A swastika was left on a wall of the Horwitz-Wasserman Holocaust Memorial Plaza in Philadelphia

A Holocaust memorial in Philadelphia has been vandalised with a swastika as acts of antisemitism continue to rise across the country.

The Horwitz-Wasserman Holocaust Memorial Plaza said in a post that earlier this weekend, an unidentified figure vandalised a wall of the plaza, drawing a large swastika.

The memorial’s post described it as “a disgusting act of antisemitism that comes amid a staggering spike in anti-Jewish hatred across Philadelphia and the country more broadly”.

While the swastika graffiti has been removed from the wall, according to NBC, the organisation is asking anyone who may have any information about the vandalism to contact the Philadelphia Police Department.

    I don’t care if you’re queer. I really don’t. Maybe you want me to, but it has not mattered to me one bit this entire time.

      I never tried to make you care. I was using that experience of becoming a monolith as a way to relate to you.

        Well I must say, using antisemitic stereotypes and repeatedly insisting I insulted you when I told you I did nothing of the sort is a really great way to relate to me. Great job there.

          You really need to look in a mirror more.

          You started this by lumping me into a group I’m not a part of, the thing you were complaining about. And I then just repeated it back at you, but with your character. If you don’t like it then don’t do it.
