If you're Jewish, how has October 7 impacted your outlook?

I will never forget the Trump supporters in Charlottesville chanting "Jews will not replace us." Voting for Harris.

I am disturbed at how casual, smiling anti-semitism is now acceptable. It is now ok to assume, out loud, that any Jewish politician or journalist is biased and cannot do their jobs properly. It is now ok, in the public sphere, to call Jewish people liars and brainwashers and anti-American.

I am also distubured at how cleverness wins now, instead of logic and social science. Statements such as "well, the war didn't start on 10/7 so 10/7 was just another day in it" are said in the same breath as "ceasefire"...there is no logic here. Or, how Jewish people are just called "zionists" now, and that give you the right to call them evil, stupid, etc. Or that Palestinians deserve a state, now, because they have been angry since the 1940s. That's is, that is the reason. To stop their anger, we need to give them what they want.


Israel is ultimately an illegitimate state gifted to Jews by colonial powers to atone for European prosecution. It wasn’t their land to give away and eventually this historical wrong will be addressed. Israel is the most hated country on the planet due to its illegitimacy and its decades of aggression and oppression.

A country doesn’t become our ally just because it takes billions of our dollars and buys our politicians. It may make us obvious stooges but that is neither friendship nor allyship.

Consider something crazy...maybe our politicians and diplomats have studied the issue and actually believe what they advocate for, and are not actually robots controlled by those awful Jews. They don't HAVE to be against Israel, as if being pro Israel is defying the laws of physics and going against gravity. Maybe, shockingly, they are doing what they want.

No the fact that they receive our funds shows the allyship.

Wow - spoken like a true supporter of Hamas and Hezbollah, not to mention Iran. You are seriously, dangerously ignorant.

Another way of saying you are a zionist. A racist and supremist ideology.

The diplomatic community as a whole detests the Israeli Government, which lies to them repeatedly, and most politicians believe they have no alternative but to support Israel because otherwise massive amounts of money will flow to other candidates to attack them. The main exceptions are right-wing evangelical Republicans who support Israel because they think its actions will hasten the end of days (i.e., the rapture), but these are not intelligent people.

You just don't like Jews. Every argument flows from this. I don't like Jews, they are liars. I don't like Jews, why the U.S. support Israel, I don't like them, so it doesn't make sense the country I live in supports them. I immigrated here, why doesn't the U.S. listen to me? I am an American now, listen to me!
