Thank you for posting this.

And you're right: it is extremely weird.

Not really, thousands of people a day do the same thing at the same wall, not all are Jewish

You only think it's weird because it's being done by a fascist pedophile

It's objectively weird in any context. Being into history or religion is not weird. Traveling to a certain place to view a specific piece of history is not weird. Being forced to wear a tiny hat before you can pet a stone wall associated with a religion you don't belong to is pretty strange. Pretending that it means anything more to you for political gain is odd as well.
