#the jews are tired

[nimrochan]

Girl, you’re spewing so much BS you need to eat toilet paper.

Blaming Trump for the rise in antisemitism when he was elected two months ago - you’re joking, right?

https://www.usnews.com/news/world-report/articles/2024-10-07/report-antisemitic-incidents-reach-record-high-in-year-since-oct-7-attack

There are TONS of sources, you can google it. You can even ask any Jew, they’ll tell you personal experiences.

We lost 1/3rd of our population to genocide only three generations ago, and then suffered the worst terrorist attack since Israel’s inception, and the world’s response was to celebrate while Hezbollah and Hamas commenced to send us hundreds of rockets a DAY? And your response is “der der stop complaining.”

And even before that, Israel was/is the most terrorized country in the world behind Somalia (I don’t see you advocating for Somalia). It’s not a coincidence that the only Jewish country in the world is among the most terrorized. We’re also a minority in an Arab-majority region, unlike in the West where both are minorities. So yeah, sorry not sorry for vocalizing on our own behalf’s.

Have you had to run into bomb shelters multiple times a week? It must be sooooo nice forming your little stupid opinions in the safety of your rocket-free home. Why aren’t you demanding that Hamas stop sending rockets from civilian areas?!

If country A bombs country B, then country B is going to bomb back. Israel is not acting more evil than any other country prioritizing its own citizens.

You want to talk about shit that doesn’t make the news? Look up the Palestinian bus bombings and suicide bombings in the 90’s, and Palestinian stabbing in 2015.

Look up Palestinian indoctrination of children by UNWRA;

Look up Hamas torturing their own people;

“Oh but genocide”- the Gazan population literally grew FASTER than the world Jewish population, so no, there’s never been a genocide.

“Marginalized refugees-“ Palestinian leaders have been offered land 5 times, include one deal for 80% of Israel, and they said No because they don’t want to live next to Jews. Before the attack, Israel also offered citizenship to up to 2000 Palestinians a year, work visas for 150K Gazans (now ruined by those who used it to scope out areas for the attack), and food/water/electricity to Gaza.

“But since October 7” - the combatant-to-civilian ratio has been 1:1-1:2, incredibly low when you consider that the average ratio for a dense urban area is 1:9.

“But the bombings�� - the IDF goes out of its way to warn people before they bomb areas that have been made into military targets by Hamas for the purpose of attacking Israeli civilians.

Israel has never, since its inception, sent an unprovoked rocket or attacked first.

3000 Hamas killed 1200 civilians in ONE DAY. In over 400 days, the IDF has not violently killed that many people a day - that would add up to half a million. Except there aren’t 3000 IDF soldiers in Gaza, there are 300,000. You do the math.

You know what else Jews/the IDF haven’t done? Drive dead naked women around Israel to celebrations of music and candy with their kids, like Hamas did in Gaza on October 7;

Such brave resisters /s

“But COLONIZERS” - even if that were true, that’s not an excuse for terrorism. Entire countries like the US, Canada, and Australia are almost completely colonized. All of North Africa has been colonized by Arabs, you don’t see them launching terrorist attacks against Arabic nations.

You want to “What-About” me? You know what else doesn’t make the news? 2 million dead Sudanese - that’s the entire Gazan population. Where are your passionate, fervent marches for them?? Where’s your stupid fruit emoji for them??

1.8 million tortured/killed Chinese Uyghurs?

Millions of people tortured and killed in North Korean concentration camps the size of Rhode Island?

300,000 dead Syrians?

300,000 dead Yemenis?

The 600 unarmed villagers in West Africa gunned down by Al-Qaeda?

No Jews no news

Just admit that you’re jumping on the virtue-signaling bandwagon because you’re inherently a massive antisemite and you don’t actually care about marginalized groups.

an incomplete list of hate crimes in the past fourteen (14) days against jews not in Israel, in no particular order

A shul was defaced with swastikas (Minneapolis, US)

A shul was firebombed (Montreal, Canada)

An ATM dispensed antisemitic banknotes, complete with 'Fuck Jews' (Sydney, Australia)

Swastikas at public high schools (Virginia, US)

Antisemitic stickers at the Boston University Campus ("spreading" from Harvard)

More antisemitic grafitti (Indiana, US)

(or maybe 12) 5 antisemitic attacks in Zurich (Zurich, Switzerland)

(or 13) Swastika grafitti in Pittsburgh, where I live (Pittsburgh, US)

(or 14) A car burned and grafitti sprayed in another antisemitic attack in Australia (Australia)

(or 15) That Melbourne arson attack (Melbourne, Australia)

(or 16) Jordan Acker's home was vandalized (Michigan)

(or 17) The San Francisco Hillel was vandalized with antisemitic grafitti (San Francisco, US)

(or 18) An Israeli in California was wounded after someone DROVE A FREAKING CAR INTO THEM (California, US)

(or 19) Someone intentionally cut off the peyot of a Jewish boy in New Jersey, akin to ripping the hijab off a Muslim woman, only it takes a while for her to get another hijab (New Jersey, US)

Mind you, as far as I know, this was a relatively typical two weeks. Goodness knows there were many more that went unreported. And many of these were basically unreported in the non-Jewish news, because no one really pays attention unless it's something big, like arson. Imagine if some tailor destroyed the hijab of a Muslim girl after saying not to, as her mother begged for him to stop. National news, right? But if it's a Jew - no one cares.

