<p>Comedian <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/bill-maher" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bill Maher</a> sparred with actress Sandra Bernhard over the rise of anti-Semitism in America — and where it comes from — during a recent episode of Maher&#8217;s &#8220;Club Random&#8221; podcast.</p>
<p>Bernhard, who is Jewish, said that she did not feel oppressed in any way — and then argued that if there was a problem with anti-semitism in America, it was certainly coming only from the far-Right.</p>
<p>Maher immediately rebutted her claims.</p>

<p>&#8220;No, it doesn&#8217;t&#8221; <a href="https://t.co/f18V0X8cFL">pic.twitter.com/f18V0X8cFL</a></p>

<p>Bernhard began with a bit of her own history, noting that her grandparents had fled a pogrom in Russia to come to the United States. But then she pivoted to the Hamas terror attacks on Israel last October 7, and claimed that since then, people around her had &#8220;suddenly&#8221; embraced their Judaism.</p>
<p>&#8220;I like being Jewish. I go to Shabbat, I do my thing. But everybody’s suddenly like, &#8216;I’m Jewish, and I’m being [persecuted].&#8217; I don’t feel persecuted,&#8221;  Bernhard explained.</p>
<p>Maher pushed back, saying, &#8220;There is an antisemitism afoot in this country which we haven’t had in a very long time.&#8221;</p>

<p>Acknowledging it was possible, Bernhard immediately blamed the far right: &#8220;I tell you where it comes from, it comes from the right-wing, the extreme—&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;No, it doesn&#8217;t,&#8221; Maher interrupted. &#8220;The right-wing has the ‘Jews will not replace us’ nonsense. The left-wing is even worse.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;What? How so?&#8221; Bernhard asked.</p>
<p>&#8220;That is coming down from elite colleges who see everything only through a racial lens. They are stupid. They don’t know history. They think everything is about colonizers and racists, and how awful America is,&#8221; Maher explained. &#8220;And America has done some bad things, but to drag Israel into this as the stand-in for every bad thing white people ever did — this is not any more complicated to most of these college kids than the Palestinians are brown and poor and the Israelis are rich and white.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;None of this jives with the facts,&#8221; he concluded.</p>
