#he is SO Jewish coded it’s stupid

[spindrifters]

I personally am thrilled and think it’s super neat that I’m seeing more and more depictions of remus as a brown boy

BUT

it’s important not to lose sight of conversation within that about what that means for a character who is at various moments coded by his narrative as a) othered and distrusted by his society, b) “animal,” and c) hiding his true nature most of the time

I’m not saying don’t do it! I’m saying KEEP doing it! but with awareness of dehumanizing tropes and an aim to deconstruct them

[iskander-tm]

"Ummm making a fictional character supporter of Palestine is insane, are you stupid 🤓" like no? Maybe they are stupid and there's definitely something wrong with them, not you. Yes Spock is Jewish coded and played by a Jewish actor but what does that have to do with anything? Should you male him like, support the genocide? I don't think so...

Also again, at the end of the day he is a fictional character.

Yep! also people always made fictional character oppose whatever the batshit evil there are at the time, like superman literally beat hitler a couple of times in the comics

Plus Spock literally did fough fucking nazis in the series itself

PLUSSSS if my little fanart will make people help palestinians, then why not make this little fanart?

[david-goldrock]

I have a genuine question that I hope is okay to ask - feel free to delete if not.

Recently I was told that a one state solution with Israel being the one state is something that is advocated for by the majority of right-wing Israelis who don't believe peace is possible with Palestinians as things stand. Is that true? And if so, I was also told this was not a particularly practical resolution because then you'd just have them in your country. Other states have made it extremely clear that they will not take in Palestinian refugees so the only way this ends without either two states or an Israel teeming with people bent on revenge who will never voluntarily integrate or give up their dream of an Islamic state in eretz Yisrael is if they are mostly killed.

But say that Israel managed to do so without the rest of the world intervening to stop it first. Wouldn't Israel truly be a pariah state then, if it survived the venues of the rest of the world?

Wouldn't that make it ultimately less practical for Israel (ignoring, obviously the human cost here) despite the drawnacks of the other solutions?

well... you don't have to convince me that this plan is stupid XD

I wouldn't say most right-wing Israelis call for that. some call for the annexation of area C only

Some call for a federation as well

as for those who call for complete annexation...

Since I don't agree with their solution even a little, all I can do is to let their leader talk and to translate; that I can do. here is an interview of Betzalel Smotrich, the leader of the "Jewish Might" party, by, mainly, Lior Shlein, a semi-leftist comedian whose partner is the leader of the "Labor" party, conducted in 2016 (3 wars ago)

I will color code the text. the red is me giving clarifications and comments

Friends, most of the nation understands that the land of Israel belongs to us, the same way that most of the nation understands, that one must not give areas of the land of Israel to the arabs

yes-

Most of the nation understands, that one must not allow the establishment of a Palestinian country

Okay

And so- most of the nation will come to us; so it went to Bibi (Nethanyahu, the leader of the right-winged "Unity" party and the prime minister at the time) Because Bibi has managed to trick it

But wait a minute... when you say that...

And to tell it how "right winged" he is

When you're saying it here...

And it will return to us swiftly

When you're saying it, who are you {trying to} convince? us, yourself? for, there is a world, there is a reality, there are millions of Palestinians

My solution says that we are finishing the conflict {in our favor}

yes

Not continuing to manage it like we are doing for 100 years in a bloody way

yes

This solution says that we are finishing it {in our favor} by actions, and it means that we establish...

Is your solution that we'll win? that's...

Establishing the sovereignty -

it's not...

No, no, first of all, first of all, yes, friends, don't be so scared from the word "victory" -

Up until now we are with you, Really with you, Up until now we are with you-

By the way, the left is the one that very much liked the word "Victory" up until now, right? the V15, that was for Victory, I think that that was the title -

I don't know, we'll have to ask the left when we'll interview it

We very much like; we will finish this conflict {in our favor}, we'll establish the Israeli sovereignty all over the expanses of the land of Israel and Judea and Samaria, And then a few options emerge to what shall we do with the arabs who live there today

Option 1 behind curtain 1-

Option 1...

If they are loyal to us, they remain here

One option, they can remain as citizens-

Option 2.

Second option, can remain not as citizens but to get some kind of autonomy

Option 3.

Third option, to remain as residents, like the arabs of east Jerusalem; Let's put the options on the table, and talk and discuss and argue about the with no fear, up until today there is only one option on the table

And how would you... And how would you call this solution in 4 words- "No arabs no terror-attacks"? or "No brain, no worries"? How would you... How would you define this game show you just invented?

I would call it "The finishing {in our favor} plan". It's the only thing that has a chance to bring peace and quiet to the citizens of Israel. It's the only thing that can bring, Lior, to coexistence between arabs and jews-

And if 2.5 million palestinians say "Smotrich! we're with you, we are loyal" would you give them the right to elect (to the knesset)?-

I don't know. I think not. Tell me for a moment, in the USA... (Oh I wanna know what did he want to say so much)

It went so quickly from the mere shock of the question to the decisiveness of "I don't know" and then "No"

I already said that there are 3 options.

yes

That I don't want to make a call between them right now. I want the Israeli public to discuss them, to argue about them; up until today there is only 1 plan on the table

But you're making another 2.5 million palestinians to Israeli public!-

Wait a minute! Up until today...

That's what I am telling you!

But that's not what I said.

Why not?

Up until today, there is only 1 plan on the table. The same way that there are 2 apartments for 2 partners, y'all want 2 countries for 2 people (A jab at Lior, who lives in a different apartment to his partner)

Who's y'all?

That's a not-realistic solution

Who's you? You want 2 delivery rooms for 2 nations (A jab at Smotrich, who said he doesn't want his wife to give birth in the same room as an arab) Stop it, may god help us! (Similar to the english "Jeez") You know...

You understand, though, You understand, though, Smotrich, that the reality doesn't show what you're showing, It shows us 2 options: either you don't give the arabs the right to vote and that's an apartheid, or you do give them the right to vote, and then immediately there will be in the Knesset a giant party, of religious fanatics, and that hates women, and gays, aren't you scared they will take your votes? That's what I am...

Look... I... I mainly am seeing what the reality teaches, reality, yes?

yes

The real one, teaches us that for years we are fantasising that we have someone to talk to (about peace) and we don't have someone to talk to (about peace). The solution, though, of 2 states isn't realistic, it never was realistic, the maximum that the most far left in Israel is willing to give, is much less than the minimum that the most modest leader among the arabs will agree to accept and remain alive for 2 days, this is a fiction-

What did you come to convince us, the the palestinians, some of whome are terrorists and they don't want...

I came to... no, no, not some of them, all of them. I came to convince...

All of them? All of them?! okay, fair enough, okay, and then?

I came to convince that there is no chance for a model that is based on the division of the land, therefore we need to move to a model that's based on the unification of the land, and that means establishing sovergnity, and that means uprooting the Palestinians the hope for fullfilling nationalist aspirations here, in the land of Israel, they have a bunch of ISIS around to search where to do that, not here. It means this land is ours. What to do with them in the day after? {it's a} question, I said earlier at least 3 options, let's talk about them, let's argue, I don't want to set rivets

Okay, you got us convinced, what about the reality, Smotrich? - We can uproot their... - What about the world?

