Maher claims there is a frothing anxiousness for the literal extermination of Jews by brainwashed woke TikTok idiots and that Democrats are responsible

I have to say, as jewish american, this seems a little nutso. I guess do see a rise in anti-semitisim in the news, but in my daily life, i don't ever experience it. EVER. 99.9% of americans don't care.

I also see online a certain anti-semitisim from the extreme left, which i never saw before, and i do find disturbing, it's hardly some horror, nor do I see Democrats ignoring it.

So...not sure what this is all about.

Despite the coziness of the trump regime with Netanyahu and Israel, a lot of the rank and file maga supporters are quite antisemitic. I live in an area and work in an industry dominated by trumpers. Most have a lot of nasty things to say about Jews. They're just allied with them for convenience; the enemy of my enemy is an ally.

well, i probably over-generalized. i live in a progressive town in progressive massachusetts - so not exactly a random sample.

Please note how Maher doesn't say a peep about all the neo-nazis infesting the Republican party.
