Look, I understand the concerns but on average, at this moment in time a typical Jewish person is not nearly as at risk in this nation to get kidnapped off the street and sent to a concentration camp as our brown siblings (regardless of “legal status”).
The best way to protect all of us is to protect the most vulnerable of us. And yes, Israel has positioned itself as a genocidal ethnostate since 1948 and Zionism was heavily pushed by white supremacists. The ideology is fascist.
Jews are very much in trouble in this country. I mean, look at that jew who spray painted a swastika on a synagogue. Or when Israel bombed the largest population of jews in Iran. Jews are at threat throughout the world, they could be killed any second to be used as a false flag. While everyone was learning to not commit genocides, the one things Jews learned from the Holocaust is that you gotta burn a couple Reichstag buildings to get your way.
While I agree, they're not anymore at threat than any other marginalized group. Regular Muslims are killed at home by terrorist organizations in the middle east and abroad, Black ppl are still disproportionately killed by police and imprisoned in the US, false imprisonment of brown ppl by ICE, Trans ppl losing all their rights, African genocide, Muslim oppression in China, the rise of right wing nationalism in Western countries, etc. I don't want to downplay antisemitism but everyone who isn't a WASP is feeling it at this point
Rising American anti-Semitism isn’t a foreign influence operation.
If I'm not allowed to blame Putler for this, why should I even consider it a problem?

Oh boy, excited to hear his opinions on Israel-Palestine.
Yee-haw!
This article lost me saying dead Palestinian children pics posted from Europe.
Barely on the cusp of calling it "Fake News"
At this point it's a bunch of Spider-Man's pointing at each other, around the globe.
I think the problem is more that groypers are a newer movement and far more flexible politically. They dont hold all the baggage that the conservatives do. Coupled with a politically savy leader they can pivot on positions and compromise where popular to get power and enact their agenda.
Look at what nick is currently saying hes trying to make out like people are calling him a national socialist for wanting healthcare when its actually because he openly said he likes Hitler and is a Nazi.
Hes more dangerous because he will take populist positions and the average American will probably fall for it.
I think that's being a little dramatic. It's not like the US has a history of ignoring extremist political movements to the point that they achieve legitimate power in government.
If I understand the Groypers, the Jews are only one of an array of targets they have in mind.
They probably end up targeting women and, ironically, LGBTQ, just as much, maybe more. I say ironically since Fuentes is gay.
It's also ironic that they are white nationalists, given Fuentes' own heritage.
I mean, the Nazis had a gay person high in the regime.
Well, for a while. And then, after a lot of murder, they didn't.
I worked with one. An insufferable, stupid, hateful, jackass
