"Jews have a right to feel safe in their communities."

"Wait. No. We take it back."

Christ on fire, empathy is absolutely a finite resource for these assholes and it ends at giving a single fuck about Jews.

so apparently the nyc dyke march account made a post saying that jews are safe to participate this time,

and then deleted it and took it back.

the absolute GALL to take back a post like this and call it "harmful". I'm just in shock. do they not fucking hear themselves.

just a reminder that the rwrb movie is not going to be exactly the version we have in our heads

it might suck ass. it might be fun.

It's going to be its own thing with its own voice, and we will always have the book, if it ends up letting us down. but also, let's not get too pessimistic here and assume it's going to be garbage before it releases either.

we don't know what it will be yet. we might love it.

there have been amazing movies with dog shit posters and trailers. there have been amazing adaptations of books that made changes while also keeping the core story alive.

it's from a brand new director, so we don't know how he'll do. meanwhile, it's also direct to Prime video... so yikes.

All we know is what the director says. And that CMQ supports his decisions, as far as we can tell.

He's said it will be a rom-com, with plenty of comedy, and the intimacy will be valued and important to the story. On the other hand, we also know they made the wild decision to erase Nora's religion and ethnicity. it also removed several characters we hold dear, and will inevitably have to cut many scenes we love for time.

that's everything we know for sure. There's positives, there's negatives, it could still go either way

I'm trying not to get my hopes up, and trying to stay realistic with my expectations, without writing the whole thing off before it's even out

let's not let pessimism win

hey are you even jewish? i see you comment on antisemitism a lot but there doesnt seem to be any posts about it on your blog

Yes I am. I'm Russian Jewish on both sides of my family. I'm not sure what you mean by "not any posts about it" since like you said I do comment and reblog about antisemitism. Do you mean no original posts about it? It's not the focus of my blog. I'm mostly on this platform to enjoy fun stupid shit, and just because I'm jewish doesn't mean I have an obligation to only talk about antisemitism.

The reason people in israel are like that is because they have an army that fucking cares about its civilians and actually protects them, in oppose to Hamas.

Boom

Jews are from Judea

Michael Lumish

Jews represent about .02 percent of the world population and about 1.5 percent of the population of the United States. And, yet, we actually have representatives in the US Congress who think that Jews are illegally “occupying” Judea. These people – including Ilhan Omar (D-Minnesota), Rashida Tlaib (D-Michigan) and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) – are racist antisemitic anti-Zionists who have found comfortable homes for themselves within the Democratic Party. It must be understood that Arabs are from the Arabian Peninsula and that Jews are from Judea, otherwise known as Israel. It was not the Jews that conquered almost the entire Middle East and North Africa. It was the Arabs who did so. And one of the amazing things about the Arab-Muslim imperial conquests is that they have actually managed to convince the guilt-ridden “white” people of Europe and America that Arabs are indigenous to other peoples’ lands. Forget the Copts and the Kurds and the Yazidis and the Bahai and the Jews. It all belongs to the Arabs who are currently engaged in a wild genocide of the Christians, who even Euro Christians, including the Pope, simply do not care about. In truth, the Jews of the Middle East (i.e. Jewish Israelis) are going to defend themselves whether you like it or not. And if you favor BDS then throw away your fucking cell-phone… you amazing hypocrites.

I've seen this post but never commented on it. It's funny because the repliers are seeing it as antisemitiam when op was actually being misandrist. Then you have the casual comment about "white feminist", when this originally had nothing to do with feminist and uhm Jews can be white so??? Tbh everyone in this post is ignorant.

oh my god I was waiting for a bus and there were these two fedora wearing clones stood nearby and I thought ‘wow they exist in real life’ and then twO MORE GOT OFF A BUS AND JOINED THEM AND THEY ALL LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME AND I JUST DON’T UNDERSTAND

"Antizionism isn't antisemitism" It fucking is when you think having American Jews at your event means you're taking a stance on Israel at all. It fucking is when you equate all Jews with zionism. It fucking is when you claim to Jews will be safe at your event and then take it back.

Dyke March New York is equating all Jews with the Jews they don't like. That's antisemitism.

so apparently the nyc dyke march account made a post saying that jews are safe to participate this time,

and then deleted it and took it back.
