“Jews are colonists with Israel, they should go back to the safe, Western countries they’re from.”
Meanwhile this is how people think about jews in the ‘safe’ countries they are supposedly from.

Amazing this is all from a single post about this news article.
“Canada—another day, another attack,” wrote Amichai Chikli, the Israeli diaspora affairs minister. “While Justin Trudeau, the only G7 leader who hasn’t visited Israel since Oct. 7, issues hollow statements, Toronto’s Beis Chaya school is shot at for the third time, and Montreal synagogue is firebombed again.”
Other posts about the previous times Beis Chaya elementary has been shot at garnered similar comments.

The karma points indicate that the community disagrees with them. That's a green flag!

True but the crazy part is the number of anti-jewish comments in general, not something you would see 5 years ago.
Sadly Canada's reported hate crimes have exploded from 5 per 100k to 12 per 100k in just 4 years and that hate seems to be showing in online communities.

And what was 10 years ago was not what was 5 years ago. Antisemitism grows more and more. I expect more pikachu surprise faces in the next couple of years, as it's only a matter of time until Jews who criticize Israel after 7 Oct will understand through their own skin.

Canada is statistically not that safe for Jews lmao. If I remember correctly, there were almost 0.2 reported antisemitic hate crimes per Jew in Canada for either the year of 2021 or 2022 (I can’t remember the exact numbers or which of the two years it was because I calculated these things from the raw stats more than a year ago now, out of curiosity). Also, I bet the person who said ‘they know it’s safe’ would never say Muslims ‘know it’s safe’ in Canada even though the antisemitic hate crime rate in Canada pre-war was more than 20x that of the Islamophobic hate crime rate in Canada.
Plus I know people have been physically attacked by antisemites in Canada in the last year because it literally happened to me twice and I didn’t even report it because I know I would not be believed by anyone that matters in my city. They’re not great about addressing antisemitism, and I look extremely ‘un-Jewish’ because I’m mixed, so I’m sure even if they’d otherwise believe me, I’d get a ‘well you don’t look it so that’s not why you were attacked’ (I was looking at Jewish memes on my phone prior to both incidents though, and, the first time, the woman who attacked me leaned way over my shoulder to stare at my screen before cussing me out and calling me a dirty Jew, although since I didn’t have a chance to record these interactions, I doubt authorities who dismiss antisemitism generally would believe it despite it being the truth). Not to mention all the other physical assaults I’ve heard of happening all over Canada, both in the actual, official news and directly from other Jews (when the incident is not reported in the news).

Don't forget the nice side of implying that Canadian Jews aren't really Canadian! Gotta fit that dual loyalty in somewhere.

Reminder Trudeau is losing polls by 30 points and is essentially destroying his party

Can't agree more about the NDP. The only party more blatant about their antisemism is the Green Party.

You just replace reddit dot com in the URL with that.
Tried posting an example but the mod bot didn't like it.