Lior...

You understand, the you merely equating, no for real, because you don't need to convince... we are jews, we are Israelis, we are in the same boat, we suffer from terror, we suffer from the BDS, we suffer from antisemitism. You understand, that these kinds of talks by a respectable knesset member like you, they only cause more antisemitism, more BDS?

I think the exact opposite.

You understand...

no

That you are putting the BSD (Besiata Deshmaya- with the help of god, something said before making statements by some religious jews) in the BDS?

I think... Lior, I think the exact opposite. I think that the real reason for the great international pressure of the world to us to establish a palestinian state, is because we are saying that that is the solution. The prime minister of the right, not of the left, stands, and says the vision of the 2 states... by the way, last week he said that he has some kind of dream to make this vision a reality. so the world tells us "guys, for years you are busy at searching for excuses for why yes, but not right now. stop shitting us, if that's the solution, go for it". If we will go to the world and say that it's not the solution, I think that the world will recognize our right over the land of Israel, by the way in most of the religious writings of the world, which is mainly religious, the historical and religious right over the entirety of the land of Israel... by the way Abraham our forefather wasn't here in Tel Aviv and not in Herzeliya either, don't be offended, he was in Schem, Hebron, Alon More, these are the places where the nation of Israel had risen

Let's show the scene. let's see, Abraham our forefather, in Schem and Hebron- I promise to get- Lior realistic solutions, a temple, stuff like that, let's talk about concrete stuff, and not delusions like a state for a nation! let's, let us be...

From you, I expect not to disparage the bible-

I didn't disparage the bible-

Forget it, these ashkenazis that have disconnected and drifted apart for I don't know how much time, from you...

What is this Smotrich, from Tzan'a? (Smotrich is ashkenazi too, Tzan'a is where many Yemenite jews came from) from where?

Firstly, they kidnapped me, so the damage has already been done (a joke about the fact that in very early Israel yemenite children were kidnapped by ashkenazi families and the government had left that covered for years), Secondly... - me, my problem with the plan, I have no problem, I am with you. you say to win, to defeat them. my problem is that if that doesn't happen... we'll lose, we won't defeat them

This cannot be

Can't? but I have news for you...

Listen friends, in this land, for over 100 years, there exist 2 contradicting national aspirations. The left's fantasy, is that it is possible that they won't exactly contradict, but will rather divide the land and all will be fine. factually speaking, all throughout history...

yes

we, by the way, always agreed to compromise. we agreed not to finish the conflict {in our favor}. from the {UN's} division plan to Barak and Olmert, yes? each with their fantasies.

okay

The other side had always rejected it. when there are 2 contradicting national aspirations that fight all the time, there's blood {spilled} all of the time and that's bad and immoral for everybody. There is only one solution: to finish this conflict and it is that one of the side will lose hope on its hope and aspirations. I can't imagine that we'll give up

And you can imagine that they will give up.

I can imagine that

It worked up until now

I can imagine that they will give up in despair and will have to give up.

What did you say? that you want to make the arabs despair? If there is something that's dangerous for us it's a despaired arab.

No, no, I do not...

To despair them is not good

I certainly want to...

not good, a despaired arab is not a...

I certainly want to...

is not a dead arab (a pun on the extremeist call "a good arab is a dead arab" that Smotrich's supporters might call. Smotrich obviously didn't get the jab as his response is:)

I always knew...!

Oh! that a jewish heart...

I always knew that at the end of the day at the end of the day at the end of the day , the leftists are the least moral and the most racist, and that we are the ones who are more moral than all. We literally want that they will despair from the ability to fullfill their national hope, and by the way, then, then, and I must finish this move, at this moment, there will be a different hope for them for a good life, to enjoy the plentifulness and the progress, for, between us, what was here before we came?

Nothing, but knesset member Smotrich-

Swamps, maleria, we came, we brought here progress, technology, plentifullness, they all enjoy it, by the way, they have good lives, they don't have any realitve 360 degrees around, in no country, that has good lives, with rights and with democracy, such as they have here, even if they won't have the right to vote (What the fuck does democracy mean without the right to vote Smotrich? what are you talking about? you mishmashed 2 ideas!)

Do you understand that the CEO of your party...

And wait, wait, wait, why?

Had launched this week a plan for teaching 5 units (the best standart of high school) of english-

I am asking you, wait a minute, why

And It isn't relevant because in a moment nobody talks with us in this world?

why...

You are convincing me, and him-

We just were in Africa-

And yourself! but there is a world, there is reality!

You are convincing yourselves. The state of Israel is far from being isolated, the prime minister just returned from a week of elephant travels in africa

Of course, all of our friends in africa, ah? really my great friend is

We are connections... We are connections with the world, by the way, I want to tell you, if you haven't heard, that the republican party in the USA has removed its support in the 2 state solution-

It's Trump! You are hanging up your safety on Trump?

Very well may be-

Sir, in europe ugly phenomenons of antisemitism resurface, there is a financial boycott, there is an acacdemic boycott on Israel, it looks like Israel is doing nothing to fix that; I very much hope that we aren't counting on the mercy of heaven, because if you were embarressed that Bibi fell asleep in africa, wait and see what happenes to god in europe. what... will stand between us and all of that if I, god forbid, don't believe in g-od?

G-d

Not in him either.

First of all I want to tell you, that even if you don't believe in him he exists, and he loves you and cares for you. You know, to the arabs we say "no duties no rights", with him it isn't like that.

You mean to say that god belives in Lior?

Even when there are no duties, even when there are no duties, there are rights, he loves you, because you are a jew, you got fucked, that's first of all. second of all, he who looks at the process of Israel from holocaust to sovergnity in 68 years (the age of Israel in 2016), we did something here that no nation in the world has done. by the way, we and India and us got independence around the same time, they got it in '47

Okay, but what do they have? they have buddah, it's some kind of statue, come on

Wait, wait, wait, what is this, bro you are completly right. that's the reason that here, see what there is, and there when you go abroad, what do you take from home? toilet paper, right?

yes

that's the difference between us and india

Just don't call me "bro" and keep your hands off my sister. okay...

Are you just shitting on india right now? you just found a country and said "let's shit on them"? what is this thing? -They are still with us - these indians, no toilet paper

What we did here in 68 years... what we did here in 68 years is a bunch, and its obvious that is is, let's say, unnatural even, we don't need to be scared that we didn't finish the job in 68 years

you're right

A great place, there is a way to go

I know guys who finished the job in a week. - in much less, yeah- in one week! had created -Come on, let smotrich be a Prime Minister and he'd finish the job in a week - yeah- 68 years to built, how quickly can one destroy? it's like that- like that

You are trying to destroy for a while....

And then the discussion shifts to a different subject

I hope this helps?

[hero-israel]

Honestly, some times I think our mistake as Zionists was giving our ideology a name. Anti-Zionists get to claim that we have an ideology and they just oppose that ideology, and pretend that they don't have an ideology (which often includes assumptions about how the only proper residents of the Middle East are Arab or Muslim or both which subsequently doesn't get examined--just to be clear there are plenty of Anti-Zionists who aren't Arab Chauvinists or Islamists, but there are also plenty who are one or both). And "Zionism" is just easier to say than "Palestinian Nationalism", which just makes it easier to talk about (which makes it easier to talk about in ways that characterize it unfairly).

"Zionist" should be an obsolete and irrelevant word, like "abolitionist" or "suffragette." The debate is over, the goal achieved.

The word still has currency because it is so very crucial to the sense of identity for many, many people and groups that they must be superior to Jews, that they are held back and oppressed and conspired-against by Jews, so as soon as Jews started working towards ANY goal, that goal became evil and will be seen as evil forever. It's why you still see literate, college-educated Westerners talking about "the Jewish Question" (looking at you, Jordan Peterson fans) - a phrase that EVEN IF IT WEREN'T LINKED TO AN ACTUAL GENOCIDE is still straight out of 1790, was used by the same people who thought the evil humours that cause malaria could be cured by leeching.

When Jerry Falwell said women voting and working caused them to get abortions and become Satanic lesbians, I'm sorry to say he wasn't doing anything particularly strange. I used to think he was acting out in a manner of disgusting cruelty and stupidity particular to evangelical Christian fundies, but I now know he wasn't. He was just speaking the way reactionary conspiracists speak, and people like that are everywhere. They all have bafflegab code words about how advancements for the designated undergroup will destroy normal life unless righteously and violently suppressed.

I haven’t read the full thing. But kinda sad when the media gets it more so than her own fans…

We Wouldn’t Be Having This Conversation If Taylor Swift Was a Man

Publicity stunt or not, Swift can have a sleazeball summer if she damn well pleases.

ON THE FINAL night of Taylor Swift’s MetLife shows this weekend, 80,000 Swifties screamed in the swamps of New Jersey for over three hours. They wore outfits from every era — tinsel fringe dresses, serpent arm cuffs, and heart-shaped sunglasses. I saw countless faces in cowboy hats similar to the emoji — only these cowboys were sobbing uncontrollably while eating foot-long hotdogs. And the bracelets! They were all wearing beaded bracelets coded in Swiftian lyrics, trading them in the parking lot like Deadheads swapping grilled cheeses. (Take my advice: do not try to pay for the bracelets. They will look at you like you’re from outer space.) 

It’s hard to believe that while this magical Eras tour is happening — and while Swift is somehow reaching previously-unimaginable heights of popularity, surpassing even the ludicrous highs of 2015 — she is also experiencing a backlash from some corners of the Swiftie community over her supposed new boyfriend, the 1975’s Matt Healy. 

Their sentiments were best summed up in an open letter on Twitter using the hashtag #SpeakUpNow (named after Swift’s upcoming re-recording of her 2010 album), which states that Healy’s many controversies “deeply trouble” them. “From engaging in racist remarks, making offensive jokes, and admitting to watching degrading pornography in which people of color are being humiliated and assaulted, his actions contribute to the perpetuation of hate, stereotypes, and objectification, which targets and hurts some people from the Jewish, Black, Chinese, Hawaiian, Inuit, LGBTQ+ communities, as well as women.”

The statement refers to the derogatory comments Healy made about the rapper Ice Spice on The Adam Friedland Show podcast in February and the questionable apology he delivered onstage last month. Fans raised eyebrows when Swift recruited the rapper for her “Karma” remix last week, and on Monday, Healy finally addressed the controversy in a New Yorker profile that only exacerbated the issue. He explained that the whole thing “doesn’t actually matter” and that the backlash he received was merely virtue signaling: “It’s just people going, ‘Oh, there’s a bad thing over there, let me get as close to it as possible so you can see how good I am,’” he said. “And I kind of want them to do that, because they’re demonstrating something so base level.”

If you didn’t catch this quote aggregated on the internet about 137 times (you probably had better things to do than scroll Twitter and hustle children for their handmade bracelets), you aren’t missing much. This is all part of Healy’s artistry: an intricate, tangled web of bits intended to rile you up and piss you off. This is the guy who eats raw meat onstage, gives Nazi salutes, and delivers intelligent observations like, “I’m obsessed with my dick for some reason.” Stupid Shit is his brand. Are we really supposed to take anything he says seriously? 

I’m not here to answer that, but I am here to tell you that none of it is Taylor’s problem. For the last 17 years, we’ve held this woman responsible for the actions of men she chooses to spend time with, and it’s time to stop. It would be fair to criticize her for walking out of Electric Lady with the ghost of Pol Pot or wondering why her dad and Matt Lauer are grooving out to her performance of “22.” But this is just a hot sleazeball who wants Oasis back together (I don’t know about you, but I’ve dated a lot of guys who fit that description), and it’s up to Taylor to spend her time as she pleases.

I sometimes read anti Darkling posts for fun, just to see what reasons they have, and I saw a post that said that the Grisha ‘aren’t an allegory for oppressed minority’.

https://www.tumblr.com/wlwocprincess/710154380240994304/very-weird-how-that-mans-stans-act-like-the-show?source=share

Very weird how That Man’s Stans act like the show is “anti Grisha propaganda” and treat Grisha as an actual oppressed group of people that exist in real life in order to take it as face value as an allegory for real life oppression when there’s already tons of reasons to criticize oppression allegories that are “people with supernatural abilities that can kill people are the most oppressed group and are headlined by mostly white cishet able bodied characters that’s been done to death” therefore Leigh must be anti liberation for actual oppressed groups of people (and then proceed to talk over her as a Jewish disabled woman and insist that she “should know better” and make oppressed Grisha edits with Holocaust movie clips) when it’s established in the Grishaverse that real life oppressions still exist such as ableism, classism, racism (made an even bigger theme in the show), and xenophobia still exist within the universe alongside Grisha oppression but are treated very differently and a huge part of why that man’s philosophy doesn’t work is bc he’s privileged in every other way and therefore doesn’t care, in the show, he is even condescending towards Alina about it and undermines the racism and classism she’s been facing her whole life to prop up his goals and his point of view as a white man who’s never been in the body of an orphaned woman of color.

In short:

It's not oppression, because it's not real, and they could physically slaughter their enemies (if they're powerful enough), so they're obviously unbulliable.

LB is "Jewish disabled woman", therefore can do (or write) no wrong.

If you're "white", healthy etc. you cannot be oppressed.

The Darkling is somehow privileged... Not sure how...

Completely made up scenes that never happened in the show...

Realistic politics and nuance in a straightforward romance sprinkled with colour-coded racism?!

Not on MY WATCH!

Idk, why you bother reading that shit. At least this one isn't stupid enough to spam our tag... (Or I have her blocked...)

