“Masada syndrome”
It isn’t 1950. New York is now less than 10% Jewish, and there just as many muslims. NYC is 36% foreign born. 30% White, 30% Hispanic, 20% Black, 15% Asian. Blaming the Jews for NY today is ignorant or anti-semitic or a mix of the two.
Oh Noes! The thread enforcer is calling Aunty Semitic!
The article refers to “Wealthiest” voters in NY.
In 1965, that still included a fair number of Episcopalians.
But John Lindsay and his fellow WASPs...you know, The Americans?...are gone from the city their ancestors started and built.
So ya know who that leaves as “The Wealthiest”?
Hint: it ain’t Oyrish Catholics. Or Calabresian Mafiosi.
