Well, he's definitely into fashion. I've written about so much of what we're seeing as a sort of perverse mating ritual. Mostly with well-off white young people who like the Brownshirts in another era, have sexualized hatred of Jewish — and as it build up steam, the violence against Jews.
I’ve this myself over the last few days. Every time I think we are at the bottom of the barrel. Something shows me we are just at the tip of the iceberg. It’s the smugness that is so infuriating. “Look, someone pulled down a Palestinian flag so hunting down Jews, stabbing them and stomping on their heads is justified”. It’s their arrogance and self righteousness that is so so hurtful and infuriating at the same time.
I am stunned at some people that I've known for years that are suddenly showing their disdain for Israel and Jews in general. My Grandparents and Dad were Jewish. I am disappointed with them and angry at the ignorance
Until people face their shadow with honesty, they will find a scapegoat upon whom to project. And Jews have been the favorite scapegoat for those in denial the last few thousand years. And since these people believe they are virtuous, they are unwilling to consider alternative perspectives that will shatter their delusion.
HON is a good example of what I call Palestinian chic. It is a fashion statement.

Well said! Thank you!

This is how it goes every 75 years

I'm not sure it's "ignorance." I think it's something far less curable...
True. Quite frightening too. My Grandparents were German Jews. Why don't people understand history?
I’m starting to agree Peter.
