One pro-Israel activist has voiced her support for Gov. Kathy Hochul's potential mask ban, arguing that it would expose antisemitic agitators who use their hate as a cover.

Lizzy Savetsky, an activist, stated on "Fox & Friends" that the uniformity of hate is intended to intimidate and enable individuals to hide behind their hate, just like keyboard warriors conceal their faces and hate.

"If you're not hiding, you're proud of your message."

Numerous pro-Palestine protests have been held in cities across the U.S. since the October 7 attacks, including in New York City, where demonstrations have taken place on college campuses like Columbia and throughout the city's subway system.

Many protesters wore masks and head coverings to hide their identity and show support for Palestinians.

Savetsky stated that the mask's purpose is to empower the wearer by hiding their identity. As a result, they can act and speak with greater confidence than they would without the mask.

NY Gov. Hochul says she’s considering a mask ban to reduce hate crimes

The potential ban on masks and face coverings in the subway system in N.Y. would have exemptions for health, cultural, or religious reasons.

After a series of anti-Israel protests, Hochul's office made an announcement, and on Monday, demonstrators filled a subway car and shouted at passengers to raise their hands if they were Zionists.

An intimidating threat was made after the question: "This is your opportunity to leave."

The "day of rage" demonstrations are becoming increasingly frequent in the city, and the issue goes beyond just the subway system.

"Savetsky stated, "This has surpassed the subway and now dominates our streets. I believe we must revisit the mid-20th century when the Ku Klux Klan were banned due to their use of hoods and face coverings. We must confront this issue again.""

Anti-Israel protesters ignite New York 'day of rage'

Savetsky, who has received numerous death threats, believed a ban could reduce antisemitic incidents and deescalate protests.

According to her, people tend to be more hateful and violent when they're not showing their face. However, when you can show your face and look someone in the eye, it is possible to break down the barriers of hate and build bridges of understanding.

"These perpetrators of these threats share a common trait: they all conceal their identities. If they were required to reveal their faces, we would witness significantly less hate, threats, and violence."
