It's Now Socially Acceptable to Tell Jews How to Feel About Antisemitism

The chutzpah on these goyim!

One of the key features of the proliferation of Jew-hate that we are currently experiencing is the ease with which non-Jews feel entitled to tell us how to think and feel not only about a conflict occurring in a desert thousands of miles away, but about ourselves. Such actions include the following:

• Demanding that we classify the Israel’s actions in Gaza as a “genocide” or a “holocaust,” without regard to what these terms actually mean.

• Telling us that if we do not vote a certain way, it goes against our “best interests.” It’s reminiscent of language used leading to our psychotic demagogue’s election (both times), and not necessarily directed towards Jews. It carries the following connotation: you are too stupid to know what’s good for you, so we must tell you.

• Twisting around or altering certain terms related to Israel and Jews to suit poorly thought-out rhetorical goals. Examples include hasbara, Israel Defense Forces, and antisemitism. This is called cultural appropriation, which these same “progressive” types have previously defined as a sin right up there with first degree murder.

• Trying to rationalize Jew-hate by exploiting the anti-Zionism loophole, which according to them can’t be antisemitic because “there are Jews doing it too, and they’re the good ones.”

Let’s start with the political right. Check out what this unhinged monster said as he talked his way into a second term:

One might stop to ponder for a moment why this orange oaf felt compelled to bring up Jews and their relationship with their religion at a campaign event in Dayton, Ohio where I’m guessing few if any Jews were actually present. But let’s set that aside for a moment. The main question: what does he know about being Jewish?

Let’s take a more recent example from an individual who no doubt defines himself as a progressive championing a cause of the oppressed. Meet Edward Ahmed Mitchell, one of the legal minds on Mahmoud Khalil’s dream team of 19 lawyers:

Here are the highlights from our friend and ally Edward:

• The anti-Zionist encampment at Columbia couldn’t have been antisemitic because they had “Passover events every Friday night.”

• Muslims were the one who “welcomed the Jews back” to the holy land and protected them. Which year was that, again? I’m guessing the one when the Jews conveniently got thrown out of literally every other Muslim country in the same region.

• Israel is denying Gaza food, water, medicine, electricity, iPhones, terrorist scarves, copies of Mein Kampf, puppies, chocolate, hummus, Teslas, Ms. Rachel livestreams, rockets, and an Iron Dome. They aren’t denying them hostages, however. This all clearly falls within the facts of U.S. immigration law relating to the rights of a green card holder, and to state otherwise is an “anti-Palestinian talking point.”

Given all of the above, how can any Jewish person possibly think that someone defending Mahmoud Khalil could actually be an antisemite? Beats me!

So it’s now happening from all ends of the aisle, everywhere we turn. We aren’t progressive enough for the “from the river to the sea” crowd — they hate Zionists (~90% of Jews). We aren’t conservative enough for the Trumpanzees — they hate Democrats (~70% of American Jews). They’ve set us politically adrift.

So what are we? Perhaps just symbols of moral failure, as has been our role throughout the entirety of western civilization? That may be the way they wish to characterize us, but it’s our responsibility to resist it. To borrow a phrase from many an after-school special: “just say ‘no.’”

We would not and should not tolerate this type of condescension towards any other group of people. It’s up to the members of a minority to decide how they feel about the issues affecting their group; it’s not outsiders’ job to tell them. I always thought this fact was fairly obvious, especially to self-described adherents to the modern left. That nothing makes sense is simply a feature of the strange world we are living in.
