish laureates represent approximately 41% of all Nobel Prizes awarded in the scientific fields. Figure that, one quarter of the entire worlds population, who claims to be greater, has contributed to a whopping 1-3% verses 0.19% of Jewish world population contributing over 41% of all scientific Nobel prizes.
Mohammad hated the Jews till his dyng breath, as they would never relinguish to his savage idiology. And they (the muslims) have nearly convinced the world that the Jews are what they themselves are: savage, greedy, blood thirsty and sexually depraved.

Religion by itself isn’t necessarily bad; it is when you add humankind to it problems occur.
It takes a lot more courage to walk an unpopular line than going along with the masses. Reading the bible isn’t even a full solution do to a massive number of contradictions and impossible happenings
Humankind has a long way to go before it can call itself civilized. :/