But tell me more about how antisemitism isn't a big problem and I shouldn't worry again.

[kosher-toasty]

Honestly what pisses me off about the Wikipedia "can't say they're Jewish" thing is how insidiously one-sided it is.

Take, for example, these three famous Jews: Zsa Zsa Gabor, Kirk Douglas, and Danny Kaye. Excerpts from their Wikipedia pages are below.

Notice: "of Jewish ancestry," "embraced his Jewish heritage," "born... to Ukrainian-Jewish immigrants." Jewish, but not directly Jewish.

Compare now to right wing bigots Ben Shapiro, Laura Loomer, and Jacob Wohl. See if you can spot it.

"Is Jewish." "Is Jewish." "Is Jewish."

Why are the worst of us proudly labeled as Jews but the best of us begrudgingly associated with Jews, Wikipedia? What agenda do you have?

i am so unbelievably tired of nobody but jewish people caring about antisemitism

i know what people mean when they say “mourning a world they thought they lived in”

i thought i lived in a world where antisemitism was treated as terrible. where people cared about antisemitism as much as they cared about, say, sexism or homophobia or any other forms of racism

but they don’t. nobody fucking cares about the jews.

im so unbelievably tired of it. im tired of literal nazi propaganda and TEXTBOOK antisemitic caricatures, stereotypes, etc are regarded as normal. im tired of fully believing you could directly copy+ paste an excerpt from mein kampf on here and it would get hundreds or thousands of notes. im tired of being scared to post something like this because im scared ill lose my friends or people who follow me. i’m so scared to post this. i really really am.

the jews are fucking tired. the jews are exhausted

[gaelic-symphony]

You know, when Trump won in 2016, I was terrified, but I also felt like no matter how bad the government got, I would be safe and supported and welcomed by the broad coalition of left-leaning anti-Trump organizations and groups: feminist groups, queer community spaces, immigrant rights groups, abortion funds, environmental advocates, gun control advocates, etc. I thought the people in the loose alliance of leftists, liberals, and moderates who were outraged by Trump’s administration and the actions of Republicans were my allies and would stand up for me as a member of a vulnerable minority.

I don’t feel that way anymore. I’ve spent the past year watching leftists and “progressives” cheer on Islamist groups who call for the death of my people. I’ve watched groups who focused on specific issues of domestic policy completely unrelated to foreign wars embrace Palestine as an omnicause, forcing antizionism into spaces that have nothing to do with Israel and making them progressively more hostile to Jews.

This time, I feel very, very alone. Jews are 2% of the American population, and we can’t trust our government, our neighbors, or progressive organizations and movements to keep us safe—or even just not advocate for our deaths. We only have each other, and with Hashem’s help, we will keep each other safe and keep our communities and institutions and traditions alive until better times come along. Kol Yisrael aravim zeh ba’zeh.

Anyway, if anything I’ve said resonates with you at all, please consider donating to The Red Tent Fund, a new Jewish abortion support organization founded by a Jewish woman who was pushed out of the abortion fund she previously worked for when the organization started pushing antisemitic propaganda and refused to acknowledge sexual violence against Israeli women.

SPANISH COLONIALISM;

PORTUGUESE COLONIALISM;

ITALIAN COLONIALISM;

FRENCH COLONIALISM;

JAPANESE COLONIALISM;

ARABIC COLONIALISM;

AMERICAN COLONIALISM;

ISRAEL;

WOW. SUCH COLONY. VERY SETTLE.

WORDS HAVE MEANINGS. CAN WE STOP PRETENDING THIS WAS EVER ABOUT COLONIALISM?

THANK YOU FOR COMING TO MY TED TALK.

[spale-vosver]

How close are we to leftists saying "you know, if (((they))) got kicked out of 106 countries, it must have been for a reason..."

[kipotz]

Just saw an "antizionism" blog named after black september, the very organization that orchestrated the munich olympics shooting. With a very obviously antisemitic pfp of a magen david being stabbed. If there is one nazi at your rally you are at a nazi rally. How the fuck can these people still claim to not hate jews.

