Brilliant overall except the cheap comparison between the antisemitism of the right and that of the left. The latter type has been, for decades now, far more virulent and dangerous than the former, first in the communist block run by Soviet Union then in Western Europe and now more and more in US. They may be both disgusting but not comparable in their present effect.

But even by many in these comments is the fallacy of equivalence. тАЬ Yes the left is bad but the right is awful.тАЭ ItтАЩs almost like people canтАЩt look at anything objectively anymore. Or maybe itтАЩs mostly democrats who are appalled at what their party has become but canтАЩt bring themselves to let it go so they have to throw in but Trump or but the GOP to make themselves feel better about continuing to vote for a really despicable bunch of people.
And IтАЩm curious - have Schumer, Nadler, wasserman Shultz, Frankel, Deutch, and that profile in courage against Trump, Adam Schiff spoken out at all about these hate crimes?
Agree although Bari does address the distinction in her book "how to fight Anti-Semitism" . She actually if I recall stated that the Anti-Semitism on the left is more insidious but good catch on your part relative to the article.