[ladyimaginarium]

reasons why the raveau family are jewish coded:

disclaimer: kohske hasn't officially confirmed anything as canon, these are just observations from a reconnecting native jew.

• Joel, Constance's grandmother, the name of "Joel" is a Jewish name — she's currently 76 years old and as GANGSTA. is set in 2011, she'd be born in 1935 which would be during the great depression. that means she'd have grown up around world war ii which would have started when she was only 4 years old.

• i& suspect that the raveau family are french jews specifically, notably with the navarin that joel makes, a french dish & constance wearing berets & the name raveau being french in origin, literally translating to "rebel". joel had a son, jill, who married a presumably goyische woman, brigitte, given her irish name ( although she could have converted ), and they had constance & as such i& suspect that connie was raised jewish by her father & paternal grandmother thus making her a patrilineal jew.

• although they aren't shown to have any specific religion, in the dub specifically, when joel's giving marco the callout post of the century, she calls him a putz or פאץ. this is actually a word meaning a stupid, foolish person from yiddish, a judeo-german, jewish language that's traditionally & historically spoken by ashkenazi jews that originated from central europe. before the holocaust / shoah, the worldwide peak was 11 million with the number of speakers in america & canada then totaling 150,000. 85% of the approximately 6 million jews who were murdered in the shoah were yiddish speakers. with all this in mind, this paints a sobering picture.

• so, when her son dies & his wife with him after helping the twilights & leaving constance as the only survivor of the family, she's devastated. but here's the thing. with all this in mind, i& can see that specifically Because they're jewish, they have a moral & legal obligation under jewish law by performing tzedakah or justice to do what is right & just & help the twilights, because even though they're normals aka regular human beings without any abilities & have normal privilege, as jews, they inherently know what it's like to suffer, be victims of discrimination & mass murder & to be former slaves so they couldn't leave the twilights, an already persecuted group of people, to suffer further. it's also another reason why the raveau family own a gunshop, so that they'd never be victims again or at the very least, not without a damn good fight.

• connie is an extremely devoted person with a lot of faith even in those who don't see that in themselves to the point where she married a former enemy, marco. he seems to perform teshuva which literally means repentance or returning in hebrew, which his sin in his case could only be atoned for the wrong made right. no, he wouldn't be able to bring her parents back or take away her trauma, but he would be there to protect her, and she gave him the grace to perform repentance and he was sincere in this because he desisted from his behaviour from the destroyers & reformed his character through an analysis of his sin, remorse, restitution & confession & asking for forgiveness several times— this wouldn't necessarily be removing everything he's done, she's just reached the conclusion that he no longer owed her anything for what he did so she offers him mechilah, forgoing the debt owed to her & selichah, forgiveness, by reaching a deeper understanding & empathy of him & his troubles. so, connie literally brings him closer to g-d.

[ashadowofburnedoutstardust]

It's still PR, and bad PR at that, and all of the trolling and BS that came with it, along with all of this / ah sorry, to be honest I dont really know what it is anymore. Sometimes I feel it is real with some trully shitty PR. However, I meant it for that I saw one of those blogs saying he HAS to marry her it is in the contract blablabla so I thought okay maybe they really get married and they just try to acam people as a last depressed attempt by knowing that.

to be honest, as soon as they rushed trough NYC on that stupid papwalk, I was out. I come back every once in a while to see what is going on, but I see the shitshow will literally never end.. at least it feels like it

Hello anon

I get what you mean now

I remember seeing the papwalk confirmation and throwing my phone across the room, I know of many people who did the same thing

Technically it is correct that you can't force someone to marry someone else, no contract can force that, that's still human trafficking

A last attempt? I can understand your feelings on that, but these scammers have been floating around for a long time during the entire shitshow

I once had people asking me if I was CandyLove in my DMs long before I ever made contact with the ACTUAL CandyLove myself, so these people have been running this stuff by my estimates at least a year

So many people have been hacked and threatened, and it's probably been the same group across multiple platforms doing the same things in order to scare off his supporters and anyone with legitimate information that could contradict the "Narrative" they were trying to use to discredit his reputation

The papwalk, lol, the park sprint, does he really look like he actually wants to be there?

Here's the thing I've come to realise about Christopher

He appreciates a double entendre and a good theme or two 🤓, he knows precisely what he's doing in regards to all of this I won't deny that but it got out of his control, everything he has done about this PR shitshow has been in some way to subtlely sabotage it and speak in "code" to those who could recognise it

Take the melty emoji comment, and the BuzzFeed posting the article with the real meanings of it, take his comment on Taika and Rita's scare video "I support this" two people in a relationship one of the a POC as well as Jewish after all of the questions about whether or not he cares about THAT girls past,

All of the things he has done in the last year as well as help from various news outlets have been to try and signal his TRUE feelings and what he does stand for while he's been trapped in trying to ride out this shitshow along with the rest of us, as well as trying to imply just how BS the situation was

I think him taking a break from social media is a signal of him regaining control of the situation but I hope people understand that ALL of this has probably been stressful for him as well on many levels, so as much as I miss the pics and videos of the goodest baby boy, I think he is genuinely taking a step back and a break to recoup and rest

I wish I still had the reading I did recently on this as it indicated as such but I don't have the notes anymore

I think Christopher will be back after he's taken care of a few things

💜🪽🌟

[keroascrazy]

I got a question for any of the Jumblr who follow me. I guess it's something of a discussion topic? Help me to better understand this.

I saw the post explaining that there is no such thing as a non antisemitic conspiracy theory and it got me thinking about media representation.

Specifically the stereotype of characters who are around money a lot. Not all merchants are codes Jewish, but almost all Jewish people in modern media are depicted as being highly concerned with their personal wealth.

And specifically I'm thinking about this capitalist character named Zeki from this free to play game Palia.

He is a wealthy merchant, and all of your early game experiences with him have him shilling his products to you, at one point he makes a joke about paying one of the towns folk kids in candy to dig up the worms he sells to fishrfolk. He'll ask you to spread flyers to people for his underground buisness. And while he claims his products aren't illegal, I get the feeling he's tax dodging.

Other than being a seedy merchant who always has an eye on his coin pouch, nothing else stands out about him. He's friendly enough but because he's putting on a good public face and that's just good for buisness.

I guess my question/issue here is that Zeki is the ONLY Grimalkin we get to personally encounter so far. So he's like... an ambassador for his race? Currently the players AFAIK can't leave the immediate area. So now we kind of have this unconscious expectation that Grimalkins are merchants. Whether intended or not, our only other experience with Grimalkins are secondhand stories and a series of journals from a Grimalkin pirate that you can find.

Not really sure what my point is here but with recent posts on my mind and understanding that people are still killing Jewish people for dumb shit like blood libel and stupid conspiracy theories its just led me to be a bit more critical of some character tropes?

I don't think Zeki's design is malicious,, but im a goyim trying to listen and learn and it just feels.... off that they made this one non elf character the proprietor of the general store with a seedy after dark, tax dodging buisness, who always is trying to sell you something....I mean it's not too far of a logic leap to imagine people making stereotypical jokes that he must be Jewish because he's a merchant?

