The antisemitic stereotype is that we’re sheep.

It’s not the 1930’s anymore. Nazis jihadis and communists all must know, we have a nation with a military that is unafraid to use it, and on a personal level,

Jews with ARs don’t wind up in boxcars.

The current anti-Semitic stereotype is that we are both evil monster terrors to the world but will also fold up and surrender at a little bit of violence against us.
