There’s a difference between criticizing a government and treating Jewish identity like a political contamination.
A lot of Jews have noticed the shift. The pause after we introduce ourselves. The social calculations. The need to prove we’re “one of the good ones.” The way “Zionist” is sometimes used less as a belief and more as a social warning label.
People keep insisting this moment is different from the past. Many of us are noticing how familiar it feels.
