The Jewish people and other minorities have been bullied all over the world, down through history, as have women. They’ve been intimidated by individuals, groups, corporations, schools, communities, and governments!
Recently, there has been an uptick of antisemitism from individuals, interest groups, certain celebrities, even government officials, such as Ilhan Omar and several others! They have also been attacked right here in America by Radical and Extremist Groups.
Understand that antisemitism, racism and sexism are all forms of bullying because there is a clear-cut power imbalance, and the evil committed against the Jewish people has been repetitious for so long!
People may not agree with me and may even get angry. But it is what it is, and I’m not going to hide it nor sugarcoat it.
Most bullies are bigots and racists because bullies are known to have hatred for anyone different from them in any way, although most of them would never admit it for fear of losing face. However, bullies must always have a target to degrade.
So, they prefer to bully someone safer to bully and not as legally protected, such as a person who’s on the autism spectrum, who’s mentally ill, a member of the LGBTQ community, or an older person.
Understand that bullies despise differences from them in any way and you can bet that most bullies are only closet racists and sexists, but because they choose to go the “lesser of two evils” route and be more politically correct to play it safe, they only bully those to whom they can do it and get away with it.
Understand that racism is wrong, no matter who it’s aimed at! Antisemitism is wrong! Hate is wrong!
Just because someone is different in race or skin color, in the religion they practice, or lives a different lifestyle, it gives no one the right to mistreat them!
Eliminate the hate!
Some history about the Jewish people being singled out and bullied.
During WWll a ship full of Jewish people landed on the shores of America to avoid what was happening in Europe.
Customs made the ship go back to Germany. It is reported that all of the Jewish people ended up in concentration camps and died.
It’s awful and shameful! And now, we have certain members of Congress and their followers making antisemitic statements. People like that shouldn’t even be a dog catcher!
I totally agree Cherie!
As the saying that I have been hearing over these past couple years, “the fish rots from the head down”.
Yes ma’am!
Cherie, here is the link of one site about the ocean liner. It is also on Wikipedia.

Thank you so much! I’ll definitely check this out!
Btw, I never knew about the ship. I guess people kept it quiet. And when people cover that up, that means THEY KNOW they were wrong.
And now American History, World History, etc are being taken out of school curriculums. Its like the powers that be want us to forget about events in history, like the holocaust!
And we have the deniers!
Shame!!!
I believe if I remember correctly the year was 1939.
I will look it up and give you the link.
During that time the government had a battle, to get involved or just like now be an isolationist
