From JCRC: On Wednesday, May 8, protestors attacked attendees of a private event hosted by Jewish author and educator Debbie Lechtman (Roots Metals) in Oakland. The event, hosted on Holocaust Remembrance Day, was a talk on antisemitism, and was not focused on Israel. Attendees allege they were followed, called “disgusting Jewish pigs” and were hit with glass bottles filled with fake blood leading to cuts, head injuries and clothing stains. Targeting anyone because of their identity is wrong. The mob-style intimidation tactics displayed by these protestors is a stark reminder of the pervasive and insidious nature of hate and antisemitism. The event organizers have informed the Oakland Police Department and FBI, and an incident report has been filed. We are disgusted by these vile and antisemitic actions. Violence and intimidation have no place in our community. We are deeply concerned agitators are turning their attention to intimidate and harass our Jewish community. We cannot let threats and mob rule overcome our ability to gather and convene as a community.

What can we do to help Jewish people be safe?  
(genuine question from a non-Jew) (posted August 16, 2023) (first time I’ve heard of this happening) (i’m so so sorry) (i want to help y’all) (no one should have to endure this) 
Because I'm only seeing other Jews posting about this, non-Jews I need you to be aware that for the past month or two there has been a wave of bomb threats and swattings at synagogues all across the US. They usually do it when services are being livestreamed. I haven't seen a single non-Jew talking about this. High holidays are coming up in a few weeks, which is when most attacks happen against our communities. We're worried, and we need people to know what's happening to us.

Every time something else happens, every time some cool people I enjoyed (Dropout) join the pitchforks and condemn Jews for having ties with Israel, every time the word "zionist" is used like a swear word (like USSR did, do they fucking understand whom they follow) without knowing what it means, every time they demand boycotting anything that has to do with Israel...
Every time it happens, I feel the stronger and stronger wish to get into Judaism, to get in touch with my roots, to wear a Magen David, to host Jewish holidays. I don't think I will ever become actually religious, but I start to feel this warm feeling of love towards everything Jewish, that nothing can kill in me.
If I survived my Orthodox Christian grandma saying "if I wasn't Jewish, I would probably be antisemitic", I will definitely survive famous people saying shit. And my Jewishness will become stronger despite of that and kind of because of that.

I find it ironic that western leftists demand israelis leave israel because we're all white colonizers in their eyes (regardless of the fact that even if jews really weren't indigenous to the levant, which we are, over half the population is middle eastern anyway), but when we do leave israel for other countries we get hatecrimed. it would be bad enough if we had people telling us "good on you for going back to where you came from" or some shit but no they really just view us as inherently irredeemable and evil no matter where we are. almost feels like they're trying to lure us into being harassed overseas.

i find it really astonishing how much americans project their own social issues on the war, on gaza and on israel.
why is it though? is it the need to feel seen? is it the desperate desire to feel like a part of something? is it the worry that their suffering will be forgotten or pushed aside? is it a fear of not being taken seriously if it not relevant to them? because you can protest and object to things even if they aren’t directly relevant to you, it’s fine.
the thing is that i can honestly promise one thing:
this isn’t about you.✨

Can we all just give a round of applause to all the Jewish lawyers and lawyer adjacent types who donate their time and expertise to argue discrimination cases? Especially as a Jewish college student, it means a lot that there are Jewish professionals out there who are looking out for us.

Elon supporters: Elon Musk is not a Nazi!!
Also Elon Musk talking to the German Nazi party and telling them to not think about the crimes of the holocaust anymore, there's no need to think about the past:
