    This has been debunked time and time again. If you don’t believe me, maybe you’ll believe the actual CAMPAIGN AGAINST ANTISEMITISM. She’s so against antisemitism that the fucking Campaign Against Antisemitism says “So it is with JK Rowling, who has proven herself over recent years to be a tireless defender of the Jewish community in its fight against antisemitism, for which we are immensely grateful”.

    Yeah, I don’t think an organization that carries water for the Zionist regime in Israel actually cares about the safety of Jews at all. Israel has been proven to stoke antisemitism abroad and make the situation for Jews outside of Israel worse in order to entice them to emmigrate to Israel. Any organization that doesn’t acknowledge and challenge the racist framing of Jews with the Israeli state is itself incredibly antisemitic, and demonstrates that they don’t really care about the welfare of Jews. I think it’s safe to say that a far right organization would be willing to hold water for other far right figures, and that real Jews like my partner are correct when they say that Joanne’s depicted stereotypes of goblins as essentially Jewish bankers is incredibly hurtful and encourages real life harm against Jews.

    One of the most horrifying details in the game too, of which the director for it for most of it’s development was a far right media personality, is that the “goblins” use an “annoying horn” for a status effect that’s directly modeled off of the Shofar. The Jewish Shofar is a very holy and important cultural artifact for Jews which is directly paralleled in the game as an “annoying horn”.

      🤦 you seriously want me to just go find plenty of other sources agreeing that you’re arguing about folklore at this point instead of racist stereotypes? If people like you weren’t bringing it up, literally no one would even notice. You sure aren’t getting up in arms about the exact same depiction of goblins in literally every other piece of fantasy out there.

      yeah, so you clearly haven’t played the game, and the fact that you think that there’s an “annoying horn” in the game that has a status effect (what in the fucking world are you even talking about?) says pretty clearly that your opinion does not matter at all here. You’re just spreading inaccuracies in the hopes of trashing something. Spreading lies doesn’t help your case, it just makes you look like an angry person out for revenge, no matter what the truth is. JK is a terrible person, you don’t need to make up shit in order to make that case, there’s plenty of actual things she’s said you can use.
