and I stand up for Jews because a long time ago I saw where the extreme bigotry of the left was leading. You would think people would thank someone who sees ahead but they don't, usually we are mocked instead. 2)

We are on the cusp of something horrific. people are always raising money on slogans like " Never again" and "fightin nazis" but when push comes to shove, they look the other way. the numbers of these attacks on Jews is out of hand, 3)

yet my non Jewish friends almost seem embarrassed to post anything about them. I have not seen a single non Jewish facebook friend post about these attacks. Oh when they can blame trump I see it, and lest be honest they can blame trump any time its not a POC doing it. 4)

Yes btw, it is black people who are responsible for the bulk of these attacks, and yes most of them seem to share a certain ideology. so its less race based than it might seem at first glance, The rampant antisemitism being displayed is straight up Islamic and left wing,
5)

its pushed by people hiding behind human rights language, and its excused by them constantly.

Whenever we see discussions about the holocaust I see a lot of hand wringing, virtue signalling and talking about how " it could never happen here" 6)

and "omg how could intelligent people just stand by?" well you see it now.

People mocked me when I said that white supremacists were a tiny minority among antisemites, that the constant haranguing of Israel on campus by the left was far more dangerous 7)

because it empowered open antisemites. People claimed I was ignoring antisemitism from the right to focus on the left. the thing is, neo nazis are outliers, they are not in positions of power or even influence, while the wicked antisemitism of the left has become mainstream, 8)

from Cartoons like the Harley quinn cartoon pushing antisemitic tropes and retconning villains like the Penguin into Jews, from groups like If not Now claiming that jews are stealing someone elses land, 9)

from Jstreet telling people that colonisers can become indigeneous through land theft.

I have been telling people we live in the age of bullshit because of the lack of intelligent and fair news, but we are seeing actual Pogroms in the united states, 10)

and if you don't know what a pogrom is, feel free to google it. I don't even want to talk about it anymore, I am too angry at the hypocrisy on display. 11)
