"In January 1826, the state of #Maryland passed the so-called “ #Jew Bill.” The 200th anniversary of the bill being enacted into law was last week. The Maryland state legislature will hold an event in February, during the annual legislative session, to commemorate the 1826 #law.

Prior to 1826, only members of #Christian #religions were eligible to hold office in Maryland. In fact, there was a clause in the oath of office that elected officials were required to take that affirmed their belief in #Christianity.

The formal title of the bill was “An act to extend to the sect of people professing the #Jewish religion the same rights and privileges enjoyed by Christians.”

This bill was proposed and resisted for years before it was finally passed in 1826."

"I was walking home from a #Shabbat morning service, wearing a #kippah and carrying my #tallit bag in my urbane, diverse #NewJersey town, when a pickup truck slowed down beside me. The driver rolled down his window and yelled something. I won’t repeat it here, but I can say with certainty it was not “ #ShabbatShalom.”

Why? Because of a small piece of fabric on my large, bald head.

My truck-driving antagonist was in good company. On social media, bigots will refer to #Jews as “the little hat people.”

"...During the 1968 #NewYorkCity school teachers’ strike, which aroused #antisemitism, an announcer on radio station WBAI-FM read a poem written by a school child, dedicated to #AlbertShanker, the Jewish head of the teachers’ union: “Hey, #Jew boy, with that #yarmulke on your head/You pale-faced Jew-boy, I wish you were dead.” Shanker, in fact, did not wear a yarmulke."

History will see #Brexit like this:

1. Stop people emigrating as of right
2. Stagnate the economy to build resentment
3. Start a racist party
4. Turn on our own citizens

I have no way out now. As a #Jew this is terrifying.

Do you know how fucking terrible a human has to be to make me root for that sack of shit Ben Shapiro? Pretty terrible.

" #Conservative commentator #CandaceOwens sharply criticized #BenShapiro in a recent #podcast episode, responding to his remarks at #TurningPointUSA’s #AmericaFest conference where he condemned her for spreading #conspiracytheories.

#Owens, in profane language, dismissed #Shapiro and referenced historical #antisemitic #tropes, including claims about the #Talmud and #Jewish involvement in the Atlantic #slavetrade. She held up a copy of “Der Talmudjude” (“The Talmud #Jew”), an 1871 book by #AugustRohling, a 19th-century #Catholic #priest whose work has been widely discredited as relying on mistranslations, selective quotations and fabrications to portray #Judaism as hostile toward non- #Jews."

The progressive activist lefty #synagogue in #Victoria#BC#Canada defaced with this:

“#Jews are evil! Because #genocide is evil! Stop genocide stop the Jews! Jews are murdering thousands of gentile children In the future #Palestinians will get their revenge against you child-killing #Jew-monsters!”

I've heard that little #antifascist joke about how many #nazis do you have at dinner for decades, and I don't want to hear it anymore.
