Tag yourself, I'm Seriously Off-Model Smurfette

Robert Bloch, a thin man with mssy hair and glasses, sits at his typewriter in a library.

When I first watched Spinal Tap, I had to be informed that they weren't a real band.

I knew it was a comedy, to be clear, but I assumed they were a real band poking fun at themselves, like an extreme version of the Beatles in A Hard Day's Night.

Shot of the individual's X page. Their antisemitic "happy merchant" cartoon avatar also has the text "wanted for usury and sabotage". They have 264 followers.

...okay, Glinner is many things, but until now I had no reason to suspect him of antisemitism.

Old Macdonald had a Farm
They call the Rising Sun
And on that Farm he had a cow
And Lord I know, I’m one.

The bill has been approved. Israeli prisons will turn into guillotines for Palestinians. Hundreds will be executed in the next few weeks. 9300 hostages now in Israeli custody. Dark day for humanity. Unforgettable memory in the Palestinian cause history.

Israel’s holocaust of Palestinians reached a horrific new low today. No different than trains heading to gas chambers. Shame on everyone silent about this.
