It dawned on me slowly last year after October 7, how many on the right believed it was perfectly acceptable to hate the Jews. I thought it was fringe, but it’s not. I am angry about it. Angry, I guess, that they would allow themselves to be so easily deceived. I know I shouldn’t be so shocked, but there it is.

Thank you for a beautiful essay and a practical application of an essential concept of thinking and acting for others than ourselves. It does take practice to keep those muscles in shape.

That was a fantastic column Barry. You consistently take me on a path that encourages me to think for myself, to do the right thing, and to live the kind of life I know I’m supposed to live. Surrounding myself with people like yourself and Bari Weiss gives me great hope. Thank you so much for what you do.
