Why Are So Many Young People Anti-Semitic ?

[Khandro]

There has been the greatest incidence of anti-Semitism in Britain since records began over the past two weeks, and, judging by the louts caught on camera, it’s not prejudiced pensioners smashing kosher restaurant windows, vandalising schools and writing ‘COLONISER’ over posters of murdered toddlers. We’re usually told that this group of young people are less prejudiced than any other, so some might think it a bit of a shock that a recent poll on anti-Semitic attitudes – measured by asking 11 questions about Jewish stereotypes and seeing if people agree with them – found the disease most prevalent in the 18-34 age group (13 per cent) and least from the over-50s (8 per cent).

  In the past, the younger generation always craved more freedom, but this one wants less. That’s why it supports the policing of language (when the Labour party promise two years in jail for ‘misgendering’, it knows the age group most likely to vote for it) and the persecution and cancelling of those with rebellious views. In 2019, a survey conducted by the Hanbury Strategy for the centre-right think tank Onward claimed that two thirds of 25-34s would prefer a ‘strongman leader’ who does not ‘have to bother with parliament’. The same poll described London as ‘the most authoritarian part of the country’ because of its ‘younger and ethnically diverse population’. Under-35s across the country were described as ‘considerably more authoritarian than older generations’. How weird it would be if the demographic who have spent the last few years screaming that everybody they don’t like is literally Hitler turned out to be quite keen on Hitler. Literally. ?

oz //Or is that just your blinkered view?//

 

Did you somehow miss the 50 or so thousand, young people demonstrating in London 2 days ago?

When 'tolerance' in action is intolerance, the world becomes frighteningly Orwellian.

Young people are generally finding their way in the world. They're often keen to be part of some 'club'. They're impressionable and malleable. As has been said before, they will probably grow up in a few years due to the normal responsibilities of job/mortgage/family.

but still be antisemitic, because thats how theyve been programmed and brainwashed by the mainly leftie woke MSM and elsewhere

You'd have to show me some proof of that for me to even start accepting it.

The problem here is one that happens every time the media get involved.

All news is geared around one item and they search out things relating to that.  The reality is that most young people have not been asked and have not voiced an opinion one way or another, so we really dont know if anything has got worse or better.

oh here we go a "show me the proof merchant"

just look around you on the news all the demos, past and present, where do you think the overwhelming majority of these mainly jump on any bandwagon lefties get their views from, conjured up out of thin air ?

[Khandro]

Thousands of those demonstrating were not just 'of the left' they were Muslim immigrants of the left.

Europe & the UK has over the past years allowed millions of them in all dedicated to hating Jews (& Christians too for that matter).

'oh here we go a "show me the proof merchant" '

yeah, I'm a bit funny like that, you know, wanting people to actually prove where they get their half-arsed opinions from🙄

I already made the point that they're (young people)impressionable and want to be part of some 'club' (call it jumping on the bandwagon, if you like).

Awww, gawd, Khandro has turned it into an immigration issue. Again.

"Things fall apart; the center cannot hold; / Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, / The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere / The ceremony of innocence is drowned; / The best lack all conviction, while the worst / Are full of passionate intensity."
