Ok. I was refwrring to https://www.adl.org/resources/tools-to-track-hate/heat-map which is different and includes a lot of not-actually-antisemitic incidents.
The point about the NYPD reporting does not really answer the question of whether these are antisemitic attacks or not. Are the crimes against Zionists or against Jews? This is an essential distinction. If antizionist Jews are being targeted by the far right for being Jewish then it's a hate crime. But if Zionists are being targeted for being Zionists by people opposed to the genocide then it's not a hate crime even if they are also Jewish.
I'd be shocked if the NYPD made that distinction or provided that crucial data, but the absence of it doesn't make it less crucial to have. I hate that I even have to question this but Zionists have weaponized claims of antisemitism so much in covering for their genocidal aspirations that scrutiny is required.
Yeah, zionists have muddied the waters on this deliberately. Zionists blame Zohran directly for the rise in hate crime because he's called out the genocide. Those groups are disappointed with this anti-semitism task force because it's not pro-Israel.
I have not been able to find a complete list of crimes by the NYPD., they only have a dashboard that doesn't go into detail. The incidents they highlight in news reports include things like stabbings and public threats ofremoved and murder that seem serious. You don't have to be a zionist to object to swastika graffiti, or people being stabbed.
Of course I object to hakenkreutz graffiti. That should be addressed as a general far right problem that threatens all minorities the way so many of us been organizing against the far right for over a decade now.
Violence is a morally neutral tool and at this point my feelings toward it honestly depends on who's being stabbed. 6 year old Palestinian boy stabbed for being Palestinian? Absolutely I object to his murder. Antizionist jewish comrades? Of course I object to violence against them. Zionists? idgaf
. "Every city every place, punch a nazi in the face" applies to zionists too, if people actually oppose genocidal fascism.
I really can't take the claims of "antisemitism" in new york stuff seriously given how much islamenhasse there is which the government has never taken seriously, not even now under a Muslim mayor. Mamdani, by centering "antisemitism", is playing into Zionist hands by acting like judenhass is a special form of bigotry against a special minority group that is uniquely hated, uniquely vulnerable, uniquely persecuted, uniquely genocided, which is one of the points Zionists use to whip Jews into a frenzy of paranoia and fear internationally. Is increasing funding to combat antisemitism by 800% really going to flip racist zionists who pretend to think Zohran's the next Hitler over to loving him? Is it going to make them feel safe? Or is it just going to reinforce their persecution complex by showing "look, we're so persecuted that we need all this protection and also look, even all this extra spending hasn't made us safe so we truly are the most persecuted group!"?
