Really disappointed in the lack of conversation about the antisemetic attack in Australia

Frankly, the only person who stood up to the attackers was Lebanese Christian. None of the Jewish people from the large crowd that attended the event went to protect their own people. Regardless, the Jewish communities in US still continue to support Islam and keep bashing Christianity. Go figure.


It's being reported that he is a Muslim from Syria.

His cousin confirmed he is Muslim.

These comments are pretty telling. I guess no one should check the news because if it's not happening at their house, doesn't matter.
Here is a link to gofundme related to the incident. Do you see anything at all about Jews, Hannukah, antisemitism? Me either.


You do realize that clicking on something doesn’t make something more important or better. If you want to spend your energy wringing your hands about things you cannot control, go right ahead. I’m gonna change the things I can and leave the rest.

Here is some factual information as opposed to all the BS being bandied about here:

A tough time indeed. But sadly, very few people care.


Why are you so deeply invested in making this true despite all evidence to the contrary? There's been plenty of attention given to this incident, especially given that it occurred in a different country, and the fact that we have so many mass shooting incidents that it's hardly news these days unfortunately.

Everyone has already said the things you want them to say, and this country has made it clear that it has no intention of doing anything about gun violence, so what else is there to say?


Calm down. I’m not that poster.


Did you write the comment I replied to? If not, I'm not sure why you responded. And if so, I very much meant what I said to you, and it's you who needs to calm down.


Please — unclench.

Lol really? On a thread with a bunch of posters complaining about everyone not being properly upset for them about a thing that happens on a literal daily basis to people of all stripes? They are being ridiculous and so are you.

The suspects: The father-son duo were identified as 50-year-old Sajid Akram, who moved to the country in 1998 and was killed at the scene, and 24-year-old Naveed Akram, who was born in Australia and is in custody. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said they were “driven” by extreme ideology, and were interviewed by security services in 2019 but “weren’t part of a wider cell.”

Then quit complaining when people are rightfully upset about Jewish people being targeted.

You left one thing out. If news involves the Jews then there is no news. Why should anyone care about them? Right?

No one said that. They are responding to OP's assertion that the shooting hasn't been given enough attention. People are pointing out that this is a near daily occurrence at this point and unlikely to elicit the response that OP is looking for.

Do you really think TikTok posts represents actual caring about something? People can acre about stuff and not make a tik tok about it. What do you want people to do, run into the streets and wail about something that happened halfway around the world?
