This is one of the more important and disturbing pieces I have written about American politics. Gift link: theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…





When you accuse every single famous person spreading Jew hatred of being a paid agent of a foreign power, you’re essentially dismissing the role of radicalization. You’re suggesting that their antisemitism is transactional, that it can be bought, and that once the money disappears, so will the hatred and conspiracies they promote. But people can be radicalized for free. It happens all the time, and fame and influence do not spare people from it. And while sometimes the shift appears sudden on the surface, you don’t know what’s been simmering in that person’s mind.
