Bad ideas never die

Social Media influencers on the racist right said us Jews control radio and TV That we rot the roots of morality’s tree, The implication is clear; there’s no society free. One TV personality invited a guy who spouted reasons for Hitler's views As the real deal, I wonder why So much dumping on the Jews They talk of the 'noticing' - a kind of right wing 'woke' where folks wake up to Jewish control They take advantage of a center that's broke Old ideas corrupt a bewildered soul. Some shout that we’re pushing everything gay, Yet many gays march against Israel today. On campuses now, free speech has its price— Debate is forbidden; it just isn't nice. Even China got into that social media bed plus it helps Iran, the Houthis, lots more could be said In Brooklyn, some blacks punch Jews in the head In America, some Jewish blood spilt and ran red Yes, it’s true we have fools, that cross red lines, Who chase after causes that darken our times. But most of us build, most of us mend— Confuse friend and foe, and you hasten the end. Bad ideas never die Let's stand firm against the lie.
