Anti-Semitic ? Or a right wing agenda to discredit Corbyn ?

The mural, depicts banking magnates The Rothschilds, Morgans, Rockerfellers and Warburgs, playing a game of monopoly on the backs of 'the masses' with Masonic symbolism in the background.

Thoughts ?

Technically it's anti Semitic as it depicts stereotypes although let's be honest, I doubt anybody who isn't a gender neutral vegan ***** actually cares. Corbyn is just a stupid prat, and with too much rope he'll just keep hanging himself.

What are the anti-semitic stereotypes it depicts ?

Are you actually asking or are you doing a JC impression? It's fairly obvious mate.

I'm not detailing them cos I'll end up batting off half of the Corbyn crew from the politics board for the next 6 months.

It depicts a couple of Jewish bankers, but it also depicts some non-Jewish bankers too. Personally I think the charges of it being anti semitic are extremely selective. Some of those bankers in the mural happen to be Jewish, but it's not a sleight on their ethnicity, it's a comment on their autocracy.

If we are honest though no one reeeeeally likes Jews. They’ve gone from the exterminated to the exterminators. Hypocrisy at its finest..

I think those who are finding issue with it are looking at it differently to you.

It's ****e, that's all I think. His monopoly pieces are facing the wrong way for starters.

Honestly couldn't give a ****. There are a lot of far better newsworthy issues that get nowhere near the level of attention this mural has.
The standard of journalism and news related services is terrible nowdays; the advent of 24 hour news channels hasn't helped the issue either.

This is a mural that was commissioned for a wall in East London in 2012, called Freedom for humanity, by some ‘artist’ calling him/herself Mear One.

It’s blatantly anti Semitic, so much so that at the time the then mayor Rahman - a Muslim - ordered its removal.

The ‘artist’ complained and was backed up by Corbyn on Facebook, saying “You’re in good company, Rockefeller destroyed Diego Viera’s picture because it includes a picture of Lenin”

I’m sure many people will ask why Corbyn felt it necessary to offer support to such a blatant piece of anti Semitic trash!

The fact that they are digging up a comment from 6 years ago from Corbyn about 'freedom of speech' and labelling him as an Anti-Semite today because of it speaks volumes.

There’s a **** load of them in north London and most major cities. They’re mental mate. Whole areas dedicated to them with their weird wires connecting the houses so they can walk around at night.

You a bit Jewish??

My wife is a bit Jewish. One day I will gas her.

I'm not religious at all.

You don't seem very bright pal, there's no nice way to put it really is there?

I'm honestly struggling to find why it is anti-semitic ? Is it because the artist has depicted a couple of the bankers with big noses ? Other than that, it's a piece of socio/economic commentary as far as I'm concerned.
