#antisemitism warning

[myspace-dot-com]

Since I’ve been seeing antisemitism coming from both zionists (mainly Christian Zionists) and anti-zionists, I’m gonna say this:

I still condemn antisemitism, it will always go against what I stand for. Being against persecution of Palestinians and against antisemitism are not mutually exclusive. I want the Hamas hostages released just as much as I want the Palestinian hostages held by Israel released, I will not stand with those that say “all Jews are like this”, I will not stand with the Evangelical Zionists who want to have all Jews deported to Israel because they want Jesus to come back and kill all Jews, I will not stand with those harassing Jews for casually celebrating Hanukkah, I will not stand by those who perpetuate the Jewish space lazer bullshit, etc. Antisemites, DO NOT FUCKING INTERACT!

Just had the weirdest conversation with someone? They were like "yeah mel gibson is bad but its kinda sad that everyone hates him" like tfym?its sad that he gets consequences for his actions?? "No its cus EVERYONE is hating on him, like i dont feel the need to add to that"

Bro i get not wanting to fill your days with more hate cus we already have so many people to hate right now, i respect and agree with not wanting to take time out of your day engaging w mel gibson bs, but what do you mean you think its "kinda sad"???

at my old high school we used to have this thing every year when we studied the holocaust

all of the students would be urged to create designs and many of the more artistic students would paint murals on the windows in the breezeways

and while im sure there were hopeful ones the only ones i remember were of nazi flags and people burning and the star of david in fire

how especially upsetting that must have been to jewish students. it was upsetting to me but that was the point. yes! look and feel bad! this was bad never forget! but what about the people in the present

the jewish kids asked about horns or with classmates who think its funny to give them swastikas clearly the murals having no effect on them

which reminds me of the time someone graffitid a swastika or several on the front of the school. the staff got very upset about it obviously

but what a double standard. you have students drawing them on the windows only visible from inside but not outside. i know the intention was different obviously. itd be a failure to think otherwise

but imagine if those murals were on the outside. you think a green spraypainted swastika on the side is a bad look? try a boy with tears streaming down his face half of his face black and shadowed standing in fire

imagine the look that would give the school. the things people would think about it.

to see that all over the school

the antisemitism is okay when its quiet when its internal and only the "right" people who "know" can see it but we make a spectacle of it rearing its head on the outside. meanwhile on the inside there are still paintings of shadowy troops with streaks of red on their arms

May be a harsh take (but I’m rightfully pissed off and need to get it off of my chest) but…

To the fuckers who refused to vote because Kamala supported “the genocide” and those “zionist genociders”- unkindly go fuck yourself. Y’all were throwing a hissy fit and turned a blind eye on those who lives were going to be affected by this election- and now look what happened. Are y’all happy now?!? We warned you- we fucking warned you that this was going to happen. Yet you ignored us- cuz we are just “dirty blood thirsty Jews”. Y’all are ridiculous.

Also fuck you to those who are “shocked and outraged” by musky boy nazi saluting on national television. We all knew he was a nazi- so the gesture did not shock us at all. What’s hilarious is that y’all did the same salute at your pro Palestine protests (there is evidence). So when you do it- it’s okay. But when the musky white man child does it- it suddenly offends you and yall are now supposedly checking in on your Jewish friends (if y’all have any left) and asking if we are ok??? Make it make sense?!? Cuz it doesn’t.

Oh and since I’ve been seeing this a lot I’m gonna address it- stop comparing the anti- trans/lgbtq laws that are in the process of being passed (along with the revocation of other bills) to nazi germany and the holocaust…. The fact that I have to say it is ridiculous and fucked up. It’s not the same thing. Okay?? This is coming from a trans/queer bi-racial Jewish person who lost family in the holocaust.

Lastly- here’s a huge fuck you to the trump supporters who voted for that orange monster.

there's something comical about Heritageposts' "blocklist" of Jewish blogs (on which my blog is listed), which consists entirely of Jews, plus some people who have been vocal allies to the Jewish community on Tumblr. (i love you all!)