Idk. Its probably just my internalized antisemitism materializing and making something out of nothing in an attempt to "be better"

When really I could be committing Jewish holidays to memory to make it easier to not bother them during family stuff.

[ace-hell]

Ok so i started castlevania a few days ago and here are my thoughts so far:

-gruesome, more than i expected, but its fine

- gosh i love trevor

-i absolutely LOVE trevor, sypha and alucards friendship. Priceless, there's bickering but not in a childish way its nice to see it

-alucard is a bebi

-hector is super autistic coded and he a bebi too i liek him

-it was understandable from the moment carmilla came in that she'd betray Dracula and all but SHE HIT HECTOR! AND THE WAY SHE TREATS HIM? that bitch

-draculas last moments understanding he is trying to kill his son and accepting his death was touching. I think he wanted to hug alucard one last time before trevor cut off his head

-it still fucks my brain how brainwashed and stupid people can be over an ideology and belief and when you understand its an ADULT? idk it still shocks me that the church actually treated people like that. Horrible

-i know i won't get it but im still having hopes in everything i see for even a small jewish representation

-hector gonna die isn't he right?

-can't get over the fact that deaculas last name is tepes(tepesh) which sounds like tipesh in hebrew and it means stupid. Lmfao for me his name is "vlad dracula stupid"

-sypha is a super cool character, stronk magician smart woman

- kinda wanted to see more of godbrand but eh i don't feel like i missed something

-ALUCADS LIL DOLLS OF TREVOR AND SYPHA!!! HOW HE MIMICS THEM!!! absolute bebi

-plz save hector #justiceforhector (i know he helped the genocide of humanity but how can you stay mad at him huh?)

That's it for now, started S3 let's see how it gets even more fucked up

Update:

-GOSH i fucking LOVE trevor hehe

-alucard is still a bebi yes yes

- SUMI AND TAKA???? SO ??? BEAUTIFUL???? I-wow

-why everyone whispering

-have confused feelings about lenore, she is a very cool, pretty and interesting character but i feel like she'll kill my baby hector

-btw hector is a sub confirmed

-hectors nudity was NOT something i was prepared for, much less than the gore

-istg isaac and that captain were flirting at one point

-the head of the priory is so fucking creepy like yes dude we get it, we see them, put them away. Where did he get all those eyes from. And disgusting as hell.

-"what the fÜCK is a toilet paper" had me dead, my favorite line yet.

- me at the beginning of S3ep9: "wow half of the main characters fight for their lives while the other half are fucking". Me at the end of S3ep9: "oh. Oh, well nevermind. I knew it will come to this"

- i just KNEW lenore will betray hector ay ay ay. For alucard less, but not mid fucking oy vey

Update 0.2:

-im still so mad about the whole ordealwith sumi and taka

-hector?? I have so many things to say and questions to ask. You go girl, ily.

-alucard is STILL a bebi.

- can't imagine his pain by seeing how someone takes rhe soul of your parents and just tortures tgem for their own needs, thinking they are doing something good. Horrible. Poor kid

-trevor????? TREVOR ???? trevor. T R E V O R ???????? TREVOR!!!!!! U CAN'T DIE NOO I LUV U PLZ DON'T DIE

-wow lenore's ending was... Disappointing i gotta say. She just didn't wanna sit in her castle all the time so she just went to the sun to burn.

-trevor is alive!!!! YIPPI !!!

-ain't no fucking way they revived dracula and lisa omg wth

-hector is alive!!! I was wrong about him!!! Good

[shouldhavebeenpersephone]

RECOMMENDATION ANON LISTEN UP I TOLD YOU I WOULD FORGET SOMETHING AND I DID

I hope you see this I feel stupid for overlooking these but here is the redemption post.

Disobedience - Now this is both a book and a movie and I would recommend you watch the movie first and then read the book, because the book is much better but the movie is also great. Rachel Weisz and Rachel McAdams play childhood best friends/exes (kind of, it's complicated) who grew up in an Orthodox Jewish community. While Weisz left, McAdams stayed behind, and they are reunited when Weisz's dad passes away. I have huge crushes on both of these women, I LOVE a semi-butch bi x semi-femme lesbian ship, and it has a sex scene that's just so wonderful it has to be mentioned. Please also read the book after, because there are some story aspects missing in the movie that really drive it home in the book.

Code Lyoko - French Sci-Fi Anime. It's so cool. A group of teens travel into virtual reality to fight a computer virus turned real life monster. It's so so so so cool. There is a tall goth girl, a pathetic lil guy with a crush (jock), another pathetic lil guy with a crush (nerd), the most character EVER with purple hair and a dog he illegally keeps in his dorm and he is nonbinary to me, and a girl stuck in virtual reality with cool powers. So many gorgeous interactions and friendships and relationships. Kids being kids, but also kids being forced to grow up, but also kids being grown ups. This to me is if The Locked Tomb was a secret-hero situation. I love this show so much.

Enjoy...

Essay: "Lovecraft, Sexist & Racist."

There's several reasons given for HPL's personal xenophobia¹ & sexism.

Even though Howard was very mature for his age, he was an insecure & solitary boy - with an overbearing mother.

As a man, Lovecraft was a product of a more overtly racist society.²

Due partly to his sheltered boyhood, Howard grew afraid of great many people.

For the most part, HPL considered only white Anglo-Saxons to be truly civilized folk.³

Everyone else was an inferior, to be hated & enslaved by their "betters."

Lovecraft (& many other racist white supremacists) thought that they were descended from Aryan 'stock.'

This was a pseudo-scientific belief that had many proponents at that time - but, no real hard evidence.⁴

Anyway, Howard's racism reached its peak⁵ during his marriage's breakup in Brooklyn, NYC.

And, from then on, HPL used his own fears to 'enrich' his horror novellas & poems.⁶

Now, Lovecraft - like any other human - had many personal convictions & some complex contradictions as well.

For one, Howard felt that Negroes were not only inferior beings - but, more beastial than even the (lower Asian) races⁷ were.

Yet, HPL waxed politely about an old black couple that he had created⁸...

Lovecraft praised "Birth of a Nation"⁹ & gushed that Hitler was his kind of person!¹⁰

Howard particularly hated Jewish folk.

Yet, HPL fell in love & ended up marrying a Russian Jewess!¹¹

Lovecraft also blamed all of America's problems on immigrants not being forced to learn English cultural mores.

Supposedly, these 'aliens' were taking American jobs & ruining the English language with their modern slangs...

All quite stupid - from our point of view.

Yet, we are told, the more that HPL traveled outside of his Providence, the more 'accepting'¹² he became of other folks.

One proof of this newer, less xeno- phobic Howard might be his final sci-fi story "In the Walls of Eryx."¹³

The doomed hero of this short tale comes to understand that humans should have left Venusians alone - to live out their alien lives in relative peace.

