Thinking about all the antisemitism I'm seeing on social media around the whole hurricane thing and, like a normal person, it made me wonder: how can I pivot from this to criticizing Israel and a Jewish organization?

Thinking about the rampant, nazi-level antisemitism flying on social media that's surrounding the hurricane recovery and preparation. Can't help but think about the damn ADL releasing that "antisemitism is up 5000%" report that counted every pro-Palestine demonstration as "antisemitism."

I don't know-ADL praised Musk for banning "River to the sea" references like ten minutes after he participated approvingly in a discussion about how Hitler was right.I think that there has been a tactical decision to prioritize (The often antisemetic) anti-Israel rhethoric at the cost of other stuff

Maybe they expressed it poorly but I am concerned about rising anti-semitism and that dovetails with the ADL no longer being a reliable resource for tracking incidents of anti-semitism. We need good data to combat it.

I’ve been complaining about it on my social media. I’m exhausted by my friends and family who rendered garments about protests and antisemitism on campus when the antisemites who might actually kill us get to roam the halls of power and egg on the brown shirts.
