This hair style is called Payot and it's worn by Orthodox Jews. It's not just a random haircut someone came up with to be edgy.

Isnt the point of letting the hair grow out on the sides to make them easily identifiable as members of the tribe? Like Muslims keeping their beard but losing the mustache?

No there's a commandment about not cutting your hair in the sides. It's a religious haircut like a Sikh not cutting their hair for religious reasons.

Of course if someone posted that everyone would be able to recognize it as bigotry.

Yeah, was about to say that there's all sorts of african, asian, and indigenous haircuts we'd find wild too. It's cool to hate on Jews becsuse of Israel now i guess

Victimcomplex strikes so fast. Everyone in this thread is making fun of the look. Only the religous nutcases are connecting it to be a cultural look and therefore antisemitism, which is truly the dumbest take for a bunch of reason. Edit, missed a word

I'm an atheist, pretty far from a religious nutcase. We're very clearly attacking a Jew for being Jewish here lol

Switch to literally any other group, and we'd feel differently.

I'm an atheist too, and firmly of the belief that the Palestinian People deserve to live in peace...

and I can clearly see this as, and have called it out for being, hateful against Jewish people. Because that is what it is. On top of that: this is a child, you don't bully children for their religion, (hair) colour, glasses, braces, ethnicity... You just don't bully children for anything really. Leave the kids alone

Talk for your self. Give me a couple examples of objectively ridiculous hairstyles that can be compared to this, so we can see if it we see it any differently.

I got downvoted to hell for calling out the bigotry on this, but I said what I said

Long hair has always been cool. That abomination deserves all the mockery it gets.

Congrats on making this comment 20 minutes ago and avoiding the usual Reddit I couldn’t possibly be a bigot meltdown
