Why would you say such a thing?

The New York City Dyke March deleted and apologized for a post to social media condemning antisemitism and saying that Jews are welcome that was made ahead of Saturday's match in Manhattan.
The original... "We have received many messages over the last several months, asking the committee members of Jewish Dykes are safe and welcome to the 2024 NYC Dyke March. The answer is yes. As a committee, we want to reiterate our position that we stand against antisemitism in all forms."
The post also acknowledged the "senseless loss of Jewish life" during the October 7 massacre, though it contained multiple paragraphs accusing Israel of committing genocide in Gaza, and focusing on the plight of the Palestinian Arabs. It also claimed that all of the people who have been killed in Gaza have been civilians.
This post was removed within an hour of its posting, with a new post apologizing for it taking its place.
The second post read, "Late at night on June 27, a member of the Dyke March Committee posted a statement on our Instagram. The statement was approved by several other committee members. However, it was published without a full committee-wide vote and does not reflect the official stance of the Dyke March (emphasis in original). The post was a mistake. Therefore, within 30 minutes we deleted it."
"We take full responsibility and apologize for the process and communication breakdown that led us here, as well as the harm our statement caused. Dyke March unapologetically stands in support of Palestinian liberation. This moment is a critical reminder to our committee to remain firm in our stance that anti-Zionism is not antisemitism, and any language we put out which is not clearly opposed to a Zionist, imperialist agenda is harmful to all," the second post continued.

Not all Semites are Jews.
>> What about Lesbian Jews? Can they hate themselves?
Hating themselves is not merely permitted, it’s mandatory.
One cannot help but remember S.Clay Wilson’s early works from ‘68-70. I was actually gifted an S.Clay Wilson original back then by a friend of his, which, sadly, I have lost.

I think you need some kind of OSHA permit to post it.
Is there a dyke march in Gaza or Tehran?
They momentarily forgot who pays the bills...
Nothing new. The Chicago Dyke March and Chicago Slut Walk, along with some of the media has been banning Jews for at least 5 years. I feel terrible I'm not welcome. Related threads

The phrase "anti Semitism" came into common use in the late 1800's / early 1900's as a way of saying "anti Jewish" in the developed world without being seen as too racist. It is an actual dog-whistle.
LOL!!!!
Laz would hit ‘em....with a baseball bat.
Unfortunately, a public display of massive psychological pathology. Just as glad they excluded Jews.
Jew women are not real women. Men are more real women than Jew women. Trust the science.
Wait ‘til my wife hears.
Anti-Zionism is antisemitism. Douglas Murray summed it up perfectly by saying “imagine someone who was anti Pakistan. They want Pakistan to go back to Indian control. ‘But we don’t have anything against the Pakistani people, they just shouldn’t have their own country’”. It’s a preposterous contortion in logic. Why is Jewish national liberation different from any other nation?
These people are confused. They don’t even know who the oppressed are, or why they are oppressed. They conflate strength with ideology. If you are strong you are bad even if your enemy is pure evil. The Arabs don’t view the world this way. They see strength as an asset. People prefer a strong horse vs a weak one. In the west we pity the weak horse and favor it. Total misunderstanding of these cultures. And Israel is full of Arabs, Jews and non Jews, and live in a neighborhood of Arabs. They understand it better that the NYC Dyke Club.
Doesn’t matter. The dictionary definition of antisemitism is an animus towards Jewish people.
That’s a whole Lotta ugly in that picture.