Heritageposts is a known antisemite (i blocked them months ago for their explicit Jew-hatred), and they have clearly been collecting the names of Jews who have been speaking up about the tidal wave of Jew-hatred that we've been receiving from antisemites.

any Jew, and any non-Jewish ally, who speaks out loudly enough about antisemitism, Heritageposts adds to their list.

and ... i think this little piss-ant actually believes that a blocklist is going to intimidate a group of Jews into silence!!

honey. please.

we have been dealing with Jew-hatred for over 2000 years. our relatives went through the Holocaust within living memory. we've been slaughtered by the millions and shoved into mass graves.

we have been murdered by Nazis, by Communists, and by everyone in between.

we have just been through another recent pogrom by a group of fucking terrorists (Hamas is not your blorbo, kids!), and we are more united than ever.

we've been through this before, and by much worse than you.

and we are still here. and we are still proudly Jewish. we love being Jews, and we love our Jewish community.

and long after you are gone, when no one even remembers that you existed at all, we will still be here.

we will outlive you.

OH FUCK YES!!!

While North Carolina Presidential is still too close to call (Trump leads, but not by much), Josh Stein has WON the governor's race, and self-proclaimed "Black Nazi", slavery fan, opponent of women voting, and Holocaust Denier Mark Robinson has gone down in spectacular defeat!

At least one of America's worst people has already been blocked from power tonight.

[cosmicpaladintaka]

people really are just repackaging antisemitic rhetoric, because they other and dehumanize anyone they hate so much that anyone bad = a jew.

How did I just find out some people genuinely think mormons have horns????????

like people really be out here thinking this is what we do…

[lapdogchase]

i think posts about nazis - especially ones that show swastikas and nazi salutes and any other imagery like that - should probably be tagged so people can filter them. even if the post is saying "look at this nazi get punched isn't that awesome" or "look at this stupid evil incredibly powerful and dangerous billionaire doing a nazi salute isn't that awful." bc i cannot imagine what it's like to be jewish and online rn and being reminded of this shit over and over

[gemglyph]

I’ll give you all some advice, but first let’s take a walk together through some of my life.

I have some family that was killed in the Holocaust. I did not learn this until recently, but in retrospect I probably should have known.

What I had learned (when I was “old enough” and it was therefore deemed okay to talk about) was that my ashkenazi family narrowly avoided being slaughtered in the Holocaust by escaping to the US before the US closed its borders to jewish refugees.

I have always known since I was little that some of my family are jews from Sicily. They avoided pogroms (jew hunts) by hiding that they’re jewish. This part of my family immigrated (probably actually fled) to the US prior to WWII (or WWI, my family bickers about this. We don’t have records, I guess).

In both instances, they have to hide who they are to protect themselves.

Life happens, jews persist, I’m born.

Elementary school, I’m told by my family I can’t talk about my home life at school. I’m singled out by my peers and bullied for being different. I move states. Go to an entirely different elementary school. I’m singled out and bullied for being different. Jewish. Kids know this word, I know this word, it’s the 2000s, people use jew as a slur. You know that they mean it that way. Because they say it like it’s wrong.

Middle school, I only fit in with the “weird kids”. I have maybe 5 friends.

One of my friends mom is obsessed with taking me to church if I were to attend a sleepover. When I stop spending time over there because she made me uncomfortable, two of my friends confess they’re only around me because they’re trying to convert me to catholicism.

I have 3 friends.

One of my friends say they can’t be around me because it gets them bullied for associating with a jew.

I have 2 friends.

One of my friends moves away.

I have 1 friend.

It takes me being in high school for two years before I actually make any new friends. Some online, some in person. I find a couple more people I connect with and call my friends. I don’t fit in with the rest of my classmates. I’m aggressively bullied by two different groups of classmates. Jew is still used as a slur. People yell “Heil Hitler” at me in the hallway. I can’t count the amount of times I’ve actually seen the Nazi salute in person.

Because “I look jewish enough, people can just tell. It’s a joke”.

Is it? Is it a joke?

2016. I just graduated highschool and I’m in my first week of my first semester of community college. I’m stalked to my car after night class and basically pinned between my car and a big truck. He grabbed my hair and hit my head against my car. This extremely tall man tells me he should beat me to death right now because I’m a disgusting jew. I believe he will.

I’m saved by a stranger who pulls up and makes the man uncomfortable enough that he leaves. In the large truck that had been parked next to me.

I had nothing on me that is “visibly jewish”. He followed me because I look jewish enough to torment. Because I am.

I hate myself for months because I froze. I start paranoia carrying concealed knives and pray I don’t have to use them. I obsess over learning self defense. I’m disabled and not sure I’d actually be able to protect myself. I learn anyway.

2017. I drop out of community college for a few different reasons. I’m stalked on social media. I delete a lot of my accounts.

