You’re couldn’t be more wrong if you think it’s a mere spat, a family thing. The difference between these Jews is a profoundly deep philosophical schism as if thy were both on separate sides of the Grand Canyon. The NYT Jews are Jews genealogically certainly not religiously not even culturally.
No, culturally (spiritually! in their hearts and minds and bodies and money and thoughts and lives!) today’s New York, Philly, Washington and inner city Miami and retired Jews are SOCIALISTS with a family and genealogical tradition going to the pogroms and collectivism (and power at times) of the Russian Empire going back to Constantinople and the Roman diaspora. (Loss of the Temple.)
They are socialists to the core, and even the street signs and markers in New York City “adore” and honor the communist newspapers and writers of 1880-1925, the communists in the USSR and their “labor” and anti-capitalist supports 1925-2015.
Today’s liberal “jews” have no religion. The conservative branches? Absolutely. But the 90% who are secular liberals? Nothing.
