I just saw a post talking about supporting Jews, then OP reblogged it with "ZIONISTS NOT WELCOME!"
...Who is going to tell them? I mean, they'll probably deny it like all of the antizionists do, but:
Ethnic Jews are indigenous to the land of Israel. There is loads of evidence to support this. By being antizionist, you are saying that indigenous people who reclaimed their land shouldn't be allowed to do so. But you only say this about Jews. You are antisemitic.
And if you truly believe that Jews originated in Europe (despite all of the archeological evidence of them being in Judea (Israel) no less then 3,000 years ago), then you are a fucking idiot.

hi, i'm the soviet jewry anon
there's so much to kvetch about, i dont know where to begin
i was gonna traumadump but im gonna rant about jewish history instead
well ever since i noticed activism becoming an internet trend i knew we were doomed cuz a part of soviet antisemitism is an intellectualisation of jew hatred (that's why stalin would publicly condemn antisemitism and then be antisemitic in a manner he could treat as just "anti nationalism not antisemitism"). first of all jewishness/antisemitism is already so complex which means it's really easy for people (jews and non-jews) to misunderstand it and harm us. so when i saw people quickly latching on to binaries such as the oppressed/oppressor and good/bad and removing all nuance, i knew things were gonna go downhill. yes all forms of hatred are very complex but in my opinion even the most basic forms of antisemitism like "jews control the world!" aren't properly grasped by gentiles which strengthens antisemitism since they're so ignorant about us lol. this is particularly dangerous because most people have never met a jew or know much about us and we are only like .2% of the world. what's worse is that they view us through a culturally christian lens as well instead of seeing us for who we really are.
the phrase antisemitism makes you stupid is too real. it feels like a stupidity epidemic has really made itself clear with the rise of antisemitism which opens the door to other hatreds too.
back to soviet antisemitism, i cant really discuss it properly because yk tumblr antisemites are everywhere and i dont want you to get harassed by them but here's some things i wanna bring attention to
taken from this incredible book "The Jews of Eastern Europe, 1772-1881" by Israel Bartal, "The imperial project to enlighten and reeducate the Jews in the spirit of the autocratic Russian state was to be implemented through the establishment of a system of Jewish schools, with instruction in Russian. The actions of the authorities in the days of the affair of ‘‘government- sponsored enlightenment’’ were similar to those taken by colonial regimes that sought to disseminate European culture among the natives in their overseas colonies." of course this didn't work lmao but it was one of their many many many efforts. people don't realise the scorching similarities between native americans and jewish people and it is so frustrating. people don't understand the extent of both of our suffering.
2. In the early 1960s the image of the Jew in the Soviet Union was that of an evil capitalist carrying out illegal capitalist deals which resulted in a high number of death sentences and executions of Jews which was not really out of the norm since death sentences and executions were already "normal" punishments for Jews, it was just a new excuse :/
3. a book i read a long time ago about soviet jewry said: a) jews are more safe in the democractic centre than everywhere else and b) jews in the soviet union were not allowed to assimilate or live a jewish life, nor were they allowed to immigrate even though the soviet union didn't want them there which i found very interesting. i cannot remember the name or author but i will look and let you know later if i find it.
4. the newspapers in the soviet union in their antisemitic propaganda would list the full names of jews along with their home and work addresses, job positions, etc. these newspapers would also illustrate the jew as disrespectful and harmful to "even their own jewish people and synagogues" to show how bad we are lmao.
5. theres so many jewish political movements partly because when everyone is so dedicated to wiping out jewish culture, these political movements form a jewish culture as an attempt to make up for the absence. this may seem simple but it seems like people really don't understand our desperation for survival. moreover soviet union "atheism" mostly attacked jews and really shows how atheism/secularism can be damaging to us as well.
LASTLY. some book recs :)
the jews in poland and russia by antony polonsky, a writer at war by vasily grossman and anything by joseph roth.
sorry for this long rant but im tireddd
hi anon, thank you so much for this information! there really is nothing new under the sun when it comes to antisemitism huh. usually i’m a weenie when it comes to publically answering asks about jewish topics but i think this is too important and interesting to just leave in my ask box so i’m gonna post this one. hopefully some of my followers will take interest in it
and thanks for the book recs!

