There's a religious element to that as well, it just can't be ignored. Notice a significant number of anti-Israel posters here have Latin usernames. There is a portion of Catholics that hate that Israel exists because they believe they have replaced Israel and the existence of an Israeli state is an affront to their beliefs, and in a way, to God. That is why they have sympathy for Islam in the region, because they both agree on that point.
Yeah, I'm not really discussing those who have always hated Israel and Jews in America long before these past few years. I have no tolerance for any kind of racism or bigotry, full stop.
I'm talking about the younger generations, who are more and more secular than religious in their views. They haven't been raised to hate Jews or Israel. The only reason they're hating Israel is because of what they're seeing happening every day on social media.
Which is exactly the problem. They are being fed outrage porn by grifters who are only doing it for views, so their only exposure to what's happening is carefully curated to generate the most reaction. This is why my point of their views changing when they grow up and join the real world holds.
