Ivy League college campuses are some of the most leftist places in the country. The pro-Hamas campus riots radicalized the next generation of leaders into supporting Islamic terrorism, they terrorized Jewish students and in the process, transformed their politics.
When the encampments went up on elite campuses, Jewish students abandoned the far left in droves. The share of Jewish Ivy League students who identify as “very liberal” on a 7-point ideology scale declined from 40% before the encampments to 13% after they appeared. The proportion of “strong Democrats” tanked from 37% to 14% while the Republican share rose from 12% to 18%. Ivy League Jews went from being well to the left of the median Ivy League student to leaning right of the average.
Speaking anecdotally, I’ve seen a political shift among young secular Jewish Ivy League professionals from knee-jerk liberalism to much less enthusiasm for the movement and more openness to Trump. They’re not about to become Republicans, but based on the FIRE surveys quoted here, they are moving away from the Left.
The drop in affinity for the Left is massive and portends a generational shift.
Far too many Jews instinctively felt that they had a natural home on the left. They no longer do.
“Far too many Jews instinctively felt that they had a natural home on the left. They no longer do.”
They never did. The left has always hated your tribe.
I don’t hate you people but you have to get used to the fact that most people do. It’s an irrational hatred but it is what it is. Lefties have always hated you.
Me personally, I can’t hate people based on their ethnicity. People are individuals, not blocks.
Antisemitism is a planetary disease. Apparently incurable.
I lived the majority of my life with no overt antisemitism then October 7, 2023 in Israel happened.
Instead of compassion for the slaughtered victims and their surviving families, it’s apparent antisemitism seethes in non-Jews – aka gentiles or goys – The 10-7-2023 wound to in my heart’s soul was not enough, and for those murdered and their surviving loved ones, they heaped more mounds of shit antisemitism that has become fashionable, vogue and hip.
The diaspora has not ended psychologically for Hebrew DNA folks with seething antisemitism.
For those who claim they are Born Again and call Lord Jesus Christ their Savior and Lord and are seething or overt antisemites are also saying they despise Yeshua Messiah because HE is Hebrew.
I call Jesus my Savior and Lord and ascribe to no practicing religion, I want no firewall between me and YHVH and my Savior and Lord.
Jesus took HIS Hebrew DNA with HIM and is coming back with the same.
How short sighted and lack of common sense critical thinking skills these antisemites are!
I boast I am thankful to be born in USA and I share the same genetic DNA as Lord Jesus Christ – on the human side – I have YHVH’s Holy Spirit for my eternal spiritual DNA.
Most of those October 7th victims were just kids. That’s totally fucked up.
It’s basic envy, we got there before them and did it all and they can’t stand it.
I don’t think most Americans hate Jews per se, but I do think many people, all over the world, are filled with envy and resentment of any group that is so highly successful that it boggles the mind as to how they do it. When that happens conspiracy theories abound.
It’s not just the Jews, it’s all highly successful minorities around the world. The highly successful Overseas Chinese have suffered more legal discrimination and pogroms in Asian countries than even the Jews have suffered in Europe. The American Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 came about from the envy and resentment of the whites because they could not compete against the harder working, thrifty, intelligent Chinese.
“What can Jews themselves do to stop antisemitism? Fail – because as long as you succeed, you’re going to be hated.” Thomas Sowell.
It’s our mindsets which China and Taiwan have, education, hard work. But we include family.
It’s how I failed repeatedly, ended up living in one of my vehicles a few times for short periods of time and now a self made millionaire a couple times over that provides homes for hard working people who cannot get conventional bank loans,
It was my shame of being on the outs.
Anyone can have these mindsets. YouTube is rife with videos of people making money, It’s easier now to make lots of money than ever before in human history.
One mindset is to become the eternal student with an eternity of infinite possibilities.
I had to sleep in my car for a couple weeks in my Church parking lot because my apartment building manager screwed up and delayed my move in date that long. I’d already vacated my previous residence. We later became friends but I sure hated her at first. Sleeping in my car was embarrassing but not so bad because it’s a Camry and has a big back seat. Taking showers was a problem but I figured out places to do it.
It can happen to anybody, brother. Except maybe President Trump and his family.
Chinks tend to be dumb….and smell bad. I’v’e been to China. HAVE YOU?
I speak of the OVERSEAS Chinese. For some cultural/tribal reason when the Chinese stay in China they flounder but when they immigrate they become high achievers.
The old Chinese proverb I think has the answer, any nail that stands out will be hammered down until equal to all the other nails. When the Chinese leave China they have more freedom to escape the collectivist/tribal restraints.
Yes, the smartest ones emigrate to the West. A lot of them are spies, though.
Also immigrants from all places tend to be self-selecting for youth, energy, ambition, and relative intelligence.
You mouth off to impress us. Unsuccessfully..
Suck my ass and choke on the nuggets.
I see we have ten turd munchers here.
I wish there was a way for you to set up a cash contribution to you in the comment section. If I contributed one dollar every time you posted something incredibly dumb, you’d be rich. Tell us about the relative achievements of Asian-Americans. Alternatively, you can respond with a predictable gay joke.
As for using all caps, TELL US WHY 10/4/20 WAS SUCH A SIGNIFICANT DAY FOR YOU.
Tell me why you suck dicks at glory holes.
