I agree with your comment and many of the above, overall it seems counterintuitive to non-Jews for Jews to be for any things, people, practices non-Jews think they “logically” should be against and vice versa. Why stridently support immigrants with such a large percent that cant and won’t tolerate living with the rest of us, with particular animus for Jews? Because you feel that you support them seeing them as persecuted as you once were but by and large you don’t live work or mix with them so you are inoculated from their hatred? Or that their seething is justified? Why cite religious freedom and patriotism in pushing that immigration on everyone while spearheading efforts to strike religious expression and patriotism from all public places, except for what the intolerant new immigrants believe? Why contradict the Judeo-Christian Commandment to not kill, with forethought , then forcefully en bloc be for abortion? Perhaps consciously or unconsciously considering the Talmudic concept that a child is not a child until outside the womb?

If it’s all just to create a new order to eliminate the (formerly) prejudiced Christians’ mores as societally predominant because it can be done through legal means, I could at least rationalize the motivation while not agreeing one bit. I just can’t reconcile tyranny of the minority via the justice system with democracy.

Most people don't have such long range goals. They see a tug of war and don't want the other side to win, so they start pulling for the side that will do them less harm.

Small politically active elites have big visions of change, but most people just don't want the other side to win. That goes for Jews and gentiles and everybody else.

There are also time lags in politics. Jews (and others) wanted changes in the immigration laws back in 1965 because they saw their relatives as the ones excluded back in the '20s and kept out through the '30s.

Does that attitude to immigration apply to today? To some extent it does, because Jews are still thinking about Hitler and the Thirties and feeling excluded -- and not really focused on the present situation.

But Jewish attitudes may be changing, and because it takes time for the story to get out, it may take a while for observers to see the change.
