Algorithms Target Diaspora Jews

The article argues that social‑media algorithms and influencer ecosystems have turned criticism of Israel into a public‑facing campaign that disproportionately identifies and targets diaspora Jews, making online amplification a practical vector for real‑world attacks. It links specific recent incidents (synagogue bombs, arrests, street assaults) with viral online campaigns and equivocal responses from prominent accounts. — If algorithms materially increase exposure and legitimation of antisemitic messaging, that shifts the platform‑policy, policing, and free‑speech debates toward managing targeted ethnic harms rather than abstract content moderation alone.
