For those currently attacking @GretaThunberg over a cuddly toy, an exhaustive thread to add perspective. That *any* depiction of an octopus (or squid) is somehow an expression of antisemitism is utterly ahistorical and has - ironically - become a trope. 1/x

@GrodeckW @GretaThunberg I had no idea that octopus was/is antisemitic and I'm almost 60 years young, not 20 something

@Fsalt @GrodeckW @GretaThunberg It isn't.
