"Analysts increasingly describe modern #antisemitism as a convergence phenomenon — where far-left anti-#Zionism, far-right #conspiracy culture, #online #radicalization and broader political nihilism begin feeding one another. #Jews become symbolic targets onto which fractured societies project anger and distrust. As #JoshKaplan recently reminded us in The Free Press, the late #Rabbi Lord #JonathanSacks warned that “antisemitism is a projection, and is caused not by Jews but by internal conflicts in the societies that give rise to it.” That diagnosis feels painfully relevant now.

#America is experiencing a broader coarsening of civic life. Political rage has become performative. #Socialmedia rewards outrage over restraint. #Conspiracytheories spread faster than facts. Institutions are distrusted almost by default. In such an environment, antisemitism flourishes because it offers unstable movements a visible villain onto whom complex frustrations can be pinned."

Ein auch persönlicher Leitstern für die Analyse aller Formen des religiösen & politischen #Extremismus als „pathologischer #Dualismus“ ist & bleibt für mich Chief Rabbi #JonathanSacks , UK 🇬🇧🕎. Er gehört m.E. zu den großen Religionsgelehrten, deren Werke über #Generationen hinweg wirken. Mir brachte er u.a. die Verabschiedung von den politikwissenschaftlichen #Hufeisen - Theorien. Kann allen, ob selbst religiös oder nicht, „Not in God‘s Name“ empfehlen! 🙏📚🌈 https://scilogs.spektrum.de/natur-des-glaubens/gewalttaetig-sind-nicht-nur-die-anderen-post-dualistische-weisheit-von-lord-rabbi-jonathan-sacks-1948-2022

@BlumeEvolution @exiltoaster

Ich halte mich hier ja normalerweise zurück um dein Theorie-Gebäude zu kritisieren, aber so langsam wird #JonathanSacks einfach von der #Realität überholt.

Wenn wir #Liberale als #Libertäre "dämonisieren", dann weil sie Libertäre geworden sind & auf ihre liberalen Wurzeln spucken.

Für die anderen Themen gilt das ähnlich.

Rabbi Jonathan Sacks writes that Judaism is, perhaps uniquely, a civilisation all of whose canonical texts are anthologies of arguments.

@ana_krchdrfr Danke. Die #Hufeisentheorie entsprach m.E. starken Interessen, kann es aber mit der empirischen Erklärungskraft der #Dualismustheorie von #JonathanSacks nicht aufnehmen: https://scilogs.spektrum.de/natur-des-glaubens/freund-feind-dualismus-statt-rinks-lechts-hufeisen-theorie-eine-wuerdigung-von-rabbi-sacks-sel-ang/
