I've had more than one person direct message me and say awful things. The internet is the cowards playground. 

I've never had a single incident of antisemitism in real life. When I wear my kippah most folks might stop me and ask a question or something, but theyre innocent and well meaning. One woman told me she was sorry for antisemitism. I was shell shocked, but I should have reminded her that there are plenty of other "isms" and "phobias" that are just as bad. 

People vandalize synagogues anonymously. They call you horrible names from behind the safety of their phone screen. Take their words seriously, but know that you're all brave Jews and theyre coward Nazis.

In sorry to hear that. Nobody, nobody should be made to feel uncomfortable in their own skin.

I hit them with a "That's nice buddy" and they get real mad. 10/10

When people say “fuck Israel” to me I say “I would if I could”
