    Antisemitism is wrong, but honestly I don’t understand how the same people that pull this crap get all shocked Pikachu face over antisemitism being on the rise.

      They were granted a get out of jail free card, for a long time.
      I made a comment on a German forum about how horrible Israel has been and it got taken down per German anti-antisemitic laws.

      Israel has a perverse incentive to not strongly resist antisemitism. Part of its national sales pitch is that it’s the only safe place for Jews. The existence of Jewish communities outside of Israel that are frankly much safer than that being led by the sorts of people leading Israel flies in the face of the pitch. Rising antisemitism in our own countries rebalances the risk in that equation more towards Israel’s favour.

      They’re counting on it to drive more Jews to move to the “safety” of Israel.
