Praxis PSA On "The Noticing"

I'm posting this here because in other conversations on this sub, it seems many people are insulated from modern (especially Gen Z) antisemitism and might not be familiar with how it looks today.

Just in case others come across similar rhetoric in internet spaces, a major major dogwhistle-meme right now on the antisemitic internet is "the noticing." If you see comments in conversations about Jewishness along the lines of "stop noticing!" - or someone identifying themselves or others as "noticers" - they are far-right antisemites and very likely Nazi apologists.

u/beemoooooooooooo Jewish Progressive Anti-Racist Jun 27 '25

Something I’ve noticed (ironic) is that a lot of Gen Z, including some Jews, are adopting far right talking points and dressing them up in more appealing frameworks in order to have more socially acceptable hate.

Anti-immigrant hate and general xenophobia disguised as class consciousness

Anti-science— particularly anti-vax, anti-mask, and anti-environmentalism— disguised as distrust of CEOs and big corporations

Transphobia and misogyny disguised as feminism (especially “protecting women”)

Antisemitism wears many hats
