The topic of Jews has always been on the fringes of the internet (this board among them), and dismissed wholesale by just about anyone outside of said circles. That is how things worked for the longest time, basically since the birth of the internet as a whole. That changed, very noticeably, very abruptly, and very obviously, after Israel's counter-invasion of Palestine in the aftermath of the October 7th, 2023 attacks by Hamas.
Since then, something has shifted in the wider internet (and maybe wider society, but that could just be wishful thinking), and I can't place my finger on how or why this has happened. Has it been building up over time? Did it blow up all at once? What other factors are involved? I don't know.
Here are a couple recent examples to see what I mean;
-
Mark Dice, say what you want about him, is someone I've kept an eye off and on for many years. I would usually place him closer to milquetoast than not (not as bad as, say, Tim Pool the Dim Fool, but just enough to want to keep his channel). However, he went full blown Noticing(TM) in his most recent video, to my complete surprise. He even admits at the end of the video that he thinks he's "flying too close to the sun" (because YouTube), so it's safe to say that he knows.

Info Wars (and by extension, Alex Jones) has always been willing to broach into many a subject, but has always been rather mum on this particular topic, minus low hanging fruit such as the USS Liberty (the possible reasons why are for another discussion). That is, until a few days ago, when a video + article was put out on Zionism, a pro-Jewish ideology. For all I know, its contents could be total BS, but the fact they address it at all is to be noted.
Of course, we are now seeing the US Government revealing their true loyalties once and for all (i.e. not to the American people, but to the nation state of Israel) in response to these shifts in discussion surrounding <pulls out a gallon of Minute Maid> the juice, and it is currently attempting to make "antisemitism" a federal crime based on an extremely broad definition, that can best be summarized as "rules, ethics, and accountability are for goyim".
Let me know your thoughts.
I think the reaction to years of forced multiculturalism is a huge part of it. This whole DEI religion and diversity push for the last 8-14 years is rubbing everyone the wrong way, but most NPCs aren't able to put their finger on it.
Now we've got this massive propaganda push, right in everyone's faces that Israel has a right to exist! You're supposed to take that at face value, but those words obviously mean more than what is being said. It means, the world needs to fight for Israel to get to be an Israel-first ethnostate, not multicultural. They get to foist all their 'multicultural' onto everyone else. That goes against all of the heavy-handed activism we've been bombarded with. Everyone thinking, black or white, asian or latin, 'Why can't we have that too?'
Israel gets special treatement, and we gotta pay for it? Not just that they get to fuck with all of their neighbors and we gotta run to their defence? Like that old cartoon with the two dogs Spike and... the little yappy one. The little dog is always picking fights Spike has to back up. All those evil buzzwords, colonialism, fascist, xenophobia, Israel is all of that. So it's breaking leftist solidarity with the establishment.
10/7 killed 'woke'. That illusion propaganda doesn't work so well anymore. Everyone got to see that there is an even higher rank of special privilege, beyond oppressed/minority and brown/queer.