Sadly, it's then revealed that the other human explorers haven't learned any- thing that humanistic.

They think that the hero was crazy for his tolerant views!

And, because of the hero's death, the other humans want to no longer hold back!!

They prefer to commit a Venusian genocide instead...

Oops!

Your racial preference is still showing.

Footnotes:

1. Xenophobia is an exaggerated fear of foreigners.

This fear usually leads to hostility to- wards outsiders.

But, actually, anything that's different can be targeted by such bigots.

2. Jim Crow laws were Southern state & local legal codes that enforced racial Segregation for Whites & Blacks.

African-Americans were relegated to the status of 2nd class citizens, from 1874 until 1975!

The roots of these Jim Crow statutes started right after the end of the Civil War in 1865.

Basically, these racist laws forced African-Americans into indentured servitude & took away their right to vote.

Even their children could be seized to fill labor purposes.

So, it was just a 'new' kind of slavery.

The name "Jim Crow" itself, was a curse word used to describe Black folk.

3. This was probably the result of Lovecraft's closeted upbringing, his readings of English literature, his mom's own paranoia about Howard having friends & his own early school- mates.

Gods!

What a mess...

4. Originally, a term used to describe Indo-Iranians who spoke a related language.

With time, racist identified Aryan, "noble, educated" as the descendants of the Proto-Indo-Europeans & used it as a name of an early White race!

But, this doesn't change the fact that these people were actually early Asians...

Oops!!

Back to the drawing board, you basic hillbillies.

5. This coincided with Howard's story "Horror at Red Hook", which is 1 of his most overtly racist tales.

Lin Carter called it "literary vitriol."

Peter Cannon stated that "racism makes for a poor... horror story."

Even S.T. Joshi, an HPL defender, called out the tale's "horrendously bad" racist language!!

6. One can even call Lovecraft's best stories as a literature built up on the author's own xenophobia.

That doomed feeling that Howard's tales share with us, is nothing less than the Call of the Void, a common experience that seems suicidal.

7. Once, in very ancient times, there were quite a # of humanoid races.

But, most went (or, were 'helped' to go) extinct.

Even in HPL's time, there was only 1 human race left.

What racists actually meant by race, was what we now call ethnicity.

8. Perhaps, due to the fact that Love- craft could control the fictional couple's lives?

Howard once thought that any Blacks who weren't slaves should all become extinct!!

Later in life, HPL came to realize that living without disturbing others was a wiser choice.

That's what Lovecraft was trying to say in "The Walls of Eryx" - see later in the essay...

9. Also known as "Clansman", this 1915 D.W. Griffith silent film was actually banned - 1st in NYS, then in other states!!

The movie chronicles the murder of Abraham Lincoln & the relationship of 2 families - from the Civil War & into Reconstruction.

But, its reprehensible racist scenes describe Blacks as stupid, sexual beasts.

Worse, the KKK are there-in portrayed as heroes who preserve White values.

Though there were protests & the film was even banned in some cities, it still became 1 of the highest grossing movies of all time...

10. Howard thought that Hitler, though a "clown", was a someone that he "liked."

HPL soon changed his mind, when Hitler attacked his most cherished England!

11. Lovecraft married Sonia Greene despite his aunts' disapproval!!

They couple moved into her Brooklyn apartment that same night of March 3, 1924.

Sonia thought that Howard needed to leave Providence to flourish & actually supported him financially.

For HPL, the very cosmopolitan NYC would become a personal nightmare!

Mostly because of his intolerant racist views.

12. We must remember that Lovecraft never recanted his racism, never did write an apology for his hateful beliefs & only accepted foreigners if he thought that they had acclimatized to his own culture.

At the most, he just learned not to interfere in other's lives - which has its own good & bad sides...

13. This was a short story that Love- craft, as was usual for him, rewrote for K. Sterling.

Howard expanded a draft of some 6,000 words into the 12,000 word version that survives today.

Sterling was inspired by an invisible building in the Sahara, that he read about in E. Hamilton's "Monster God of Mamurth."

HPL seems to have used parts of his own 1915 article "Inferior Planet", some backstory notes for the planet Yekub (from the round robin work "Challenge From Beyond") & maybe even Olaf Stapleton's Last & 1st Men!

That tale was published in the Weird Tales August, 1926 issue.

Next: Part 2.

[gaykarstaagforever]

I work with this guy who is basically a real life Carl from Aqua Teen Hunger Force, at least in the sense of his totally inappropriate stories that he proudly tells anyone, and his frightening love of gambling (aka, losing money he cannot remotely afford to lose).

He's 62 and never been married because "I don't need a broad telling me what to do."

Sure. That's the reason.

Here are some quotes from his stories that I have collected, as accurately as I could remember them when I had the chance to write them down soon after, over the last 6 months. And I seriously don't know which may be jokes or are serious observations.

"...All that work, and all I got out of her was the Clap. But you gotta take the hit at some point, right? And the first time is always the worst."

"...So we picked up this broad at a gas station. She was like 300 lbs, and the more she talked, the more I wanted to throw her out of the car before we got off the highway. But my buddy was angling for her too and I wasn't about to give him the statisfaction. ...Turns out she wanted $25 to do anything. This was in the 90s. So we left her at the next truck stop. Probably dodged a bullet, honestly."

"...I only went to Canada that one time, and I got stuck so long at the border crossing that by the time I got up there, it was too late and I was too tired to even call any of the escorts on the list he gave me."

"...The Midwest? You mean West East Berlin? They pull you over in every town just to ask what you're doing. Have to unpack and repack the glove box six times in one stupid 4 hour trip."

"...No, they get a lot nicer to you the more you lose at the casino. Winning is what gets you kicked out."

"...I always limit myself when I'm playing poker. You don't want to end up doing something stupid. The most I ever lost in one night was $1600, fortunately." (Note: this guy just spent 6 months desperately trying to find an apartment near where we work, adjacent to a major city, for less than $700 a month).

"...The only good thing about Utah is that the women there think STD is a kind of motor oil."

"...All the best restaurants are the ones they're about to shut down for code violations. You know then that the people running it are only focused on one thing, and that's making good food. And maybe selling drugs out the back. You know, to make ends meet. But hey! Dessert!"

Also he's Jewish and loves Antisemitic jokes. I won't reprint those.

[thenewdeadseascrolls]

Judges 12: 11-15. "The Oak From Hell."

We know now the Jew is a specimen of the highest order, created and ordained by the God and gods of Israel to lead the world in search of its final configuration called Mashiach. Mashiach is a world that is able to invest in surplus of everything because it has finally agreed to divest itself of war and corruption.

Only Jews and Muslims push and push for a world such as this as a product of directed effort stipulated by the scriptures.

In the final frame of chapter 12, the Shoftim explains how Eretz Israel, the House of Israel is a House of Bread and War. The goal of Mashiach is a final war, one that liberates Israel and the Jew from slavery and oppression and then global peace without end for everyone as the spoils.

