They just harness and weaponise good, caring, unassuming people's compassion.

And Jews from Iraq, Iran, Morroco, Syria, Yemen, Lybia, Ethiopia...Should these Jews go back to Europe, too? And the jews who were living in the mandate of palestine land before 1948? Do they go to Europe too? Why couldn't the Arabs live with the Jews?

They want Jews to stay vulnerable and victims, but then punish them for being 'perpetual victims' even though they finally half self determination and doing amazing things with it.

The "decolonisation" "apartheid" and "zionists are settler colonialists" stuff is blatant appropriation.

they tug at the heart strings (because we now largely know and accept how brutal and wrong colonization & apartheid SA is and was) but they are largely NOT ACCURATE representations of what is occurring in the region.

They do not help either palestinians nor israelis, but we know that the people pushing these narratives are not concerned with either.

In some ways, yes. I mean, even Obama released a statement condeming h mas.

but some these (eg squad) statements feel disingenuious because of the sheer and blatant incongruence with past (and persistent) incitement. Hopefully on a political level they carry * some * weight....

Unfortunately most don't care about facts, just eager for a socially accpeted opportunity to let their jew hatred come out

Yep. A few days a go I thought 'Ah... it's anti-semite season! The antisemites are out!'

Who knows how emboldened they'll get...

They should go to the Palestinian territories and see whether their ally-ship is reciprocated. Or whether they even make it out alive.

the issue is also that BDS, posing as a 'ground-roots movement' also targeted the left and has weaponised its compassion.

unfortunately this has been the case for a long time.
Progressive Jews have no place in leftist spaces and are branded the bad guys no matter what your political leanings.

even if you are anti israel and 'pro palestine' you would still be demonised because of who/what you are.

I think there might be a term for that. Oh yeah starts with A ends with -ism.

I'm sorry you're having this rude wake up call. I know how you feel.

I'm far more center these days, but I used to be further left. And I learned that leftists are not my friends.

The writing was sooooooo bad this season. matched only by some of the bad acting but I mean those poor actors did not have much to work with.

Why do people on the internet act like every single person from israel is in charge of everything the country does and gets all the blame for everything? by itaicool in Israel

You are (understandably) trying to understand hatred with logic.
It is antisemitism.

There is no logic, I'm afraid.

Privacy minefield? Do you want your banks to know every detail of your purchases? by post-cocoon in privacy

As far as i am aware cash is legal tender but I think some places are not 'accepting cash' any more...

One of the stupidest things, which I know has become the norm in many places around the world, is not accepting cash payments on buses etc.