Most people hate Jews? This from the guy who told us becoming POTUS isn’t an accomplishment but giving one of his girlfriends multiple orgasms is.
If schools were to seriously address multiculturalism, they would address why the Jewish people have been so demonstrably overrepresented in the higher professions and among Nobel Prize winners. I grew up in a town with relatively few Jewish people yet those few Jews were far more likely to be in the high school honors classes reserved for the top 10% of students. Cultures that emphasize the importance of education do better. Imagine that…
From what I’ve read the best theory I’ve found is that back around the year 300 the rabbis made it mandatory for Jewish parents to educate their boys to read, write, memorize, learn, and analyze the Torah.
Those Jews who could not afford to do so dropped out of Judaism and converted to some other religion. Those Jews who had no love of learning also did the same. This made the Jews a self-selecting group of individuals who loved learning and had natural intellect.
From then on, the Jews who were mostly illiterate farmers like the rest of the people from other nations and religions around them became literate and numerate while the people surrounding them remained illiterate farmers. The literate and numerate Jews left farming behind and went into the occupations requiring literacy and numeracy. The rest is history.
God helps those who help themselves.
And yet Jews are persecuted in universities and Hamas scum are allowed to riot publicly in big D-Bag cities and Ivy league universities..
You’re full of shit, as always. Mohammed.
Go eat a camel turd.
Woke Right often Qatar funded is just as bad or worse.
I don’t think there is a right. Lefties are definitely real but I haven’t noticed any people with diametrically opposite attitudes and beliefs.
Jew haters are definitely evil, though.
Do you mean rational self-interest and self-preservation has now trumped altruism and social justice in the American Jewish mind? Maybe temporarily at most. But like an addiction the Jews will go back to smoking social justice once the cancer scare is over.
“What America’s Jews passionately care about is “social justice.” In terms of helping the sick and the poor, social justice is deeply embedded in Judaism. The Industrial Revolution, which brought about a massive wealth generation, caused the plurality of Jews to broaden their vision of social justice to include economic equality.
However, the issue of economic equality eventually grew into an irrational obsession that ultimately led them to embrace socialism.
The Jewish love affair with socialism, which began in Russia with the fanaticism of the grandparents, has been transformed by the Great Terror into the fear of the parents and subsequently into the conviction of the children and grandchildren is embedded deeply in the Jewish DNA.” – Alexander G. Markovsky, “Even If Moses Endorsed Donald Trump, Jews Would Not Vote For Him”
Except that Jews DO support President Trump. All rational people do.
The more violent behavior from the Bolshevik, Antifa Scum Suckers the more the Jews will abandon ship and take to the lifeboats
April, 2024 I was on a phone call with the creator, writer, producer of the 1970’s “Kung Fu” television series regarding a book he wrote: “Spiritual Journey of Joseph L. Greenstein: The Mighty Atom” who changed up the conversation for a quick minute and said: “Because of the diaspora, Jews have lost our identity and keep voting for the wrong people”.
It was like a lightning bolt struck me and I became wide open to that reality, that truth.
I met Al Gore in 2020 and told him he was going to win the Presidency. He came across as a businessman. He lost and then said FU and took a side gig to give him unlimited access and wealth for his future generations. I was in Montreal on 9/11 and said to my friend, “This would not have happened if Al Gore was President”.
9/11 was in planning and training because of our corrupt DOJ agencies not sharing and acting on intel.
I guess the same with Israel 10-7-2023.
The GOP never had a decent candidate until Donald Trump stepped up in 2015. And what they have done to President Trump and anyone associated with him for over 10 years is the same globalist machinations with treasonous culprits that are being antifa and these ivy league universities.
These young Jewish students learning the hard way are learning this in USA not nazzi Germany.
Post Israel 10-7-2023 antisemitism has become fashionable, vogue and hip.
These new antisemites cross racial barriers which makes them think they are not discriminating and they are not racist.
Frankly, if the students involved in these antisemitic racism are in a university, how stupid and short sighted with no critical thinking common sense skills.
What will it take to change their views and 180 pivot?
So these Jewish students are growing up quick and that is producing the opposite effect than those behind these anti-Jewish violence, the demoncraps, the liberals that are the skid marks in satan’s underwear who are losing the Jewish vote and for that I say: Mazel Tov –
In my 7th decade I still look for the day when we are throwing Mazel Tovs not Molotov’s.
I can’t hate somebody because of their race or their faith. But I definitely hate anyone who supports the left with their votes or dollars.
Judaism is a great and proud religion, and deserves respect. But as long as Jews are giving the lion’s share of their money and votes to the Democrats, and fanatically opposing immigration restrictions, they will invite the enmity of even those Americans who support Israel and are disgusted with the Dems’ anti-Semitism.
My take from this is that Jews are extremely slow to catch on and amongst the most braindead of anyone on the left, and that’s saying something. In fact, they might be even dumber than the “gays for Palestine” crowd. I have to cut them a little slack, though, because a Jewish friend (who is now a MAGA guy) once told me that being far left for a Jew is like breathing, you are born into it, surrounded by it, and it is as normal as the sun rising and setting and unthinkable not to be.
Libtards call the republicans anti-semites to keep the jews on their plantation of Egypt. Get out of Egypt.
