dear goyim who have plans that will "solve antisemitism",

if your plans start with some variant of "jews should", please, for the love of all that is good, keep your goddamn mouth shut. it's better not to say anything than to make it clear that you're an idiot.

How original. Guys, a few other groups beat you to it long ago.

If you see articles and tweets about how the Star of David is now a symbol of fascism and think to yourself "maybe they have a point," then whatever you define as your antizionism has absolutely crossed the line into antisemitism

The Star of David is one of the most important symbols in Judaism. The fact that it is on the flag of Israel does not make it fascist. The government of Israel is separate from the symbol. Labeling such a widely used symbol by a marginalized people as fascist is incredibly dangerous and seeks to conflate Jews as a whole with the Israeli government- something antizionists continually claim people shouldn't do. So why are some doing it?

High control groups slowly ease you into believing nonsensical things. They provide "reasoning" and "logic" which goes largely unchallenged within echo chambers. People in these echo chambers are prone to believing it because they start to see it as real logic instead of bigoted, twisted reasoning. Even otherwise intelligent people can fall for their prejudices as they begin to view it as a form of justice

It is a fantasy that high control group leaders go from 0 to 100 in five minutes or refuse to answer any questions- they are usually much more manipulative

Please confront your biases. The Jews are tired

Too progressive and queer to be accepted in right wing spaces, too Israeli and against antisemitism to be in left wing spaces.

Here I am, stuck in the middle as Jew

you will not be surprised to learn that not only was the commercial spot in question not “about how we all need to stand with Israel”, but israel & palestine are not referenced or alluded to in any way whatsoever.

here’s the ad:

it’s not even an ad primarily about antisemitism. it’s a campaign called “Stand Up To All Hate” about standing up to racism, Islamophobia, homophobia, sexism, antisemitism, etc.—all hate, as the name suggests.

and, for a split second, there’s a kid wearing a kippah. that’s it. shaq appeared in an ad where a kid wears a kippah and that is what is getting him accused of “supporting genocide”

Antizionist jews complaining that their friends are treating them like they're zionist jews are so close to getting that in the antisemite's eyes, we're all just Jews. And it also screams of selfishness that the only time you recognize antisemitism as closely linked to (and imo inherently the same as) antizionism is when it personally affects you.

I’ve noticed a sharp decline in “all Israelis are evil because of Bibi THE MOMENT trump won the 2024 election”

odd that the hypocrites have some humility, sad that feeling tyranny for themselves is what it took

But also YES a lot of Americans want Trump, a lot of Russians are pro-putin and even a few Israelis actually support Bibi doesn’t mean a country is their leader

hamas: launches hundreds of rockets into israel over the course of a week

israel: fires one rocket into gaza

media/tumblr/everyone: israel made an unprecedented and deadly attack on palestinians today

[silly-little-zio]

The behaviour of the Israeli hooligans in Amsterdam was disgusting and deserving of legal consequences.

Mob mentality is wrong. An angry mob taking matters into its hands is never the right response.

There's evidence that the antisemitic attacks were planned *before* the Israeli hooligans had done anything. People were called to participate in a "Jew Hunt" on social media.

I'm sorry that some of your brains can't process the fact that two or more things can be true at the same time.

When people in Queers for Palestine say things like "I know I wouldn't have rights in Palestine but my activism is not transactional" I lose it because nobody is bringing up the fact gay men get thrown of roofs because of "transactionality", we are saying it because you are actively harming the LGBT community. You actively go against your gay brothers and sisters in the Middle East when you cheer on Hamas or want to see the only gay-friendly country there abolished. You are hurting your own community because you love your community less than you hate (((Israel))). Get your head out of your asses and realize people telling you about the LGBT killings in Palestine is so you can stop hurting the Palestinians you "care so much about".

So I've been hearing that there shouldn't be a country for the jews, that it should be like "other countries" and "be for everyone".

Ok, so your country that has separation of church and state, which days are the work week?

Mon-Fri? Huh? Why is that? Maybe to make it so people won't work on Sundays, and then, go to church?

In Israel, the work week is Sun-Thu. I don't know if Americans even know that.

Friday night to Saturday night is the Sabbath, so having these days off make it easier to observe.

Muslim countries, usually, have the workweek be Sat-Wed for similar reasons.

People are so stuck on their American Defaultism that they forget that so many things are structured on purpose to benefit different people.

So when people say that Israel should be abolished and there should be a "neutral secular state", what they mean is that it should be more like what they consider the "normal" and "default".

They act like there is a "one size fits all" culture, that anything else is some perversion for the ideal of what a country should be.

That's just one of many many things, cultural and religious, that makes Israel the only place in the world where jews can live without being an afterthought.

I have a lot of problems with Israel.

So many, many problems, especially with the government, and with what's to come with Trump's victory.

I genuinely hope for a change, for the end of suffering, for lasting peace and justice.

But I'm so done with people that have their country built to suit them telling me mine shouldn't exist.

[silly-little-zio]

I am so disgusted with this country. Fuck Donald Trump and fuck everyone who voted for him.

[silly-little-zio]

At this point anyone I see calling themselves "anti-zionist" I'm going to assume is antisemitic.

[silly-little-zio]

Hey so I’m not sure if anyone knows this but uhh. Pogroms are bad. Chasing Jews down in the street to beat the shit out of them is bad. Shouting “cancer Jews” and setting shit on fire is bad. Claiming that all of this widespread violence is about a fucking football match that happened days ago and not rampant antisemitism is bad. Going on “Jew hunts” is bad. Denying the existence of antisemitism while you’re cheering on a pogrom is bad.

Harming and/or killing Jewish people because they’re Jewish is bad.

Don't make Aliyah, you are 200% less likely to be blown up by a rocket as Jew outside of Israel than one in Israel

hey so this is a batshit crazy thing to say to a person! 😁
