There were attacks on Jewish New Yorkers almost every day last week, reports New York KPIX 11.
According to KPIX:
MondayThe attackers have been predominantly members of the black community. Here is a sense of how at least one group is focusing hate on Jews.
A 65-year-old man said he was punched and kicked near Manhattan by another man who was yelling "F*** you, Jew," the New York Police Department said. Steven Jorge, 28, was arrested. It was not clear if he had an attorney.
On the same day, a 67-year-old man in Brooklyn reported that a group of teenagers approached his 6-year-old son and another 7-year-old boy, striking them from behind. The victims were treated for minor injuries.
Tuesday
A 25-year-old man in Brooklyn told police a group of people began yelling anti-Semitic slurs at him as he walked. One of them also threw their drink at him.
Also in Brookyln, a 56-year-old man said a group of people approached him and one of them punched him.
Wednesday
On Christmas Day, a 40-year-old man dressed in "traditional religious clothing" walking home was approached by an individual who blocked his path. That individual allegedly punched the victim in the face when the man tried to let him pass.
Thursday
A woman was charged with assault as a hate crime after she allegedly attacked a 34-year-old Jewish woman in front of her child. Ayana Logan is accused of using her bag to hit the woman, NYPD said.
Friday

How is this different compared to Trump's hate of hardworking immigrants when he says it is murderers and rapists coming over the border?My college, @SDSU, invited a spokesperson of the Nation of Islam, Ava Muhammad, to speak on campus about reparations.— Dylan Meisner 🌐🌷 (@DylMeisner) December 22, 2019
Here she is saying that Jews are "godless... blood-sucking parasites [that] sell us alcohol, drugs, depraved sex, and every other type of low-life thing." pic.twitter.com/04YbWoLHX4
It is the same basic "they are evil" argument against a different group.
As far as I am concerned more than any other ethnic group, Jews have been decent to me and have given me more opportunities than any others.
As far as Hispanic immigrants, they have never given me any trouble and seem to be very hard-working people. The few I know are decent and smart.
When you come across hate like that above, what you are witnessing is a primitive instinct being triggered that has no place in a civilized world. These haters don't understand the fundamentals of a civilized world.
Civilization is about recognizing there are differences between individuals, groups, tribes, sexes, etc. You interact and exchange where it is mutually beneficial and otherwise leave other people, groups, tribes and sexes alone.

This does not fit the false narrative of White right wingers attacking Jews.
ReplyDeleteI know blacks cannot be guilty of hate crimes against whites because reasons, but can they be guilty of hate crimes against Jews and other minorities? Boy, the leftists are going to have a hell of a time solving this Rubix's Cube.
ReplyDeleteThanks to Trump's executive order it is now against the law to criticize anyone who is Jewish for anything. So Jews have leapfrogged past Blacks to the top of the Victim totem pole. I believe Muslims are still at the pinnacle, but I haven't really kept up. So by my reckoning, a Black person can be charged with a hate crime against Jews but not vice versa. Although it's all moot since we know that all Hate Crimes are because of White Supremacists.

ReplyDelete-- RW's choice of words is critical here, in that he focuses on real, flesh & blood individuals within these groups with whom he has actually interacted, as opposed to drawing conclusions about entire groups. It is a very collectivist mindset to claim that "Jews are [ ], Hispanics are [ ], immigrants are [ ], Trump voters are [ ]." Within each such group there are wide variations among the constituent individuals, and thus there will be overlaps between groups. We're all guilty of collectivizing on occasion, but it seems to me that you should regard people of any group as individuals first and foremost, and treat them with respect, unless they actually give you a reason not to do so.
I always say to SJWs that if, for example, you really want a post-racial world, then stop identifying and counting people by race; just identify and count them as fellow human beings. Identifying people by race, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, etc. is a statistic that is only important for state policy, which we ought to abhor.
Well, that's the results of diversity and 'victimhood' status in a mobocracy for you, and the Orwellian 'Some are more equal than others.'
