'The nytimes never misses an opportunity to complain about Jews — especially Orthodox Jews.' -Jack_Elbaum
The New York Times never misses an opportunity to complain about Jews — especially Orthodox Jews. In recent memory, the paper of record whitewashed the 1991 pogrom in Crown Heights and even suggested it is reasonable to think Orthodox Jews are going to inadvertently poison water wells, giving neighbors polio.
The New York Times laments the representation of Orthodox Jews on the council, writing that “A majority of the advisers are Orthodox and only a quarter are women, drawing criticism from Jewish leaders including Representative Jerrold Nadler of New York.” But the most recent numbers show that upwards of 40% of Jewish New Yorkers are Orthodox. And Rabbi Dovid Bashevkin rightly points out that maybe, just maybe, the reason there are so many Orthodox Jews on the council — even to the point of overrepresentation — is that they are disproportionately the victims of violent antisemitism in New York City.
So if Orthodox Jews are “over-represented” to help regain control of their image it’s because for far too long their over-representation was in instances of antisemitism. pic.twitter.com/UiP8YFhVPJAfter all, combating antisemitism is one of the reasons the council was created.
