this adl data -- which we have been doing this kinds of polling -- since the 1960s.t of context on a lot of experience. and indeed, in a world in which our leaders are normalizing antisemitism, whether from the right or from the left, blaming the jewish people or the jewish state, they normalize troops like globalists, the idea that jews control the banks and wall street and whatnot. it has become part of the political conversation -- you have number one, politicians weaponizing -- number two, extremists feel emboldened. they can make wild claims, again, about zionists or globalists. these are euphemisms for jews. and literally, they are running for office on such wild charges. and then, thirdly, social media is a superspreader of stereotypes. what we are seeing on facebook and twitter and fake tiktok would make your head spin. so, taken together, whether it's the extreme right demonizing the jewish people, the radical left humanizing demonizing the jewish -- have reached an all time a high. we have tracking that for almost 45 years. we have never seen the kind of nu
