The Golden Age of American Jews Is Ending
Anti-Semitism on the right and the left threatens to bring to a close an unprecedented period of safety and prosperity for Jewish Americans—and demolish the liberal order they helped establish.
The end of the golden era for Jews

I didn’t make up the title. It’s a serious piece. I encourage everyone to read it. Exceptionally long. Over an hour to listen to it. Longer to read. I suggest the read.
I’ve gotten a different response from everyone I know that read it. That’s what I find so interesting.
Curious if there’s a thought about it here.
Ok. I did change the title a bit. Throw in the word America.

Ok. I’ll tell you the responses I’ve received from others.
- it’s a an admission of crimes
- No wonder October 7th happened
- these poor people never catch a break
- how can they write this and not understand why they’re so hated.
My view was Wow, it’s a great story of perseverance and achievement but it also became one of arrogance.
In Maui, it’s considered extremely low class to buy a property and make it better. Why? Because the culture is to leave it the way it is plus making a property better, raises prices which raises taxes. That pisses them off extremely.
When a class of people have done well for themselves, it’s natural to want to payback the good blessings. But it’s in the act of payback where the intent was good but the results were bad. It starts to be seen as “meddling” like race quotas on college admissions.
In my own experiences, when I’ve achieved something I worked for, I always reach back to the one behind me that’s working for the same goal. More than half, slap my hand away. Finally, I quit reaching back. I wait to be asked.
Maybe that’s the micro version of a larger dynamic that has absolutely nothing to do with religion.

Hard to disagree with the article - except honestly, I never thought Trump was Anti-jewish. It was more like he attracted people that were.
With the way things are shaping up on the left, Jews might need to figure out a way to influence the republicans to distance themselves from the anti-Jew crowd. Things are going to get nasty for them from the Democrats.

There’s a new paradigm taking place according to the author after the very realization you pointed out. Just no idea what it will/could be.
