Democrat group accused of anti-Semitism for mocking names of Jewish NY pols

NYPost:
A liberal Democratic activist group is being accused of anti-Semitism for mocking the names of two Jewish politicians — House candidate Dan Goldman and state Assemblyman Jeffrey Dinowitz.

“The jerk buying a House seat with inherited money is ‘Goldman’ … the IDC-adjacent Assembly member is ‘DINOwitz.’ Who came up with these names, Dickens?” a member of No IDC NY wrote in a since-deleted tweet on Saturday.

The left-wing group was formed to defeat former members of the Independent Democratic Conference in the state Senate, who had a partnership with Republicans that helped keep the GOP in power.

The IDC disbanded in 2018 when Democrats won the majority in the Senate, and most members of the conference lost in primaries to more progressive Democrats.

The blowback to No IDC NY’s tweet was swift, with prominent Democrats accusing the group of dabbling in anti-Semitism, including by trotting out a trope involving money and power.

“A tweet dripping with Antisemitism,” tweeted Bronx Congressman Ritchie Torres. “The normalization of Antisemitism is a sign of how poisonous our politics has become.” more

  1. Alright… for those what cain’t MAFs:

    The Bolsheviks are accusing The Bolsheviks of Anti-Semitism, because it motivates the Judeo-Christian Commoonist hating Conservatives to vote for The Bolsheviks listed by the Bolsheviks next to the “Anti-Semitic” Bolsheviks. In Jesus name!

    And brag about it.
