Hi Fadi! I am listening to the episode that you are on right now. You are such a wonderful person and I wonder if you have a “Yiddish neshama (Jewish soul)”! 😆 I do want to share something that comes up often when there are guests who say “I don’t understand it” when trying to wrap their heads around antisemitism and the drive behind it, and even as a driving force itself (it can be used to motivate, galvanize, unite, etc. etc). One thing I have learned post-10/7 is that it works much like an addiction. It’s hard for people to give it up. They would often rather be in denial, or turn on you, than give it up. I bet if you did a brain scan of someone engaging in antisemitic activities, or consuming antisemitic media (and this probably goes for any hateful ideology that can be experienced as compelling or something to bond over with others) there’d be the same kind of brain activity going on as with the consumption of/engagement with any kind of addictive substance/behavior. Just a thought. Thank you for all you are doing; you’re an angel!!! Hope your family remains safe and that your cold got better :)
