    I think antisemitism is a real problem today. In my country, the UK, within the last year or so, there was an arson attack on Jewish ambulances in London, and a stabbing attack in Manchester in which two Jewish men were killed. Both incidents seem to have been hate crimes.

    Just to point out: I don’t support Netanyahu or his government’s genocide of Palestinians, but I’m not going to blame all Jews for that, because I’m not racist.

    Anybody can be the victim of ethnic discrimination, regardless of how “powerful”, or powerless, other members of your ethnic group are.

      Do you support the existence of an israeli state?

      Alot of hate crimes happen against other different communities as well. I dont think jews need special treatment. All this rhetoric does is justify the zionist argument of a safe country for jews

        I don’t think my view of Israel changes the fact that antisemitism exists

        Alot of hate crimes happen against other different communities as well

        Yes, and there are specific programmes to tackle those different types of hate crimes, motivated by Islamophobia, or homophobia, or whatever it might be