I find a job. I’m harassed every shift for six months by a supervisor who said he was happy his family was Nazis in Germany. Among many, many other things. Such as gas chamber “jokes”. My manager tells me it was a joke and to not take it too seriously.

I was working at Starbucks.

2018. I’m told that my grandma dying is a good thing because there’s “one less jew in this world”. My grandma was buried in a grave at a local christian church that she attended most her life because that was the only community she had. We never said anything to anyone (it wasn’t safe). This was supposed to be a family friend. This is my grandma’s funeral.

Later I find out that someone stole the things we left at her grave.

2020. I’m working as a pharmacy technician. My coworkers find out I’m jewish and tell me “not to wear anything that could show that because the area isn’t safe” for me. Because I’m jewish.

I stay at this job for a year before returning to school.

2021. I don’t tell anyone, people guess because I “look jewish” and ask me based on appearance. I have found a more accepting community, but I don’t share much. I’ve learned better.

2022. I make it to University. I don’t talk much to classmates, but I make friends.

2023. I talk about religion with a friend at school, they find out I’m jewish. Some people start avoiding me after October. I have said nothing other than mentioning I’m jewish.

2024. I am told, to my face, by a college student, that jews control the United States government, the media, and Hollywood. Citing a major conspiracy theorist. When prompted to consider his sources, he tells me I’m only saying that because I’m jewish.

This list is not exhaustive, but it is exhausting. I’ve faced this shit my entire life and I’m not alone. My story isn’t unique.

It’s nearing the end of 2024. There has been a huge rise in antisemitism/bigotry over the past year. People are doing the same things they have always done. Tormenting jewish people, calling us slurs, telling us to kill ourselves. The list goes on.

The Nazis came for the jews first. Our neighbors turned on us. Other marginalized people we hoped we could rely on threw us out hoping to save themselves. Only for the Nazis to come for them.

First they came for us jews.

They will come for you.

Do something about it.

GUYS .I HATE THE SMURFS

suicide cw

look i have been in this area before mentally. it sucks and i wouldn’t wish this on anyone. but, and this is going to sound callous, but i don’t feel any sympathy for james somerton. even if i hope he’s like. not dead. But thats all the amount of goodwill im willing to give him. The more i think about this really, the more angry i am. 

ngl this entire situation is another example of how white people weaponize their mental illness to avoid consequences. Im seeing it in real time.

this man has a continuous habit of using self-harm as a get-out-of-jail-for-free card. in both of his apologies, he has worded his supposed attempts in ways that were clearly meant to guilt people who displayed his plagiarism and overall horrendous history of racism and misogyny. i say supposed because, while i’m not saying those are lies and this would he such a fucked up thing to lie about that i don’t want to think he has, unfortunately, it’s been proven again and again that his word can’t be trusted, as he’s known to lie to try get out of consequences. Hes a proven liar. him lying about this is actually the best case scenario, because no one should go through this entire situation, wouldnt wish this on anyone, but you can only do this so often before people stop sympathizing with you. is this callous? Yeah, but like. I’m actually fucking angry he cant straight up take no as an answer. that this is how he reacts realizing he cant be one of the Cool Kidz™️ on youtube anymore. he acts like he DESERVES a career, like its not a privilege hes lost due to his own actions.

He lied about apologizing and forgiving people, he lied about giving the money to hbomberguy to give to ppl he ripped off (yknow, instead of doing it himself), he lied about the jessie gender situation and rewrote the narrative to make it so he isnt the bad guy, and hes the victim all along actually!

you can’t tell me that supposed last message of his isn’t meant to be a 13 reasons why esq attempt to deflect the blame “look i’m going to kill myself and it’s all YOUR PEOPLES FAULT for not letting me achieve my DREAM of being filmmaker IN PEACE!!! I just wanted Nick’s (the guy who I have thrown under the bus again and again) portfolio up!! Im just being a good friend dont you all FEEL BAD” he refuses to take ANY ACCOUNTABILITY of any of his actions and he IS STILL trying to shove the blame over to other people again.

it’s also pretty ironic people are like “uhhh well hbomber’s fans harassed him!!!” like hbomber outright told people NOT to HARASS JAMES!!! ALSO acting as if james doesn’t have a very real documented history of STRAIGHT UP sending his fans to harass and threaten smaller creators, more notably women, trans, and bipoc creators. especially after he’s stolen typically very personal anecdotes so he could profit from them. so why can he do it but the second people are like “hey this guys an actual piece of shit.” and he can’t handle it suddenly people are trying to white knight his shit? like no he doesn’t get that. he doesn’t get that at all just because he couldn’t handle the consequences of his actions. 

