I blame the popularization of identity politics by the media and academia. When the concept of racial privilege is shoved in everyone's face and people are made to think in racial terms, some people are bound to notice there's a certain class of white people that holds more privilege than others (according to standards set by modern social justice). Racists seemed a lot less common before the 2010's.I find the few posts in this thread to be absolutely jarring. In the great before time, the vast majority of Kiwis were thoroughly philosemitic. Oh, how THAT greatly changed in the subsequent years.
I think most Kiwis are philosemitic, but there's definitely a growing antisemitic sentiment in certain social spheres.
It's possible they're not voicing their real opinion. After all, we know intelligence agencies are manufacturing fake boogeymen. Articles about groups like O9A and the Boogaloo boys glowing in the dark were posted on KF at some point but the search function doesn't seem to work right now.That said, you definitely have a fair share of kooky ones.
Sometimes culture and ethnic background plays a part in the rotten behavior. Jewish supremacists who disrespect others because they consider themselves the master race are a thing, for instance.I don't blame the culture nor the ethnic background of someone on the account of their rotten behavior. It's no different to me

Things only get dumb when someone insists every Jew is like that.
