When Jewish women — of both sexes — are forced to confront the fact that White American Gentiles are fed up with the corrupt Marxist status quo it can only mean gas chambers are being built and the railroads are setting up their delivery schedules.
Wait, you mean it doesn’t?
With Trump’s rise, Jewish millennials confront the anti-Semitism only their grandparents remember
“This feels like the closest thing to the type of anti-Semitism that my grandparents talk about experiencing in Poland.”
That’s 24-year-old Morriah Kaplan, talking about her experience of coming to terms with the anti-Semitism in America that Donald Trump’s candidacy has breathed new life into. Several stories of late have touched on the topic of Jewish millennials coming to terms with the fact that anti-Semitism is clearly alive and well after a short lifetime of thinking it was a dying phenomenon.
The New York Times has a piece penned by Brown University junior Benjamin Gladstone in which he discusses being ostracized by his peers because of his “leadership roles in campus Jewish organizations” and notes his fellow students have little-to-no appetite for engaging anti-Semitism in American culture as a legitimate cause.
Even as they rightfully protest hate crimes against Muslim Americans and discrimination against black people, they wrongfully dismiss attacks on Jews (who are the most frequent targets of religiously motivated hate crimes in the United States) and increasing anti-Semitism in the American political arena, as can be seen in Donald Trump’s flirtations with the “alt-right.” They don’t take issue with calls for the destruction of the world’s only Jewish state.
And then there are millennial Jews themselves waking up to the discrimination and hatred they had mostly relegated to the historical confines of a bygone era. Politico reports:
“What Trump has brought to the surface is, in many ways, the first blatant anti-Semitic experience for the vast majority of American millennials,” says Zach [Reizes], an angular and handsome sophomore at Ohio University. On campus, he’s active both with AIPAC, the right-of-center bulwark of Jewish politics, and J-Street, it’s younger and left-leaning rival. […]
To some young Jews, this election season has felt like a cold shower. “Whether you experienced no anti-Semitism growing up, or a watered-down version of it, I think most young people felt like anti-Semitism was dying,” says Debbie Rabbinovich, 19, a sophomore and Hillel member at the University of Pennsylvania. Other young activists were reconsidering what they had heard for years from an older generation. “For a long time we were told that anti-Semitism was everywhere, and we rolled our eyes at that,” says Morriah Kaplan, 24, a leader in the left-leaning activist group If Not Now. But, she acknowledged, “This feels like the closest thing to the type of anti-Semitism that my grandparents talk about experiencing in Poland.”
Yes, that quote appeared twice in this story. It was worth repeating.
Donald Trump’s political rise has in many ways born an eerie resemblance to the rise of Adolf Hitler in 1930s Germany. If you have found that scenario a little too far-fetched for 21st-century America, looking at the phenomenon through the eyes of Jewish American millennials provides another window into the horror that is dawning in the United States—before our very eyes.
