Hebrew media touts "antisemitic incidents" quite a bit recently, most of them being ordinary anti-genocide rallies/protests/sayings. So I'm not talking about these, obviously.

I do wanna talk about the rest of them: vandalism, physical or verbal attacks directed towards Jews that regard merely their religion/ethnicity and not their views of the genocide.

Have you or your first circle experienced more hostility since Oct 7th? How often do people assume you're a Zionist after they find out you're Jewish, and does it happen more often now?

I kinda hope to hear it's all overblown ๐Ÿฅด ื—ื’ ืฉืžื—!

There has always been antisemitism. Especially from the far right. But now that protesting for Palestine goes against the western narrative, our governments suddenly care about it. The whole 'antisemitism is on the rise' is nothing but a smoke screen to target pro Palestinian voices. Otherwise antisemitism would have been taken much more seriously for the last few years or even decades. There is no 'sudden increase' as much as there is a reason to lable anything remotely going against the status quo as antisemitism. All the while actual antisemitism gets downplayed as 'freedom of speech'.

English : One good deed will bring another good deed, one transgression will bring another transgression.

โ€“ Pirkei Avot 4:2

Update : I'm taking down and banning anyone who makes "conversion to judaism" posts , on this community , I'm completely against conversion and proselytism of non-jews in this community , The traditional rabbinic view ( that is also my view as well ) , dating back to Talmudic times, discourages accepting non-jews into judaism ,

Rabbi Helbo ;

โ€œืงืฉื™ื ื’ืจื™ื ืœื™ืฉืจืืœ ื›ืกืคื—ืชโ€

English ; โ€œ"Converts" are as hard to the Jewish people as a leprous scab on the skinโ€

The Rambam ( Rabbi Moshe Ben Maimon ) ;

ื•ืื ืœื ื ืžืฆื ืœื”ื ืขื™ืœื”, ืžื•ื“ื™ืขื™ืŸ ืื•ืชืŸ ื›ื•ื‘ื“ ืขื•ืœโ€œ ื”ืชื•ืจื”, ื•ื˜ื•ืจื— ืฉื™ืฉ ื‘ืขืฉื™ื™ืชื” ืขืœ ืขืžื™ ื”ืืจืฆื•ืช, ื›ื“ื™ ืฉื™ืคืจื•ืฉื•.โ€

English ; โ€œAnd if no justification is found for them, the burden of the Torah Ha-Qudesha is made known to them, and the effort involved in its observance is emphasized to the common people, so that they may refrain.โ€

Again , if some person or individual makes a post about "conversion" , it will be removed and the person or individual will be banned from this community ( from The Jewish Community of Lemmygrad ) .
