Yea I don't think its intentional. perhaps boycott is a strong language for now.

The way to get it moving is media attention.

Curious if anyone clicked on anti-jewish search. Looks like historical items that is likely being bought by jews.

its mostly old newspapers describing historical anti semitic attacks not promoting anti jewish items

Exactly. I think everyone needs to chill. Sometimes it’s just not good to cry wolf

Exactly.

If you told me it was promoting mein kampf and swasitkas it would be a somewhat different story.

As is, it's just an algorith doing it's job and showing relevant results that aren't anti-jewish at all in fact.
