How to Fight Anti-Semitism Hardcover – September 10, 2019The NY Times is all identity politics, all the time. Every day it has many article encouraging conflicts between ethnic groups and other groups.
by Bari Weiss ...
Tree of Life, the synagogue where Bari Weiss became a bat mitzvah, ...
Like many, Weiss long believed this country could escape the rising tide of anti-Semitism. But now the luckiest Jews in history are beginning to face a three-headed dragon known all too well to Jews of other times and places: the physical fear of violent assault, the moral fear of ideological vilification, and the political fear of resurgent fascism and populism.
No longer the exclusive province of the far right, the far left, and assorted religious bigots, anti-Semitism now finds a home in identity politics and the reaction against identity politics, in the renewal of America First isolationism and the rise of one-world socialism, and in the spread of Islamist ideas into unlikely places.
The "luckiest Jews in history" are the big promoters of identity politics. Weiss included. It is obvious that she thinks that Jews should run the world, and that any naysayers should be ostracized as anti-Semitic. And she was brainwashed into these views in a synagogue at an early age.
She particularly wants Jews to be sheltered from "the moral fear of ideological vilification". Note that she does not say anything about religious persecution. She may not be religious, for all I know. But she does share ideologies with liberal American Jews, and she does not want those views to be vilified.
The idea that NY Times opinion columnists need protection of ideological vilification is just laughable. The NY Times is the mainstream news, and it is always vilifying its enemies. Jews have higher status than any other ethnic group.
And I am not including the NY Times article on lesbian crime in space. It involved a child custody dispute between two lesbians, but it never mentions the word "lesbian" or "father".
Another female Jewish NY Times columnist, Michelle Goldberg, also acts as if she speaks for Jews. Her latest column says:
Obviously, American Jews have long leaned liberal, and have always been overrepresented in progressive movements. But there’s a difference between leftists who happen to be Jewish and explicitly Jewish left-wing activism. “People who may not have been that close to Jewishness, they feel suddenly like it’s very important to express who they are as Jews in the context of their activism and in the context of their collective memory,” said Arielle Angel, the editor of Jewish Currents.Her complaint is that today's leftists have turned anti-Semitic, while most right-wingers are pro-Jewish and pro-Israel. She thinks that it is better for Jews to side with anti-Semitic leftists than with pro-Jewish right-wingers like Trump.
If you need proof that the NY Times distorts the news in order to create racial strife and blame Whites, just see Ann Coulter's latest column. You will never trust another NY Times crime story again.
