[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is something really odd going on.  I am in a different bethesda cluster, and there was a swastika found at our ES this week, and two found at our MS a couple of weeks ago.  We have a very large Jewish population at our school and I’ve never seen anything but total acceptance, at least at the ES level.  We’ve been in these schools for a decade and this never happened even once.  I feel like there must be some internet source feeding this or some other external factor I am missing.[/quote]

I'm with you. We are in the Whitman district. There's always been a strong Jewish presence here. It's nothing new. Everyone grows up with Jewish friends, classmates, colleagues and families. There's never been any significant issues. I also think something from "outside" has impacted a few kids. Maybe it's TikTok. Maybe it's how Kanye West and Kyrie Irving have normalized anti-semitism. Maybe it's some idiots trying to be edgy. Don't know. It's weird. If I were to guess, it's a couple of maladjusted kids who know a swastika is going to make an impact and this is how they feel alive and powerful. [/quote]
