All fair, and I think Ezra Klein put it best on of his recent podcasts, but there's a unique loneliness that the liberal Jew is now experiencing post 10/7, and it's being felt most acutely in places like higher ed. These are Jews who were at the forefront of every progressive cause, including calls to oust Likud and end incursions of settlements, and are now experiencing venomous antisemitism from the very same people whom they previously locked arms with.
I think that pain needs to acknowledged a lot better by people on the left, and democrats are in the best position to do so. Which is why it's little more than rank incompetence that they've let Elise Stefanik take that mantle right out from under them. The moral high ground for persecuted Jews has been ceded to a woman who advocates for the Great Replacement Theory and likely has a browser history littered with her theories on the various ills George Soros has inflicted on America.
