Say WHAT?! You KNOW that post is wack, homie!
If this Outremont situation had anything to do with the Hasidim trying to impose practices on the community then this would have some merit. But it's about school buses. And even if she didn't realize the implications of wearing a yellow badge while protesting a Jewish community, she's still lovely for continuing to wear it.

Given what's happened with the Hasidic community in places like East Ramapo and Williamsburg in the States, I think it's safe to err on the side of their being more to the story than "NIMBY's overreact to school buses."

I mean this excerpt from the article points in that direction, and the article is pretty light on details about what is being protested:

quote:

Outremont’s Hasidic Jews use school buses to transport their children and members of the community to school and around the neighbourhood.

Chartre and a handful of other residents have been complaining for years the vehicles block the streets and are a nuisance because they run in the summer and during what she says are odd hours during the day and evening.

“On just one residential, one-way street, there are 14 buses in one hour!” she said. “That’s not reasonable.”

quote:

“(The Jews) always bring up their painful past,” she said. “They do it to muzzle us. "
That is the sort of thing a lovely person says. You can complain about buses without being anti-Semitic. Like, this would be a local issue if they hadn't worn the badges.

:geno: Yes, it's like a lava lamp.

That is a pretty common tactic though. See Israel labelling any criticism of it as antisemitism.

I mean some Jewish people are like that though. How dare you talk about anyone besides the Jews on Remembrance Day or with regards to the Holocaust is a sentiment I've run into multiple times, despite it figuring pretty strongly into trans history and so on.

How is that antisemitic when the article quotes Jewish people invoking the holocaust and the diaspora in relation to people complaining about their community buses clogging the streets?

They're invoking the Holocaust because the people are wearing yellow badges. Like, this isn't that complicated. The Outremont Hasidic community was historically made up mostly of Holocaust survivors, I think they're allowed to decide if they think something evokes Holocaust imagery or not

A lot of complaints I see from Bnai Brith and the rest these days are basically along the lines of "how dare Jewish people be treated like other religious groups and not given preeminent placement" which is really privileged. I'm not denying anti-Semitism, but there looks to be a sort of place of privilege they feel they are owed in post-war society as part of Western nations trying to recover from the Holocaust. There's a very specific narrative of atrocity and reconciliation that Jewish groups comfortably enshrined in Western culture, and questioning that is not allowed.

Yeah there's 3 totally separate issues getting mixed in.
-Is there an unreasonable amount of traffic from the buses, illegal stopping/parking, blocking traffic significantly and so on? This is totally a traffic and enforcement issue.
-Would the locals be this upset if it was just some random new school and not hasidic jews and is their opposition and tactics partially rooted in that?
-How much tolerance do neighborhoods and societies in general need to give extremist religious groups? Specially ones with extremely lovely track records of moving into neighbourhoods and forcing, sometimes violently, their lovely values onto everyone else.

Honestly, there's just one issue here that made it newsworthy, which is the badges. Every other thing is just local bullshit. But they decided to be tone deaf and wear yellow badges and then refuse to admit there were bad implications to it.

Specifically, I'm dubious that the hard/alt right has been:

- finally deplatformed
