NEW YORK MAGAZINE HAS BECOME AN ANTI-JEWISH HATE OUTLET
New York Magazine’s new Habibi City issue might seem like it is simply celebrating MENA/SWANA culture, but it’s part of a larger pattern that treats Zionism as a form of hate, labels Jewish connections to the Middle East as “complicated,” and presents the Jewish state through the language of colonialism, apartheid, and genocide.
This is a pattern of subtle demonization that has been building since October 7.
This comes at a time when antisemitic attacks in New York City are at record levels.
In 2025, NYC recorded 324 anti-Jewish hate crimes and just 26 anti-Muslim hate crimes.
Anti-Jewish incidents alone accounted for roughly 57.7 percent of all hate crimes recorded by the NYPD.
The pattern has continued in 2026.
Jews have already been targeted in 178 hate crimes, compared with 21 anti-Muslim hate crimes. That is nearly 8.5 times as many antisemitic attacks.
New York Magazine is contributing to this rise by fomenting anti-Jewish hate.

Actress Hannah Waddingham recently sat down for an interview with Hollywood Reporter’s David Caspi, where they talked about Noa Kirel’s stunning performance at Eurovision.
Waddingham hosted the competition in 2023 when Noa represented Israel, and the story comes full circle when Kaspi reveals that Noa is now married to football star Daniel Peretz, a fitting connection for Waddingham, who famously plays football club owner Rebecca Welton on Ted Lasso.

Shameful, but sadly not surprising, that @RollingStone would give Hasan Piker this kind of platform.
This is someone who said “America deserved 9/11,” has repeatedly expressed support for U.S.-designated terrorist groups including Hamas and Hezbollah, and has been condemned for rhetoric denigrating Jews, including referring to Orthodox Jews as “inbred.”
But Rolling Stone has been here before.
In 1970, it put cult leader and convicted murderer Charles Manson on its cover.
In 2013, it put Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev on its cover in a presentation so controversial that major retailers refused to carry the issue.
Apparently, giving extremists the rock-star treatment is a Rolling Stone tradition.
Thank you @davidmdraiman for calling out Rolling Stone.

At a time when Israeli filmmakers face growing efforts to shut them out of international cultural spaces, Avi Nesher’s “Our Loves” is heading to the Toronto International Film Festival.
The Hebrew-language film, centered on seven lives intertwined during the October 7 massacre, arrives at one of the world’s most prestigious festivals despite what its producers describe as an unofficial boycott of Israeli cinema.
Israeli stories deserve to be seen, heard, and given a place on the global stage.

There is something especially grotesque about portraying Israelis dancing at a music festival as evidence of “war crimes.”
Before October 7, Israel’s electronic music scene was one of the few places in the Middle East where Jews, Muslims, Christians, Arabs, and artists from across the region came together. The Nova Music Festival reflected that same spirit.
Turning music, friendship, and coexistence into that Israelis are subhuman is not journalism, its just pure propaganda aimed to dehumanize Jews.

Boy George’s “We Will Dance Again” Song Removed from Bandcamp, as the site doesn’t allow songs created with AI, which George admittedly used for the song.
@boygeorgeofficial’s song was written in solidarity with the victims and survivors of the Nova Music Festival massacre. It has been removed from Bandcamp, along with his artist page.
The removal though has only strengthened his resolve. Boy George has vowed to release the song independently and is encouraging everyone who already downloaded it to keep sharing it.
