Hate crimes in NYPD against Jews 50% more than against all other groups, COMBINED.

The New York Police Department has gotten better at updating their hate crimes dashboard. Here is a chart showing all the hate incidents reported by category for the first quarter this year.

What is it going to take for people to see that there is a real problem here - far worse than anti-Asian crimes, far worse than anti-Muslim crimes, far worse than anti-Black crimes, 50% more than all the other bias incidents combined?

There are lots of op-eds lately, written mostly by liberal Jews, decrying the Trump administration's threats and withholding funding from universities for not doing enough to fight antisemitism. These articles all say that Trump's moves will not help the issue, in fact they will make it worse for Jews.

Now, look at this chart:

What, exactly, have the Democrats done to stop antisemitism outside of writing long position papers? Antisemitism has gone up significantly, year over year, since Biden was elected President. So sorry if I am not impressed with the arguments that Trump is going to be bad for Jews. If you look at this data, it looks like Biden policies, or lack of them, did not do a single thing to make Jews feel safer.

I have no idea whether Trump's actions will make a difference or make things even worse. But we already are seeing universities responding to the Trump threats by taking strong moves to follow their own policies that have been all but ignored since October 2023. I bet that anti-Jewish activity on campus will be reduced significantly this year.

Is Trump is using antisemitism as an excuse to push his larger agenda? Maybe. But so do Democratic politicians, and no one seems too upset over that.

I don't think anyone in politics has seriously analyzed and defined antisemitism. Without a good analysis of what causes it, there can be no good solutions. But meanwhile, I see no evidence that anything Trump is doing is worse than anything the Democrats have done, and I think there is evidence that Trump's crude bull-in-a-China-shop methods are doing more than anything else I had seen.
