It looks like you shared some AMP links. These should load faster, but AMP is controversial because of concerns over privacy and the Open Web.
Maybe check out the canonical pages instead:

Wow.. this is so f'd up...
Hopefully the one kid who survived can confirm this and get these "parents" arrested and in jail where they belong.

Google it... ("it's all about the benjamins" "getting a calming feeling about the holocaust"..) and I'm sure you've heard about jewish space lasers at the other end of the political aisle. The point is can we for once not politicize something? This isn't a party politics issue.

It's not just antisemitism too.. so much hate going around for other minorities and folks in the LGBTQA community as well. I don't believe it's a swelling of ranks in hateful people, rather they feel more emboldened to act out.

Lols, they did nothing to disparage the Israeli citizens. They criticized the state.

No not inherently. It’s about how you criticize them. Criticism from a factual basis is not for the most part unless you’re using facts but leaving key information out on purpose as a way push forward antisemitic ideas. If you’re wondering why your statement is antisemitic and not a valid criticism I would definitely recommend looking into how long people who are antisemitic have been accusing the Jewish community of being some sort of “propaganda machine” and what effects that has had.

I didn't pay more than $3.49 a gallon for heating oil this winter.
Right on on those qualified to speak lol. Most of that "end of world" talk came right before November lol.

What did Talib and Omar say or do that was antisemitic? I know they publicly decried the state of Israel, but am not aware of. Anything explicitly anti-Jewish from them.

Nobody said that this winter would be cold, in fact everyone (those qualified to speak on the subject) said quite the opposite. Oil prices did skyrocket, considering it went from ~$3/gal to almost $6.

Head just south of Middletown to Durham! there's a loop I do to clear my head that takes me around by Lyman orchards, south through Durham main st and then take a left on higganum rd after the Dari serv. It brings you out at higganum. Then I just take 154 up back towards Middletown. It's gotta be really dark at night so take care.
If you want longer drives I also like going south on 77 or 79 out of Durham.

If the cops can't do their jobs they shouldn't get paid. No one is entitled to an easy job, especially when they get a full pension after 20 and have power of life and death over free citizens.

Discrimination is wrong - living in a big society does however come with the challenge of having some extreme viewpoints that are going to be lingering around. To put it into perspective, if there were 68 incidents (and let's assume each incident was 5 unique perpetrators) then once every 5 days 0.0094% of the population of CT decided to discriminate against a Jewish person, objectively bad but not alarming imo. Fund education!

are you saying it’s anti-semetic to criticize the ADL??

Do you understand why what you said is antisemitic? Or are you parroting someone else’s words without understanding them?

The most common criticism is that ADL equates Palestinian sympathy or anything critical of Israel’s government as anti-semitism. On their own website they patronizingly explain how “free Palenstine” is offensive and anti-Semitic. Historically, they also are disingenuous about their “rising anti-semitism” updates. But in OP’s post they stick to actual incident quantity instead of results from surveys with leading questions, so that’s an improvement.
Other criticisms include participation in CIA and FBI psyops and intelligence gathering operations but I won’t get into that.
All this doesn’t change the fact that anti-semitism is on the rise, and it is scary.
ADL deserves criticism and skepticism. Other people hate the ADL because they’re antisemites. And of course some people like to conflate ADL criticism with anti-sematism which is dumb.
