I’d hope those are the ones who got arrested for supporting a proscribed group. Iirc folks wearing the Hamas logo and dressing up as terrorists at previous protests were arrested for that.
I think we see enough racism toward other groups to accept that that second sentence isn’t true, but I agree with the first one. Tons of folks have at least a blind spot toward antisemitism and sometimes an active acceptance of it in a way that seems unique.
I enjoyed Howard Jacobson’s piece in today’s Observer on one specific form of it that’s found a new prevalence. It’s difficult to find even limited acknowledgement of it in our discourse at the moment so I’m grateful to those like him daring to write about it.
