This Dropout mishegoss is why antizionism is antisemitism

Some "activists" targeted a few random Jewish people and (without evidence!!) just labeled them Zionists

Then a whole ass company had to say "we've never knowingly worked with any Zionists" - which seems like a tall order considering how many staff and people work on shows and just how many guests they've had over the years

So now Dropout's incentive is this: they have to carefully scrutinize the background of any Jew they hire - and only Jews - to determine whether they've said anything Bad(tm)

Wish you guys could understand that some of you are straight up Not Safe for jews to be around. You have actively worked to make the pro-palestine movement unsafe for them. So good job I guess. Did Dropout do it? Did they perform penance in public enough for you to stop accusing every jew they platform of being a secret evil genocide lover? Did they fucking do it? Are you happy now? Are you a special little activist for making every jew near you feel unsafe? Fucking hell

LMFAO YOUR NAME IS HANA you’re just LARPING being middle eastern you pissbaybee :/

do you all know how to use google.

like chana is an incredibly old jewish name that dates back to biblical times.

it is a middle eastern name.

most americans can't pronounce my name because it has a ח, a sound found in semitic languages but not in english.

and additionally, there are many people whose names don't match their ethnicity, especially in the US, where I live.

Anyone else here shocked and horrified by dropouts sudden declaration? Or is it just me? I had to read through it about five times until I believed it was real.

It’s so funny seeing pro-israelis try to defend Israel with the excuse of ‘Israel protecting themselves’. or that it’s ‘Not Israel’s fault because Hamas is hiding with civilians’ etc etc.

Like please. The USA has managed to kill !THREE! leaders of terrorist groups without killing tens of thousands of innocent people. Turkey has killed ISIS militants and hit targets without killing tens of thousands of people.

They also prove how they’re completely ignorant how violent Israel has been towards Palestine before. This has been going on for way longer than October 7th 2023. There is absolutely NO justification for what Israel is doing. If you support genocide simply say so.

Update on the Iranian university student, Ahou Daryaei:

Tw: violence, misogyny

[Tweet made by Iranian journalist/human rights activist, Masih Alinejad (Nov 3, 2024):

Breaking: The authorities in Iran are now claiming that a young woman, who courageously removed her clothes in protest against harassment by the morality, police at her university, suffers from psychological illness and has been admitted to a mental health hospital.

This accusation of mental instability is a familiar tactic by the Islamic Republic. In 2014, when I launched the My Stealthy Freedom campaign against compulsory hijab, the regime used similar lies against me, claiming I had a mental breakdown, undressed myself on the London subway and was raped by three men.

This is how they attempt to undermine those who resist their oppression.

I believe her life is now in serious danger. I urge international media, human rights organizations, and the international community to see through these lies and support her before is too late.

Stand up for Iranian women who have had enough of this regime’s gender apartheid.

This woman has been forcibly hospitalized under psychiatric supervision—marking the start of torture and, soon after, the cycle of forced confessions.

One student who witnessed the entire incident says:

“On Saturday, November 2, we saw the university’s security and Basij forces trying to forcibly drag a female student into the security room, under the pretext of her not wearing a proper hijab. She resisted, and in the struggle, her hoodie was pulled off, leaving her with only her undergarments underneath. Shocked, the security officers let her go, after which, in a moment of rage, she removed her pants and threw them at the officers.”

This eyewitness account directly contradicts the regime’s narrative and shows the extent of brutality Iranian women face for the most basic acts of defiance.

Let’s be her voice. /End of tweet]

Women being labled "witches", "hysterical", "mentally unstable" and "psychotic" by repressive men in charge any time they dare to stand up for themselves, in defiance of injustice and inequality, is an old tale in patriarchy book. Risking your safety and life in protest against a regime that is known for femicide is an act of incredible bravery #woman life freedom

ya being kafkaesque isn’t about turning into a bug it’s about how if you turned into a bug your boss would still be like “ok but we’re short staffed can u still come in”

Debra Silverstein, who represents the area in the City Council, chided Johnson for omitting the victim’s Jewish identity.

“The victim was a Jewish man, who was wearing traditional Jewish garb, walking to a Jewish place of worship on the Jewish day of rest,” Silverstein responded on X. “Don’t erase his identity and don’t try to minimize the fear and anxiety my community feels after this attack. We’re scared and we need to know that our mayor has our back.”

There is a petition going around calling for trader Joe's to stop stocking Israeli products.

And like intentionally or not, it's going to affect jews.

In certain regions, it's the only store which stocks kosher food in a reasonable distance, often times it's mainly the Israeli food which is kosher.

Even if you are supporting the petition with no antisemitic intentions and purely because of the Israeli government, if the petition goes through and became a thing trader Joe's actually does, you are preventing jews from accessing kosher food, which is antisemitic. Intention doesn't always equal a non harmful effect.

If you believe that trader Joe's stopping stocking Israeli products is thay important, you should be advocating for alternate brands which are kosher to be stocked. Aka replace them with other brands rather than just getting rid of the products full stop.

I'm not proud of it, but if anyone ever actually insisted on calling what is happening in Palestine right now the Holocaust I would probably beat them to a bloody pulp. I would commit a violent crime.

Today I saw a Magen David drawn on a bench with a swastika inside of it.

I'm not tired. I'm not done. I'm furious.