[queenwille]

if you’re jewish and you’re tired clap your hands

[a-very-tired-jew]

One of the worst parts of planning a wedding after October is asking "which of our potential guests is normal about Jews?" Having to literally sleuth through social medias is disheartening.

We've already written off about 20 people, one of which used to be a meta and was potential bf for my partner. To see someone you cared for and could have had a relationship with just openly call for the death of your people is gut wrenching. A lot of people don't actually know I'm Jewish because I'm secular and so is my partner. In every instance of removing someone from our lives we get a message asking why. We lay out all of the antisemitism that they expressed over the course of these months and in every. single. instance. we've gotten some version of "well I respect your opinion, but I disagree". These are Left queer progressive types who have openly stated over and over again that if you are not part of that minority group you do not get to tell them what is and isn't offensive. So yeah, it's not just online discourse Lefties or campus protesters. It's people you may know on a personal level and have many, many memories with. They've sacrificed everything they stood for because of antisemitism and hatred. I'm so very tired.

[sweetevanwilliams]

whenever something horrible is done to jews and israelis recently, i think "there's no way, this has gotta be a wake up call. some of these people will at LEAST denounce this thing being done in the name of 'activism', right?" but every time people will find some way to claim its justified resistance, or that the jews brought it on themselves and are being dishonest. without fail.

[weemietime]

Except that this is bullshit. Only 31% of Israel's total population is Ashkenazi Jewish, do you actually comprehend that? A majority of Israel is Mizrahi, which is Middle Eastern. Nothing to do with Europe, or imperialism, or whiteness. They're Middle Eastern Jews.

They're Levantine. We know this, because we use science, and our eyeballs, and archaeology and history, to determine this shit. You can lie and say some Jews are light-skinned which means they're white. Y'all turn around and praise the IRGC and call Iran an Arab country.

There are some Iranians who are 100% white, that's how light-skinned they are. You still would call them Persian, or Arab. You, your conception of whiteness, your racializing of Israel and the Middle East, is fundamentally fucking racist and purporting disgusting Nazi-era bullshit.

Jews are indigenous to Judea, or Israel. Ashkenazim too, they are also Levantine, which again we know because of Science. It isn't imperialism or colonialism or whatever bullshit you're espousing when the indigenous population of a land returns to their land. Most of Israel didn't even exist before Jewish immigration, most of it was uninhabited. Tel Aviv didn't exist before, Holon, Netanya, many other cities.

You have swallowed a bunch of IRGC and Russian propaganda and bullshit, and it's doubly ironic because you claim to oppose colonialism whilst parroting Russian anti-Western imperialism talking points (Antizionism, associating Zionism to imperialism, the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, all originated in Soviet Russia).

Russia, which is the largest mass of colonized land on PLANET EARTH. You people who claim you are Marxist, Leninist, Maoists, who whinge and moan about genocide and atrocity. Communist Russia has killed 61 million people since it's inception. Stalin directly killed 6 million people. Mao Zedong starved 80 million people to death.

And you want to lecture Jews about Israel. Get the fuck out.

My favorite podcast just disbanded.

From what I gather, taken with the largest possible grain of salt, the Jewish member of the group made a reference to finding a menorah after putting a lot of her judaica away. It was a nice moment for her.

It sounds like this brought on a big dogpile and the two other members of the podcast decried Israel, while the Jewish individual said “hey, maybe it’s not okay to demand this after I talked about a menorah.”

So now the two who aren’t Jewish, who I have always highly respected for their work toward anti racism in podcasting, are posting videos of themselves smashing things in rage rooms and vagueblogging.

These are married, adult people who had solid careers, who were willing to tank their successful show rather than listen to their life-long Jewish friend.

This is just one example of what is happening in the U.S. and how antisemitism is leaching into every element of our lives, but it feels like a good example of the everyday reality that we live with now.

“make auschwitz jewish again”

there are ACTUAL OUT AND PROUD NAZIS on this website. and literally nobody but the jews are talking about it.

let me repeat— there are people who think every jewish person or the majority of them deserve to DIE.

there are fucking nazis on this website

[gaelic-symphony]

[or-we-could-take-a-walk-together]

goyim: if i lived in 1930’s nazi germany, i would’ve never become a nazi, if anything i would’ve helped jews hide. i’d never fall for nazi conspiracy theories.

also goyim: jews zionists control the world and are responsible for every genocide to have ever happened, the jews zionists are no better than the nazis. the palestinians live in a ghetto open air prison. there are billions of jews zionists in the world and we must kill them all. but no i’m not antisemitic, just antizionist 😊.

[jewish-microwave-laser]

do you think if we all asked really nicely they would stop making movies about the holocaust
