He says there's no antisemitism in his close circles, as if that matters, but it's also a lie because he himself backed a "Jews are trying to replace whites" post on Twitter.
Also, he said he was Jewish by association because he has a lot of Jewish friends. Different brand of ridiculousness from what the headline implies.
"Dude, I'm not racist! I have so many black friends!"
Yeah, this would be a dumb thing to say even if wasn't bullshit.
I mean, plenty of people don't encounter antisemitism in their daily life. So what? I don't either, for the most part, because I don't associate with antisemites, but I'm not dumb enough to imply that my social bubble represents the wider world. I am capable of reading, so I do have some idea of what goes on outside my bubble, and I am cognizant of the limits of my personal experience. The conversations I personally have at the dinner table do not have broad social implications.
If you read between the lines he's not saying he's Jewish by association because he has so many Jewish friends; he's saying he's Jewish by association because he's a billionaire.
Scum of the earth.
This is high school level cringe.
Worst. I feel like HS kids have better awareness.
I'm bumping this down to middle school.
Why does EVERY racist repeat the "but my best friend/wife is Black/Asian" trope? It's like they can't resist
I hope the ghosts follow him around to haunt his antisemitisic ass.
Haven't the poor souls suffered enough..
This guy is a piece of shit.
“Jewish by association”
Sounds pretty not good. Cultural appropriation with a side of self centeredness.
Also, pretty antisemitic.
Are there better words to clearly label this?

A musky behaviour
When Trey Parker and Matt Stone had a bunch of lily-white Mormon missionaries sing the line “Africans are African but we are Africa”, they were making a joke. This fucking guy, however…
People who got the memo by visiting one of the former concentration camps will not run their mouth like this afterwards.
Yeah, he didn't even go. He's just virtue signalling to his new racist backers.
Or he did go and fist pumped every time he thought no one was looking.
Which part of the brain gets satisfied by making things up in this way?
The heart
What did he “by association” himself after his visit to the US southern border?
Did he stop at a McDonalds along the way and “by association” make himself a minimum wage worker with two jobs and three roommates struggling to get by?
Fuck this nazi
he's got boot lickers, ass kissers, and 'yes'-men..
and people paid to put up with his shit..
i doubt he has any actual friends.
Top story tonight: Tiger attempts to change stripes; jungle unimpressed.
The world would have been better off if he had been friends with the submarine guy and got imploded by association.
What's that saying? If you don't know who the asshole in your friend group is, it's you? Also, the level of antisemitism we were looking for was none. None.
He addresses this in the interview.
This has got to the be the most misleading headline I’ve ever seen. His comments about “almost no antisemitism” had absolutely nothing to do with his visit to Auschwitz.
It's possible that he sees no antisemitism, given the fact that he's blind to reality. He's the modern equivalent of the emperor who had no clothes.
The guy makes my skin crawl..
It’s like he doesn’t read any posts on his own platform. Or even his own posts on the platform.
It's like he doesn't read
I'd stop right here.
lol, this guy.
