I totally get why people think this is an antisemitic dog whistle, and I think Jamie Foxx was genuinely just referencing Judas?

Key word here is “THEY”. If he had posted “HE” then yes, I would’ve believed he was referring to Judas (which… we have clever ways to call out fake friends but whatever) but he’s wording is referring to a group. Not sure what he was thinking or where he was going but it does look antisemitic at first glance

That's 100% how I read it.

Accusing him of antisemitism over this post is a bit of a stretch.

i just read about this because apparently jennifer aniston liked the post(?) but then claimed she didn't and asserted she does not tolerate any form of hate unless said hate is directed toward amber heard or angelina jolie. fuck jamie foxx if this was truly meant as it reads.

The strikethrough is 100% accurate.

JFC Everyone in Hollywood is trash. Every single one of them one way or another.

yeah, i was "team jen" for a long time (while managing not to be disgusting toward angelina, mind you) but her antics in recent years have really soured me toward her.

As we all thought, he was referring to Judas pic.twitter.com/tyD8P6b9gJ

"Beware of the fake friends in your life" was always an option here. People are so fucking annoying

[slaughtermatic]

it was nice of him to still apologize, dude is classy.

I truly never realized this was anti Semitic.

Whenever I've heard this used I just rolled my eyes bc generally a person alludes to them being a good person and generally they are not.

[tinkerbellpixee]

yeah it's definitely anti-semitic. I've been called a christ killer and on Easter, "as a joke", I used to get text messages saying," thanks for killing jesus!" like every year.

[kawaiiairbender]

I'm so sorry that has happened to you.
