Remember the Jewish students who parked a truck outside the demonstrators' site, and it displayed the video of what Hamas did to the Israelis on Oct 7?
Rep Ihan Omar (D-Hamas) berates the chancellor of UCLA for allowing the video to be played because it was disturbing.

A mindset of ignorance. Nothing to do with hatred of winners.
Everything to do with visceral
antisemitic racism to the very core.Large numbers of young American jews are in her tribe, so you might want to look elsewhere for your explanation.

Not good enough a reason to look elsewhere. Besides, that woman is only nominally American and not the least bit Jewish.
She's not that young, either. She is aligned with the ideology of the pro-palestine protestors. Their demographics are what I'm talking about.

Actually the pro Hamas protesters are aligned with a vanguardist ideology that masquerades as enlightenment. A Pied Piper or, if you like, a Charles Manson. That woman on the other hand, is wholly aligned with fanaticism and all it entails.
Big difference.

You rebutted my comment about the "hatred of winners" being a root cause of the student protests, so that's what I was discussing.
Here's a young Jewish lady who captures the attitude I'm referring to. She was a Biden appointee who has recently resigned due to his support for Israel's "genocide" in Gaza. Shockingly, she went to Berkeley. She is clear that from her perspective, anti-semitism is enabled and enhanced by the "genocide". She also has the requisite negative things to say about the right side of the political spectrum in general, specifically Trump. It's all a bundle, and anti-semitism has little to do with it. Nothing, in her case.
I think it's an extremely low cognitive bar for someone not to hate people just because of some genetic phenotype, like skin color or ethnicity. The vast majority of people are programmed adequately to overcome that bar, at least. Certainly the vast majority of students at these institutions. Their hatreds lie in opposing ideologies and world views. I consider oppressor/oppressed and winner/loser to be essentially synonymous, in that I think economic winners, from individuals to societies, will inevitably be considered oppressors by these people.

Lily Greenberg certainly fits the demographic profile you describe. Others would just write her off as a self loathing Jew. I have no opinion either way. To me she and her ilk are really not far removed from Manson cultists in that they have no clue what they actually believe. They just act as they are told to act.
As you pointed out my reference is that Omar woman. Islamist fanatic.
