Guess it's important to reiterate that millions of left, liberal, and progressive American Jews do not consider themselves/ourselves to be represented by the ADL and have not for a very long time.

What were we expecting from Jonathan Greenblatt, who has been more busy defending Israel's political agenda than defending people of Jewish confession victim of abuses, and also praising Musk after his takeover of Twitter, even though antisemitism is rampant since he did?
Dear Sarah, I hate Zionism more than you can imagine. One of the reasons why, though not as important as the atrocities in Palestine, is that I'm one of those people with a drop of Jewish blood that they claim as their own. I'll never belong to them. They'll never represent me.
So hate all you like.
I remember when the ADL stood up for the rights of all minorities, not even just Jewish people. I think there must have been something bad happening behind the scenes to them.
It got to a point for many people that you'll be called antisemitic if you call out the ADL or AIPAC for the crap they actively pull
They were necessary at one time for sure, but they are shadows of what they were and now like many groups only want to keep power rather than their original missions
Oh? I have heard others say something similar. " a true Nazi salute looks like ...." To me that is like saying you should be held responsible for shooting someone because you were aiming for their head but got their leg"
So true. And yet, to see one of the world's most reactive allegedly "pro" Jewish organizations in the USA go full willing executioner at the tip of a...salute... is still unnerving.

I hate what the ADL is right now. Do not for one second think that makes me hate people like you any less.
