Jonathan Greenblatt has the moral courage of the Uvalde police department, the values of Stephen Miller and the same conception of American Jews as Netanyahu. He does not represent American Jews.

The profile I read on him was fascinating. Paints the picture of someone who identified what he viewed as an existential threat in domestic criticism of Israel and decisively threw out his org's entire mission/integrity in order to adapt to it. It was an absolutely cynical move.
aug 18, 2025, 10:38 pm • 7 0 • view
Whether that move would be good for the Jewish community is open to debate (I think it's terrible) but it's kind of obvious the calculation from the get-go was to back an American dictatorship with the expectation that doing so would protect Jewish interests. He's hardly alone in that kind of move.

If you're going to make this kind of attack it really makes sense to get the most basic facts right. I know that he's been organizing meetings w NYC Jews who are concerned/worried whatever word you want to use. in other words, meetings with Jewish voters who are generally progressive ...

Some things are actually simple. The ADL is allying itself with the worst Christian Zionist antisemites in the US and claiming that progressives and/or Muslims (and progressive Muslims) are the real threat to American Jews. This tactic, often referred to as “lying,” is considered by many to be bad

Or if you live in the city and see the flyers and things being said about him (like I do), you’d also think he’s got no chance of persuading some folks.

It was indeed bizarre. The whole tweet was noting that Greenblatt is so sloppy he got elementary facts wrong and Mamdani is quietly doing very genuine outreach (the kind JG says he's not doing) and even when the polls suggest he actually doesn't even need to.

I genuinely think Mamdani takes these concerns seriously even if they’ve been weaponized by bad faith actors. I find it especially disconcerting when people like Greenblatt assume bad intentions from those like Mamdani who have made a genuine effort. This isn’t a Corbyn situation.
aug 18, 2025, 10:30 pm • 49 2 • view
And it's to their own detriment, because if the ADL et al refuse to make a distinction between Mamdani and Corbyn then there's a lot less standing in the way of nominating more Corbyns because they're going to be treated the same regardless
aug 18, 2025, 10:33 pm • 1 0 • view
I agree with that. I’m just perplexed he’d be so sloppy. He managed to create a good press story for ZM. Campaign loves goofs like these. It also speaks well of ZM that he sees that there’s a slice of the community that is skeptical but not haters. Those people are worth having a dialogue with.
aug 18, 2025, 10:36 pm • 32 2 • view
As I said in another thread I think this speaks well of him also because polls suggest he doesn’t really need to do it. He’s running away with the race. That said, getting elected is often the easy part and every poll needs every friend he can get
aug 18, 2025, 10:37 pm • 49 4 • view
yeah that's the part that makes me optimistic about him as mayor, he seems to understand the need for coalition-building on a deep level and is working very hard to set up a base to get things done after the election
aug 18, 2025, 10:40 pm • 78 5 • view
It’s so obvious the media is going to cover ZM unbelievably unfairly, he’s smart to work on growing his popularity and support as much as possible before he is Mayor and NYT et all excoriate him
aug 18, 2025, 10:45 pm • 5 0 • view
That’s really key. To really get anything done you need a very broad coalition. And he’ll have powerful interests arrayed against him. And outside of an election cycle those interests get more powerful
aug 18, 2025, 10:44 pm • 48 2 • view
BTW he IS running away with it. I’m astonished that in my neighborhood in Brooklyn there is not one Cuomo window sign (nor Adams) Mamdani’s stuff is in many windows and in those of upscale houses! And this is why real estate developers, billionaires, etc are going to scream. yell and smear him.

The credibility is completely gone and won't return. Weaponizing antisemitism for ulterior motives makes people resentful and makes it hard to take accusations seriously. They lost credibility when he caped for Elon after the Nazi salute.
