— Eric K. WardHistorically, antisemitism has always operated through the mechanism of conflation. Jews are imagined not as individuals with political diversity but as a unified force responsible for global harm. Their differences disappear. Their internal dissent becomes irrelevant. They are treated not as citizens or communities but as a problem. The irony is that much of the left would immediately recognize this logic if applied elsewhere.