Look upon my works all ye mighty and despair.
(The following is satire, I’m going to make a bloody artist’s statement about this.)
[ID: The Thomas Jefferson Miku Binder meme edited to be of Jonah Magnus. He’s white, with brown hair, grey eyes, a shirt that says “I met God. She’s” and then a drawing of an eye, he’s wearing a green and black bracelet, blue trousers, an eye earring, and a blue binder with a Hatsune Miku design. His info says his name is Jonah Magnus; he speaks English and French; he’s male and uses he/him pronouns; he is trans, aro, and gay; and he is over 200 years old. The additional info says: born and raised in Manchester; Jewish; dating Albrecht von Closen, Barnabus Bennet, Sampson Kempthorne, and Robert Smirke; broke up with Jonathan Fanshawe; has a crush on Jonathan Sims; used to be addicted to “drug smoothies” (cannabis, coca, mescal, morphine, heroin); flamboyant & camp. /End ID]
If you take anything at all away from this post, I want to to be that you should absolutely Not headcanon Jonah Magnus as Jewish, like ever, please for the love of god do not.
The folks on the seasons on the archives discord (esp. @jewishjon @spirallingintotheabyss and @pocketsizedquasar ) encouraged, aided, and hated with a burning passion this. Also inspired. Blame them and me. We did this as a community. They came up with drug smoothie.
Anyway, see Sahar (poketsizedquasar)’s post about Jonah Magnus and why hc-ing him as a minority is fucked up. Also, just, um, take a good long think about why headcanoning him as Jewish is the fucking worst, and you should not! Holy crap.
Finally, if Jonny Sims sees this, I am so, so sorry, but I will never tag anything so you can’t see it, because I live on the edge.
This a work of satire, inspired by a conversation, inspired by a fic that sucked. It is parodying the headcanons around Jonah Magnus — a canonical abusive, white supremacist, capitalist — by comparing him to Thomas Jefferson, who was a real life person, and was a thousand times more fucked up by virtue of being from real life, and causing harm to real people. It’s a joke, but a joke with meaning behind it, urging people to read into the themes of a show before making headcanons that are actually super bigoted.

The conservative numbers are: 2.6 million by bullets, 2.8 million by gas, 300K by Romanian allies, and an unknown hundreds of thousands who died of hunger, exposure, disease, etc. Since over half a million Polish Jews died between September 1939 and June 1941 in ghettos and labor camps when conditions where at their best, 6 million is probably an under estimate even factoring in a doubtless high number of shootings.
The claim that Jews were systemically turned into soap and lampshades have been clarified by scholars for years, and this information is widely available; there were individual Nazis who occasionally took a trophy and it was the Nazis who taunted Jews that they used soap made of their family members. While it wasn't true it was widely believed by many including Poles.

Fucking insane seeing other Jews saying we should re-consider Hanukkah because maybe the Greeks weren't actually all that bad. Do you think your own people are liars?

You can't be antizionist and pro-indigenous. You have to pick one.
You can't support "land back," but then say that Israel has no right to exist. You have to pick one.
Or are you only pro-indigenous and pro-landback when it isn't The Jews™️?

Hello Twitter refugees!
Please don’t bring your weird two sentence hot takes with you here- I’ve found that in recent years people are more sane and more open to discussion on Tumblr than they used to be, and definitely more so than on Twitter
And definitely please don’t bring that particularly nutty brand of Twitter antisemitism. There are already a few like that here- we don’t need any more of them

Someone just told me to "stop complaining and go back where [I] came from" RE: my decrying antisemitism. The catch 22 for Jews right now is so real. People want us to leave wherever we are (in my case, the US, which this person knows), but they also think we should get out of Israel. Where...are we meant to go?
Antisemitism is on the rise worldwide--across Europe, including in Berlin, in France, in the UK. It's on the rise in Canada, in the USA*...I could go on. Where are we safe? My hometown synagogue receives bomb threats weekly. I receive death and rape threats on a regular basis, simply for being a Jew on social media. I don't wear my Star of David in public anymore. People clock me as Jewish and harass me anyway.
*My opinions on the ADL are for a different post, but this is a worthwhile article, I think.
Jews are a people in diaspora. Whether or not you believe we have a claim to a homeland, be it Israel or elsewhere, we are in diaspora and in many cases cannot be otherwise. Our Jewish communities have, in a lot of instances, been completely wiped out. We cannot "go back to" where our grandparents, our great-grandparents, etc. came from. There is nothing for us there.
I walked past a pro-Palestinian rally on the way to work in NYC the other day. Amidst the "Free Palestine" signs (which I agree with!) was a large "Denounce Judaism" sign that broke my heart.
I've had people say to my face that murdered and kidnapped Israeli civilians deserved it. How can anyone deserve that? How can Palestinian civilians deserve the horrors Israel has visited on them in response? Why does it have to be one or the other?
Why is my religion, my culture being vilified? Why are people drawing these false equivalencies that being Jewish = being pro-Israel and/or anti-Palestine (neither necessarily follows), that Jews = Israelis (false) and Israelis = the Israeli government (also false; I have so many Israeli friends who voted against this government, who are organizing and rallying for peace)?
I don't know how to exist in the world right now. I don't know how to be proudly Jewish, how to fight for my rights, while being willfully mischaracterized by people all along the political spectrum of my home country (the USA) and by the larger world.
What are we as Jews supposed to do? Where are we supposed to go? When will we be enough?
I'm tired. I'm scared. I'm grieving murdered civilians on both sides. I'm praying for the safe return of Israeli hostages. I'm praying for a ceasefire. I'm advocating in all the ways I know how. I'm tired. I'm scared.

The Know Your Rights document was created in response to alleged censorship by the Portland Public School District of “teachers and other education workers who are teaching about Palestine, posting pro-Palestine sentiments in schools, and even those wearing pro-Palestine messages.
Examples of alleged censorship included banning student work on settler colonialism and Zionism, presentations about Palestinians, and wearing clothing with the phrase “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.”
In addition to explaining legal and contractional protections and rights for educators seeking to teach pro-Palestinian perspectives, the document provides definitions for key terms. Antisemitism is described as a European Christian phenomenon, and Zionism as a “settler colonial political ideology and movement.”
