I don't mean to disparage the real risk of antisemitism, but this might be making a mountain out of a molehill, and "thetimesofisrael" isn't my favourite source in these times.
My point is rather that stabbings are pretty common in NYC. This guy have probably did have antisemitic motivations, I believe that, but in a city so large and so prone to violence, that's sort of bound to happen at some point. It doesn't justify it, but I think one shouldn't be drawing conclusions of "growing antisemitism" because of one crazy in New York.
But you're going to do it anyway? Interesting strategy.
This is a really stupid take. The violence did happen, and the motive appears to be ethnic hatred. Curious that you want the media to stay silent about it.
So you're just going to pretend that this is the first ever antisemitic incident that has ever occurred in NYC or elsewhere in recent history? The article doesn't even cite rising antisemitism in NYC, but rather globally, which is objectively true. Antisemitic hate crimes (like this one) are on the rise worldwide.
Ngl, you sound like you have a pretty specific agenda with this response...
I am? When? You can read my future? What are the winning lottery numbers for this week's draw?
The word "appears" doing a lot of heavy lifting there. When researching sources, the stories have lines such as "allegedly", kind of a lot in them. And still, I'm not questioning the veracity of it, am I?
Have you heard of "media criticism"? Or if you practice media criticism at all, it makes you an antisemite?
Where on Earth did you pull this shit from?
The point is exactly that in a city the size of New York — unfortunate and unwanted as it is — hate crimes of all types, including antisemitism, are something that has always, (but hopefully will not always) happen.
With how explosive the rhetoric and protesting around this topic is, I fail to the importance of this story in the bigger picture.
I'm not gonna start whatabouting by linking several instances of some other group getting attacked, because this isn't a competition on who is getting hatecrimed the most.
The point I am making is that unfortunate as this is, it's implying something that it doesn't back up.