The structure is typical of the Torah and Tanakh, and employs Four Directions which introduce Elon and Abdon, "the oak from hell" two new Shoftim, aspects of the Tasty Jewish Shopper.

In general the Torah encourages individuality. Personal freedoms and Indepdendence from the state are the reasons we study Judaism in the first place. The Torah says so long as Jews are clones of each other along this all important principal, they are free to be who they want to be. Now the Shoftim says "All Jewish animals are equal but some are more equal than others."

The reason why is contained in the etymology of "The Oak from Hell in Aijalon":

"The root אלל ('alal) predominantly describes a protruding or sticking out. This may be positive (when one leads a collective), neutral (when one is a tree), or negative (when one fails convention). The latter sense in particular describes foolishness, or at least a failure to live up to cognitive standards or common codes of conduct.

Nouns אלון ('allon), אלה ('alla) and אלה ('elah) refer to oaks or terebinths but note the similarities with the demonstrative pronoun אלה ('elleh), "these," and אלה ('eloah) meaning god or God.

Nouns אליל ('elil) and אלול ('elul) mean worthlessness or a worthless thing (a thing that sticks out of the economy of useful things). Adjectives אויל ('ewil) and אולי ('ewili) mean foolish, and noun אולת ('iwwelet) means foolishness or folly. Noun אול ('ul) may mean belly or leading man.

Nouns אולם ('ulam) and אילם ('elam) mean porch. The former is identical to an adverb that means "however" or "but." Another adverb אולי ('ulay) means "perhaps."

Noun איל ('ayil), "protruder," refers in the Bible to a ram, a pillar, a chief and, yet again, a terebinth. Noun איל ('ayyal) means stag or deer — hence the panting deer of Psalm 42 also describes an ignoramus longing for instruction — and its feminine counterpart אילה ('ayyala) means doe.

The verb יאל (ya'al) means to be foolish, gullible or even simply compliant and pleased to go along in no particularly negative way."

Torah lore values a nice looking guy with a big bronze pole, so long as he knows how to use his mesmerizing glamor to lead other men to Mashiach. He can ride an ass, but he cannot be an ass. The inversion of this teaches subordinates not to choose a leader they cannot respect.

The proper choice is called Abdon son of Hillel, from Pirathon, "The torturer son of praise who steals God's glory". The Tanakh is outspoken about the fact man must eventually relate to God through the gloriousness of other men. It is obscene to walk through life praising God while stupid fat and ugly men shoot, stab, shell, burn, starve, torment and betray each other.

Nice looking men with pleasant temperaments, who are outspoken with Grace fulfill the Torah Prophecy and these are the ones we want to lead and fill the ranks of the Jewish People:

11 After him, Elon the Zebulunite led Israel ten years. 12 Then Elon died and was buried in Aijalon in the land of Zebulun.

13 After him, Abdon son of Hillel, from Pirathon, led Israel. 

14 He had forty sons and thirty grandsons, who rode on seventy donkeys. He led Israel eight years. 

15 Then Abdon son of Hillel died and was buried at Pirathon in Ephraim, in the hill country of the Amalekites.

The Values in Gematria are:

v. 11-12: Elon the Zebulunite led Israel ten years. A year is how long it takes to see evidence of an Office in the Torah. The Ten Decrees take Ten Torah Years to establish in society. We have no life and no future with a mankind that refuses to accept the decade long effort required to cement the Ten Decrees within our lives.

The Value in Gematria is 6149, ואדט‎‎‎, and edt, "the denomination" meaning this is the loot that lies in the North, what has yet to be discovered by man. Donald Trump, a foul and disgusting demon, for example does not follow the Decrees. He in fact, flaunts his violations of them as do his followers. They say "so what! Praise Jesus Christ!"

Donald Trump and the filth are the product of a willful system that rejects the Decrees. He is a perfect example of why the Glory of God remains hidden in mankind on this planet.

v. 13: After him, Abdon son of Hillel, from Pirathon, led Israel. Abdon, "the torturer" says "do not praise a fukchuk, give God his due instead." v. 13 represents the Eastern direction, "the awakening." WHY we need to discuss all the ways the Republicans and Mormons, the filth, have violated the Decrees and the laws of the land and wonder if someone is going to do something about them is beyond me but apparently we do.

The term Pirathon "piracy", the rescinding society back from a bunch of scoundrels is unfortunately what we need to do. And I swear to God you Republicans are going to pay for what you did to Ukraine and all this abortion shit. That's before you pay for what you did to Israel on October 7. For all of this, and renominating Donald Trump, I promise you, you are going to pay.

After the teen pregnancies and deaths because of your abortion bans, I think people should gather in DC, haul you out of your offices and drag you all behind pickup trucks acoss the city, in fact:

"The verb פרע (para') means to bundle without restriction. It may refer to the formation of a tribal confederacy (i.e. a freely joined alliance that benefits all participants), which might come about either spontaneous or via a human catalyst, who would then be known by the noun פרע (pera').

For lack of a better word, this noun is commonly translated with "leader" but it rather denotes someone who emphasizes voluntary participation and preserved autonomy rather than submission to some higher authority.

The noun פרע (pera') also describes a lock or bundle of otherwise freely moving hair such as a pony tail. The word for hair, namely שער (se'ar), additionally describes the cognitive quality of being familiar with or afraid of something. In that sense, loose hair signifies freely expressed feelings, bundled hair signifies free expressions concerning a particular topic, braided hair signifies synthetically crafted discourse, and bound and covered hair (by a turban or a hat) signifies restrained and unexpressed feelings.

In a negative sense, the verb פרע (para') may refer to getting out of control, or assuming a degree of freedom where a governed, disciplined or regulated state is preferred."

The Value in Gematria is 1402, אדאֶפֶס‎ב, ‎adapesb, "adapt to the ways of the Assembly."

Leadership must insist on conformity to the Grandfathers and Fathers of Israel, the 12 and the Seventy forefathers.

Together they form a series of offices called the Ephod, "the covering" that explain how individual Jewish persons should act in order to find themselves before they consider electives:

v. 14:  He had forty sons and thirty grandsons, who rode on seventy donkeys. He led Israel eight years. Years are episodes in life. If one is lucky to live forty years and then forty more, one should be able to act wiser as well as older. The process of making forty sons, or forty fruits of one actions and then behave as if one is a proper Jew, possessed of his own Jewish Self, takes Eight Years. Seven spent toiling over the curriculum contained in the Seven Days plus one more which is spent enjoying a trouble free life for the rest of one's time on earth.

A proper read of the Torah will divulge each object lesson is thoroughly explained in detail. The Seven Days, the Four Directions, the Ten Commandments, Ten Plagues, all of it is explained.

There is a complicated magic formula for how it works in Terumah, I have not figured out how to match it all but here it is, the "layout" for the Torah and how all of its verses and rules and lessons fit together in one "Tabernacle Torah".

The Parshiot are included based on their direction and materials.

