Look, I will never deny that antisemitism is a big part of what's going on in the world right now - but also, there is a huge cultural issue of people not wanting to be uncomfortable.

THAT shift in culture changed a LOT about what we do/don't teach in schools.
I guess I'm not done with this thread. This also applies to what we talk about in general. Generations were taught that some subjects were too divisive or private- which naturally makes it easier to cover up or ignore.

Antisemitism is one of many issues that got this treatment.
And naturally, white supremacists have exploited this. It's absolutely unforgiveable.

BUT, I think that much like diversity - you have to undo the behavior of "being polite" entirely. Not just topic by topic.
