In reply to the discussion: ADL: Antisemitic Incident Data Breaks All Previous Records [View all]Beastly Boy
(12,043 posts)I worry that two thousand years of unabated antisemitism does not bode well for the notion of transitory sentiment based on recent events. I am reluctant to stake my well-being on that.
I am more concerned about the pro-Palestine/anti Israel protests which contained antisemitic incidents than those that did not. Actually, I am rather neutral on the latter, in the same way as the ADL report in question is. It exempted the dickhead-free protests from being counted as antisemitic. I am also concerned because I am not aware of a single protest in which the aforementioned dickheads were called out on their hatred by the other protesters.
What ADL did was count a few antisemitic dickheads being antisemitic in each protest as a single antisemitic incident, and leave the dickhead-free protests out of their count.
The methodology is all there, spelled out in the report.
