Not at all, Sweden during the ABBA age was completely nuts. There was no cap on taxes, and as such, you could incur a more than 100% marginal tax rate.
Astrid Lindgren (the beloved childrens book writer) was amongst those affected.
The Islamist Ayatollah regime in Iran won't be missed when it crumbles under its own brutality. It and its lackeys oppresses women and pretty much every conceivable minority they can reach.
Do not kill, or through intentional action cause physical harm to another human being, except in defence.
Every human has the right to their own body, thoughts and words, upon which nothing except the above law shall infringe.
Where it does not conflict with previous laws, respect physical property of the public and other individuals - it is not to be destroyed, taken or abused without permission of its holder(s).
You're assuming that an antisemite would be thinking rationally. jew-hatred doesn't tend to be based in rational thinking. Rather it is a basic expression of spite and vitriol. Being "pro-palestine" at the same time gives a convenient excuse to act out and a mass of people to hide amongst, emboldening the ones who otherwise wouldn't dare.
In any case, I hope that's enough to answer your original question.
I don’t understand what kind of “peril” any random Jewish person might be faced with.
Are you jewish? Even if not, feel free to come here and just walk around a few days openly wearing any commonly known symbol of jewish ethnicity, culture or religion. After that, you will understand, if you aren't stuck in a hospital bed, or worse.
As for the protests, not even that is necessary, even innocent bystanders (i.e not counter-protestors) have been hurt by activists (not that violence, IMO, is justified in general).
I avoid peril by taking precautions, suppressing that part of my identity, making it invisible to the public eye. The same way that my women classmates at university avoid peril by not being alone at night in certain parts of our city.
This is anecdotal, but anti-israel/pro-palestine actions near where I live have caused peril for people in general and jews in particular. They're often arranged near synagogues and other places relevant to jewish diaspora communities.
I can go into more detail if you want, but hence the relevance for jews living outside of Israel.
If my commute to work for instance were to intersect with such a demonstration I'd do my best to plan another route, for my own safety.
I suspect that the OP is referring to pro-hamas and pro-hezbollah actions at the protest. Since both are terror organizations who not only have genocidal goals against jews and christian arabs, but also actively harm and oppress arabs in Israel, Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon.
Now that devices are starting to have built in features with AI automatically combing through all information on them, the idea of this sort of stuff being logged in the first place is concerning.
For instance, should someone prompting an AI to describe them beating up and torturing their boss be flagged for "potentially violent tendencies"? Who decides the "limit" where "privacy" no longer applies and stuff should be flagged, logged and sent off to authorities?
As I see it, the real issue is people being hurt, not text or fictive materials, however sickening they might be.
If the resources invested in spying on people and making databases were instead directed towards funding robust and publicly available psychiatric care I expect that'd be more efficient.
Krita is nice overall, but I have some minor gripes with certain tools behaving unintuitively. May just be because I'm used to GIMP, but some simple stuff such as cropping a layer is not at all convenient.
There is an armed conflict (usually described with the word war) between Hezbollah and Israel, which has been ongoing and escalating since October 8th, when the prior launched attacks against Israel in support of the Hamas attack on October 7th.
Hezbollah is conducting its warfare from territories considered part of Lebanon, but de facto militarily controlled by Hezbollah.
Israels declared intent is to fight Hezbollah, not Lebanon. As Hezbollah is not a sovereign nation, no declaration of war is necessary. (If the concept of an undeclared war is confusing to any reader, they should read up on it, most wars since WW2 have been undeclared)
The withdrawal of the Lebanese military where the IDF operates further indicates that this is not a conflict between Lebanon and Israel.
Long story short, this is a war in Lebanon between Israel and Hezbollah where Israeli forces are invading.
Yeah it'd be a similar reaction if Jasmine & Aladdin were recast as northern Europeans. Sure it's a fantasy tale, but the story is set in a fantasy version of Arabia.
I fundamentally dislike censorship and limitations of open communication. It's a similar situation to X in Brazil, where the gov:t claimed they were "threatening national security".
It's certainly interesting to read about the contrast between how Haiti & the Dominican Republic developed during the time period - particularly since both were in a similarly empoverished state at the middle of the 20th century.
Marginalization is not universal or absolute. You can easily have people who are marginalized in some contexts, and privileged in others.
An easy example is religion.
A christian in Spain is probably considered part of the majority and privileged, meanwhile, that same person could be subject to intense persecution in a country like Saudi Arabia because of the same beliefs.
The same can be applied to this child being bullied by their racist peers.
Peace and stability, however, destroy terror groups.
Which is precisely why Hamas escalated the Israeli-Palestine conflict last October. They were afraid that Israeli efforts towards fostering peace and cooperation with the other Arab countries were being successful.
Peace will be impossible to accomplish until the Middle-East at large accepts the existence of Israel, and Hamas have in turn proven that is impossible as long as militant islamist extremists with the primary goal of killing as many Israelis as possible (as opposed to securing safety, prosperity and freedom for Palestinians) rule in either of the two Palestinian territories.