what? were supposed to stay quiet about a man profiting off of other minorities because he wanted to be the spokesman for all gay people? people tried to solve this on a smaller, more private scales for YEARS and he kept doing it. it was clear that the giant public video was the ONLY way to get people to notice. HE WOULDVE GOTTEN AWAY WITH STEALING 87 FUCKING THOUSANDS WORTH OF DOLLARS. HE CANT HANDLE THE FACT HE CANT GET AWAY WITH IT. 

am i supposed to feel bad for the guy who basically threatened a trans woman with the police? i don’t care what anyone says, it’s so fucking obvious that he threatened jessie by implying he was getting the police involved in their conflict. what am i supposed to act like that didn’t happen? are we supposed to pretend like he didn’t glorify nazi’s and outright said that gay people made up a good chunk of the nazis? That he didnt say america joined ww2 bc they were jealous of the NAZIS. WHAT WOULD POSSESS YOU TO FUCKING SAY THAT. but then? He gives women (not even women most of the time, he misgenders nonbinary ppl constantly) shit for writing mlm. are we supposed to act like he doesn’t straight-up sees himself superior and better than people of color and steals their works to put himself on a pedestal? Are we supposed to act like he didnt spit on our elders by saying “only the boring gays survived aids” like man! Fuck you! He BLANTANTLY MAKES UP HISTORY TO PUT HIMSELF ON A PEDESTAL!! HE ACTIVELY TRIED TO REWRITE LGBT HISTORY TO SUIT HIS FUCKED UP NARRATIVES!

yes this sucks ! no one deserves this but no one should be making him a martyr. Thats what he fucking WANTS! He wants to be immortalized as a victim!! (again, supposedly, it was reported hes alive but its not confirmed).

The shit he got isnt near the amount of fucking callous behavior hes done again and again. Again, to drill this point, EVEN IF HE DIDNT CALL THE POLICE HE THREATENED A TRANS WOMAN INTO THINKING HE DID!!! The fact he tried to use a head injury to justify years of the outright ghoulish shit fucking astounds me. Why the fuck did anyone in his life thought it was a good idea to let him TRY to come back. in the end, he had options. he didn’t need to try to make a comeback. HE DIDNT NEED TO FUCKING LIE OR IGNORE THE SHIT HE WAS CALLED OUT ON the reality is, he wanted to come back thinking he could shove it under the rug, was told that no dude, you’re not allowed to be a youtuber anymore. you’re done. you need to move on and went full nuclear. it’s not on anyone’s hands but his own. HES BEEN DOING THIS TO HIMSELF!! But nah man we cant call his shit out bc hell may or may not kill himself. Fuck the other minorities who have the same issues but worse and sometimes BECAUSE of him. This is going to SUCKKKK so bad when other ppl, specifically white gays, are going to weaponize this shit to get away with their stuff.

Watch people visibly change their minds on what it's okay to do to people or not based just on who the victims are.

Chris at chriscaresnone is a national treasure. A true mensch. He's one of the helpers that Mr. Rogers told us to look for. When he saw the massive rise in antisemitic bigotry around the world, he stepped up to protect Jewish people by sharing and kvelling about our food on his Instagram.

You've probably seen his videos. He starts out with "Hey Jewish people!" and then tells us to stop gatekeeping our Babka 😂

Food is something that brings us all together, and by sharing the beauty of Jewish food, he is sharing the beauty of the Jewish people. He lives in New York, so a lot of the kosher food he shares is from the Hasidic community. I'm glad he's standing up to protect Orthodox Jews, since Orthodox Jews are more likely to be the target of hate crimes. I'd also love for him to explore Sephardi and Mizrahi cuisine in the future.

Make sure you're following him on Insta. He shares food from lots of different cultures around New York, and he uses food to build dialogue and connection between people.

Well, looks like the slick PR strategy's won out again- looked up Neil Gaiman, and the top posts are all fan stuff*.

So, here is your periodic reminder that Neil Gaiman is a well-known serial sexual abuser who has yet to face justice for his crimes.

*And I think one that had his name on a boycott list of celebrities who "support Israel", which knowing how these assholes usually operate could mean anything from being a hard-core Netanyahu/war supporter, to simply living while Jewish.
