I'm sorry but why is this so heavily upvoted?

Anit-semitism and any other form of hate speech is abhorrent, but imprisonment for a gesture is absolutely dystopian.

This instance doesn't have downvotes, and a lot of people upvote the article to boost visibility, not necessarily because they agree with whatever or whoever the article is about.

I didn't know that. Thanks for the info.
