Philly DSA claims backlash to Jewish business boycott is ‘repression’

Philadelphia’s branch of the Democratic Socialists of America is claiming that the anti-Israel movement is being repressed because of the backlash against another group’s Sunday boycott of Jewish-owned businesses in the City of Brotherly Love. The DSA group doubled down on the poorly planned boycott , which was held on the eve of the Kristallnacht Nazi night of terror, claiming the outrage against Sunday’s effort was unwarranted and belittled the boycotters’ message. “From the Senator Fetterman and Congressman Boyle to Governor Shapiro, Mayor Parker, and Council President Johnson, politicians have joined a chorus of bad-faith and dangerous conflation of antisemitism with anti-Zionism and invoking comparisons of the Kristallnacht that trivialize trauma and suppress political speech,” the group said in a statement. Philadelphia’s branch of the Democratic Socialists of America condemned the backlash against its boycott of Jewish-owned businesses in the city. phillydsa.org Philly ‘Kristallnacht’ protests at Jewish-owned businesses drowned out, shouted down by huge crowds A protester on a bicycle rides past shops in Philly’s ritzy Rittenhouse Square.

On a gray morning in Center City, the elevators at the Comcast towers still moved with their usual hush, but the talk on the sidewalks had shifted.
