In my City, it was not a Nazi who followed the Jewish girl home and shot at her. It was a protester. In new York it's not Nazis accosting Jews on the streets it's people carrying pro Palestine flags.
I don't see Nazis marching in rallys with signs saying 'clean the world of Jews ' which is an age old Antisemitic trope out of the Elder's of Zion. Those are supporters of Palestine. Chanting gas the Jews in Sydney was done in a crowd of Palestine supporters.
I'm not saying Nazis aren't a problem at all. I'm pointing out they're part of the problem and the bigoted sentiments clearly being exhibited by the supporters of Palestine is also a part of it and that absolutely needs to be discussed. If you believe what you've written that Antisemitism is a growing problem, then I'd ask you to start looking at the people around you and how they're displaying their messages. You don't have to look far to see the hate.
