New York City Faces the Threat of an Antisemitic Mayor
[Hot Air] The surest way to trigger the collapse of New York City is to elect an antisemitic mayor.

Throughout history, rising antisemitism is a bellwether of societal ruin: When attacks on Jews are tolerated or encouraged, the dissolution of everyone's rights and the abandonment of basic freedoms follow.

See the Spanish Inquisition, Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union for examples.

It could happen here. Electing a Jew-hating mayor who turns a blind eye to antisemitic crime will drive out huge numbers of city residents -- including some of its wealthiest -- erode the real estate market, hollow out cultural institutions and lead to moral implosion.

Everyone who can leave, Jews and non-Jews alike, will flee.

Being Jewish in NYC is already getting uncomfortable.

We see swastikas scrawled on walls and desks in some public schools, students elsewhere casually referring to high performers in math as "the Jew table," a Queens community garden posting a ban on Zionists, a 13-year-old Jewish boy slapped in the face while riding his bike through his neighborhood -- such incidents are no longer shocking.
