There’s something really dangerous about the kind of antisemitism we’re seeing now. And it’s not just because it’s so out in the open. It’s because it makes Jewish fear sound ridiculous, and hyperbolic. That’s what makes this moment different, and honestly, even scarier. For a long time, Jews in the West could talk about antisemitism and people would at least listen. “Never again” meant something. Holocaust survivors were still alive. People took it seriously when Jews said: we’ve seen where this can go. But now it's all different. Now if you say Jews aren’t safe in America, people act like you’re hysterical. Mention the Holocaust, and you’re accused of emotional manipulation. Say you’re scared, and they laugh you off like you’re using old-fashioned language from your grandfather’s era. Like we’re trying to guilt the world into caring. And that’s the scariest part. Not just the hate, but how people have learned to tune out our fear. This new kind of antisemitism didn’t just pop up again, it came back smarter. It came back disguised. Wrapped in “social justice” terms. Wrapped in academic jargon. Instead of yelling “Jew,” they use words like “Zionist,” “colonizer,” “global elite.” Same hate. Same target. New packaging. And when we try to call it out, we’re mocked and told that we’re overreacting, playing the victim, or clinging to the Holocaust for lack of better arguments And suddenly the most basic Jewish survival instincts—warn early, speak up, don’t be quiet this time—sound to the world like overused lines from an old play. It’s disgusting. Imagine living in a world where Jewish suffering has been talked about so much, and so often, that people start treating it like background noise. Where the words “never again” don’t raise alarms anymore, they roll eyes. Where every time we say, “This is serious,” we’re met with a shrug or worse, sarcasm. The modern Jew is now stuck. If we speak too loudly, we’re told to calm down. If we stay quiet, we disappear. Either way, we lose. And that’s what this new wave of antisemitism has figured out. Not just how to threaten Jews, but how to make our warnings feel annoying. Like spam and a broken record. It messes with your head. Makes you second-guess yourself. Am I being too dramatic? Too sensitive? Do I sound like I’m trying to “use the Holocaust”? It turns memory into something shameful, and our pain into something suspicious. That’s why this version is so dangerous. It’s not just attacking Jews physically. It’s stripping us of our ability to defend ourselves at all. Our credibility. Our voice. The one thing we had after all these years. Our parents’ generation said “never again” and the world paused to listen. We say it now, and the world rolls its eyes. This is where we are: Jewish kids needing guards at school. Synagogues burned down. Crowds marching with genocidal chants. Professors spewing hate from podiums. Celebrities spreading conspiracies. And still, when we say we’re scared, we’re the problem. It’s not just the hatred. It’s the fact that people don’t care that it’s happening. So yeah, this is different. This is worse. Because we’re not just fighting for safety anymore. We’re fighting for the right to say we’re in danger and not be laughed at.

Disturbing new data from the @ADL shows antisemitism continues to skyrocket globally, with nearly half of the 58k adults surveyed displaying deeply antisemitic attitudes. That extrapolated to the global population would be approximately 2.2b people. With hateful incidents rising and the number of direct witnesses of the Holocaust declining, we are at a particularly dangerous time. As the child of survivors, I am particularly appalled to see so many young people express doubt that the Holocaust is historically accurate. It’s a dangerous, dangerous trend. We need all of our leaders - in government, business, philanthropy - to confront this challenge head on and use their platforms to speak out. wsj.com/world/nearly-h…

@afalkhatib @Ayelet__Shaked @naftalibennett Thank you, Ahmed. You are a source of hope in our darkest days. Most Israelis and Palestinians may not have today the capacity to believe in co-existence. But to start changing hearts and minds and chart a better path, we must have people like you, who help us see the other.

COVID Update: There are few more important or sensitive topics than kids & their health. They are being made pawns in a dangerous game. We need to be put a stop to it. 1/

COVID Update: I’ve had dozens of people ask me with Delta here, what is the COVID end game. Because I don’t know, I interviewed 6 experts on various elements— variants, vaccines, global, policy, ev biology & historical precedence. Will break it down here. 1/

Pretty damn impressive Thanks Darren Lu @Reddit
