Did you even read the article?

Here’s an excerpt:

[A] phenomenon that is often pointed to as a sign of rising danger for Jews, and why antisemitism is treated as uniquely important, is the supposed increase in far-right rhetoric and politics becoming public, including among mainstream politicians in the West. But the reality is that this fascist revival directs its actual structural power elsewhere. In the United States, top-down rhetoric from political leaders and right-wing media targets immigrants, especially those from Latin America, and Muslims, often framing them as cultural threats or security risks. These narratives translate directly into policy: immigration enforcement that tears families apart, mass deportations, detention centers, and the 2017 “Muslim Ban” barring entry from several Muslim-majority countries. Training for the New York Police Department categorized the Keffiyah and watermelon as “antisemitic symbols.”

Jews, by contrast, are primarily targeted by racist individuals and small extremist groups on the far-right fringes, actors who operate largely outside of formal politics and hold little to no systemic power. While antisemitic rhetoric can and does surface in speeches or coded references to “globalists,” this remains qualitatively different from the institutional, top-down marginalization inflicted on Muslims, immigrants, and other minorities. Random social media influencers do not have the same structural reach as a government writing discrimination into law. For Jews, far-right hostility is mainly a matter of words; for others, it is a matter of law.

Jews do not suffer from police brutality, housing discrimination (redlining), employment bias, underfunded public services, wage gaps, mass incarceration, an unjust legal system, etc.

Modern antisemitism primarily exists as rhetorical criticism and occasional violent attacks like synagogue shootings. These incidents, while tragic, do not equate to systemic oppression. True antisemitism is a minor issue compared to the structural racism faced by Black people, Indigenous peoples, immigrants, Muslims, Palestinians, and other racial minorities and colonized peoples worldwide.

Some people point to FBI statistics that show Jewish people over-represented in religion-based hate crimes as evidence of widespread antisemitism and systemic oppression. But a few key things need to be clarified as this is not a strong argument for antisemitism supposedly being a rampant, pressing issue as it may seem.

First, religion-based hate crimes make up only about 20% of total reported hate crimes between 2020 and 2025. Race / ethnicity-based hate crimes make up over 55% of the total.

Second, this is just ‘reported’ hate crimes. Studies have shown that trust of the police differs significantly among different groups of people, with white people being far more likely than Black or Hispanic people to initiate contact with the police. Within the US, a staggering 92% of Jews identify as white; with a significant portion of the remainder still identifying as white and another race. Other religious minority groups largely belong to non-White demographics, hence they’re less likely to approach the police than White people.

It should be noted that this same FBI data also shows that there are more cases of Anti-White hate crime reported than Anti-Hispanic / Latino hate crime within the same period, which further proves that this data is heavily skewed and that white people are more comfortable engaging with law enforcement. It should also be noted that for Anti-Black and Anti-Hispanic / Latino hate crimes, assaults make up 34% and 53% of total reported crimes by type respectively, compared to only 10% for the reported Anti-Jewish hate crime incidents, with the vast majority being destruction / damage / vandalism of property and intimidation. In a document from November 2024, the explicitly Zionist WJC stated that “While not explicitly adopting the IHRA definition, the FBI classifies antisemitism under the broader category of bias-motivated hate crimes, aligning with the principles of the IHRA definition.”

Wow very scary and antisemitic right? 🤣
