Alan Dershowitz was denied a pierogi at Martha's Vineyard's Good Pierogi. Then he returned [View all]

Alan Dershowitz was denied a pierogi at Martha’s Vineyard’s Good Pierogi. When he returned accusing the owners (one of whom is Jewish) of antisemitism, patrons—including Jews—pushed back. As he kept haranguing, the crowd chanted: “Time to go!”



Important context:

The co-owner of Good Pierogi is Krem Miskevich - who is Jewish & has immediate family in Israel.
Source: IG

Krem uses they/them pronouns.

They were protesting against Dershowitz's representation of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein - among other such offenders like Dominique Strauss-Kahn.

Krem & another Jewish member of the company protested against the Jewish Culture Festival in West Tisbury due to "the funders and performers of the event who’ve demonstrated support for the Israel Defense Forces."
MV Times

They were NOT protesting the event because its identity. They were protesting the festival's connection to the IOF, who are committing genocide in Gaza.

Dershowitz falsely claimed Krem was protesting this event because of antisemitism.

Dershowitz also repeatedly misgendered Krem, one of the co-owners of Good Pierogi - even after being alerted to the fact he was doing so.
