I've always found it amusing that the people who are fine with marchers screaming "Jews will not replace us!" are so quick to accuse other people of anti-Semitism!
Go ahead, tell us all what you really think will happen to all those Jews in Israel when the eschaton is finally immanentized!
I was merely reminding everyone that the people screaming about anti-Semitism, whether to browbeat universities for tolerating peaceful protestors or to insult people who criticize Israel's actions (people often saying nothing that some Israeli Knesset members haven't also said) are the same people who say scripture requires the Jews accept Jesus or be annihilated whenever the "second coming" arrives.Using apocalyptic rhetoric is often a tell, when someone resorts to predicting doom, it can be a sign they don’t actually have any practical solutions to offer. It’s easier to scare people with visions of the end than to engage with the messy, complicated work of real-world problem-solving. So, maybe before preaching about inevitable catastrophes, it’s worth asking: what’s the plan "if" the world keeps spinning tomorrow?
Personally, I don't believe in any of this religious claptrap. I'll go with Christopher Hitchens: Religion poisons everything.