15 “Make upright frames of acacia wood for the tabernacle. 16 Each frame is to be ten cubits long and a cubit and a half wide,[k] 17 with two projections set parallel to each other. Make all the frames of the tabernacle in this way. 18 Make twenty frames for the south side of the tabernacle 19 and make forty silver bases to go under them—two bases for each frame, one under each projection. 20 For the other side, the north side of the tabernacle, make twenty frames 21 and forty silver bases—two under each frame. 22 Make six frames for the far end, that is, the west end of the tabernacle, 23 and make two frames for the corners at the far end. 24 At these two corners they must be double from the bottom all the way to the top and fitted into a single ring; both shall be like that. 25 So there will be eight frames and sixteen silver bases—two under each frame.

26 “Also make crossbars of acacia wood: five for the frames on one side of the tabernacle, 27 five for those on the other side, and five for the frames on the west, at the far end of the tabernacle. 28 The center crossbar is to extend from end to end at the middle of the frames. 29 Overlay the frames with gold and make gold rings to hold the crossbars. Also overlay the crossbars with gold.

=the 54 Bars and Frames are the 54 Parshiot. Gold Bars and Gold Rings are all connected by the temple architecture by Torah Traditions.

If we look at each tract and calculate the Gematria, how to proceed should be straightforward:

ex. Make upright frames of acacia wood for the tabernacle. The Number is 2306, באג‎אֶפֶסו‎ ‎"Start where you left off."

 Each frame is to be ten cubits long and a cubit and a half wide. The Number is 2420, בדבאֶפֶס‎‎ ‎, in dafapes, "Understanding is the dove of truth," "there are no pages that are false or misrepresenting..."

Apes=

The verb ψευδω (pseudo) means to lie. The English "pseudo" mostly signifies surrogacy or a playful pretending, but is much milder than the original Greek idea of willful and malignant misrepresentation and deception with intent and purpose.

In the Bible only the earlier and more common form ψευδομαι (pseudomai) is used, but since the essence of the concept of truth is very hard to define (as famously demonstrated by Pontius Pilate: JOHN 18:38), the essence of lying is equally obscure. Still, even little children seem to naturally understand the difference between lying and telling the truth.

With two projections set parallel to each other. Make all the frames of the tabernacle in this way. The Number is 6361. "and so on until goa, the people form a calm nation."

Clearly every word in the Torah contains a hidden message from the Angels in the Host of Heaven. And they say the inent and purpose and source for the calm comes from the Gematria for the verse above. The Value in Gematria is 6154, ואהד‎, "and ahad" "and sympathize."

= Speak out against oppression happening against people that are not Jewish.

v. 15:  Then Abdon son of Hillel died and was buried at Pirathon in Ephraim, in the hill country of the Amalekites. Amelakites are "hand wringers" they work but are not happy. Jewish people and those around them must be happy or the Torah is an epic fail.

It is the job of the Oak from Hell to manage the Jewish community to this end...work, then Shabbat.

The Value in Gematria is 4149, דא‎‎דט‎, daedt, "know how to work the religion."

From Supportive to Critical: How Political Hollywood films changed drastically overtime.

Today, Hollywood is often seen as a very liberal industry where people aren’t afraid to speak out against America when it does something wrong. But in previous years it was more of the opposite. During World War II, Hollywood was under a strict mandate from the government to produce films that would aid the US war effort. This led to a vast wave of propaganda films being made to get the Americans to hate their foreign adversary, with two notable examples being The Great Dictator and Shadow of a Doubt. 

Shadow of a Doubt is a much more subtle example of propaganda. The film stars a young woman named Charlie who lives in a small town in California. Her life is then changed when her Uncle Charlie comes to visit her and her family. At first young Charlie is incredibly excited to see her uncle, but that all changes when she slowly finds out that her uncle is most likely a serial killer called "Merry Widow Murderer". While this film never mentions anything about a war or foreign adversary, the propagandistic message of this film is that America is being subverted by an outside force. This is represented by the character of Uncle Charlie, not only is he not native to the town young Charlie lives in, but he also says many things that show what a suspicious character would look like to the US government. At various points, he talks about how he distrusts US institutions like the banks, and he repeatedly comments on how he hates rich widows, he even calls them "fat, wheezing animals". It tells the American audience that the people who could be subversives are the ones that distrust the institutions of America and degrade others. Which brings to mind images of the Nazi’s as they were also critical of institutions like banks and of course degrade the Jewish population by treating them as less than human. The main theme of this film is summarized in an article by Steffen Hantke, where he writes “the film tells a powerful cautionary tale to wartime America about the enemy hiding in its midst” (Hantke). So, while Shadow of a Doubt doesn’t seem like a propaganda film at first, its message of America secretly being subverted by a foreign adversary make it fit right in with the films of the time.

The Great Dictator is a more obvious example of a propaganda film, but what makes it stand out from other films of its kind is that it's a comedy rather than a drama or thriller. It features an obvious parody of Adolf Hitler who makes comments like “Free speech is abhorrent”. As well as the Nazi soldiers being portrayed as stupid bullies. The propaganda in this film goes in the complete opposite direction of Shadow of a Doubt. Rather than trying to warn the audience of their foreign threat, it is saying that the ideas of the Nazi’s are completely ridiculous, and you would be a fool to believe in them. It comes as a stark contrast to previous Hollywood films as most of them didn’t overtly reference or criticize the internal politics of the time. But this was most likely due to the special codes that the government implemented on Hollywood to control what kind of content they were allowed to depict. A quote from The Journal of American History sheds light on why the US government saw this as important, by saying “The enemy was fascism. The enemy was not the Axis leadership nor all of the Axis-led peoples but fascist supporters anywhere, at home as well as abroad. "Any form of racial discrimination or religious intolerance, special privileges of any citizen are manifestations of Fascism, and should be exposed as such," (The Journal of American History). The US government saw fascism as such an existential threat to society that they wanted to make sure it was completely hated and ostracized by the American public. Even if that meant making questionable decisions that arguably violated the first amendment.

Nowadays the government doesn’t have that many strict codes on what films can and can’t depict and propaganda films are largely in the past. In fact, modern Hollywood has gone in the exact opposite direction, it very rarely releases films that comment on a certain international issue and is more likely to criticize America than its foreign adversaries. A more recent example would be the film Team America: World Police which is a parody film that was meant to criticize the US government’s decision to invade Iraq after the 911 terrorist attacks instead of making fun of terrorist groups like Al Qaeda. If this kind of film was made in the days of the WWII production codes, it would probably be deemed as anti-American propaganda and most likely not even released. A quote from The Journal of Social Relations shows the massive difference in political films made the past vs ones made from today, they say, “The movies reaffirmed political and social values of a free market economy in order to conserve social status quo: "A movie made for the purpose of changing attitudes about, say, American foreign policy or socialized medical care or monogamy would be a propaganda film" (Humboldt). In short, Hollywood's biggest change was that the propaganda films of the past were meant to make you more in favor of the US government’s actions. But the propaganda films of today are meant to make you more skeptical and critical of the US government’s actions.
