so i'm leaving my tumblr up in case i need to find smth on it but i think i'm just gonna bounce. the cesspit in the notes on this post is the nail in the coffin and i'm just fucking done, i have better things to spend my time on than looking at rampant antisemitism that will clearly only keep growing like the untreated cancer that it is. fuck all of you, am yisrael chai
WIBTA for sending an Israeli psychosis inducing Tumblr asks?
🦞to find later
For context, I am Jewish. I am anti Zionist. Zionism is a colonial ideal that helps no one, and just puts genocide in our name now. Which sucks, because the British government are responsible for Israel existing.
Now, the situation: I see people making informational posts about Palestine, and I see someone replying with basically laughter. I go to their profile, they say "This is my vent blog, I'm just a tired Israeli and antizionists aren't welcome here, I'm psychotic". I am also psychotic, so I know just how deep some delusions go.
So, my immediate thought knowing this person is a colonizer who refuses to make a hard stance against zionism, is to send them "I'm in your walls waiting for you to sleep" I did not. I wanted to though, very bad. If I had done it, I wouldn't feel bad about it in the slightest even if this ask gets YTA as the 100% vote.
So, WIBTA?
WIBTA?

what the actual fuck is wrong with all of u. anon is an ableist asshole, everyone handwringing in the comments abt “but the person anon wants to target with ableist harassment is bad!” is an asshole, the person who wrote this comment is an asshole. i hate this website!!!!!!
The Queerest Place On The Internet.
I don't usually draw stuff, I'm sure someone else could have done this better than me, hell someone else might have had this idea already and done it or something similar. But I couldn't get this out of my head today.
I've seen so many of my friends, mutuals, and artists I follow on here get censored just for existing. For the crime of being openly transfem on this website. At best, many of them have had their blogs permanently marked explicit. At worst, some have had their accounts terminated completely with no hope of being restored.
Tumblr is the loudest and proudest LGBTQ+ website on the internet, as long as you don't dare bring up the T.
I'm not going to back down though. I'm going to continue being happy, being proud of myself and my friends. My loved ones. No matter what happens here, they can't take trans joy away from me.
I don't often make personal posts like this and I especially don't often tempt staff's itchy trigger finger for banning transfems, but this post is worth it. It's something that I needed to say.
[ID: A digital artwork. A trans flag is in the backdrop of a dimly-lit room, and in front of it, there is a a computer screen displaying the Tumblr logo and text that reads “Your account has been terminated.” end ID]
I have seen more blogs get terminated in real time in the two weeks since I posted this than I have in my entire time here up to this point. I'm exhausted.
Despite what they say, how much they claim to care, claim to be working on improving things, it's obvious all they want from us is silence.
Jewish woman’s neighbour, a christian pastor, was caught scrawling a (badly drawn) swastika on her doorstep package by cctv
Leah Grossman confronted her neighbor on Dec. 5th, seconds after video captured him leaning down and writing on her groceries.
Instead, Nakagawa said he was trying to educate Grossman about the history of it as a Buddhist symbol of love. He repeatedly insisted he did not know how Grossman would react toward the drawing. "The way I went about it, in hindsight, the way I went about it was not the right away to go about it. It was bad judgment on my part. I realize that," said Nakagawa.
Love how the article adds this "report" to the end as though it justifies or contextualizes what he said. As though his excuse wasn't a BLATANT lie.
The "I don't know what the symbol is" to "I was trying to educate HER" pipeline is not connected.
who is on the sex offender registry? pedophiles and rapists right? totally not the idiot 19 yo who pissed in the bushes at 2 in the morning. totally not the sex worker who slept with a client in a motel, not realizing that in some states that counts as 'in public'. sex workers in general, esp sw of color and transfem sex workers? totally not the teen who sent a nude to their partner not realizing that they just distributed child porn and their lover now had a copy of cp on their phone. totally not the trans person just existing too close to children in certain states. totally not the two men who had sex in the privacy of their own home in certain states. totally not the owner of the sex shop who didn't have their papers in order after having the cops called on them by a WASP. totally not black people, esp black sex workers, being accused of sexual deviancy for standing too close to a white person, because it's not like that died with jim crow. totally not queer people being affectionate in public in certain states. totally not the queer 18-year-old who had sex with their 17-year-old partner and had the cops called on them by the homophobic parent. nope. just pedos and rapists. this system totally isn't flawed and totally doesn't hurt innocent people, and if you critique it you totally love pedophiles. obviously
i get why people are saying reform the sex offender registry on this post but that's not the point. abolish it. it does nothing but hurt minorities and sex workers and the homeless, and that's by design. if the government can make a registry of sexual predators, all they need to do to punish the people they dont like is to define 'predator' in a way that benefits them.
if you decide to rb this post id prefer if you reblog it with the second addition. this was made in the context of abolition and i'd prefer it is spread around that way
Boiling Frogs; I Think Leftist Conversation Is Headed Towards Riots
YOU AREN'T AS NORMAL ABOUT JEWS AS YOU THOUGHT
You're Giving Me Deja Vu
I am so serious about my feeling that leftist excitement for violent and/or dehumanizing rhetoric, will soon lead to pogroms.
I don't know how to stress more strongly, and with more urgency, that in 2005 my country went from the GUARDIAN saying 'wogs are people Australians envy, because they have good jobs, food, houses and community... So much so that "wog" is a compliment now' ... To a multi-day pogrom, in the span of three months.
At a recent speaking event called Never Again Is Now, about rising antisemitism in Australia....
...a crowd of hundreds of supposedly progressive protesters chanted "stop killing kids stop killing kids stop killing kids stop killing kids stop killing kids stop killing kids ..." while my Rabbi spoke about how our synagogue used to welcome visitors, but now out of necessity we have taken down our sign and we keep our gates closed. How out of necessity we gather protected by high fences, dozens of cameras, and we have a security guard at the gate. About how schools are advising that they can't guarantee our children's safety, while parents are advising children not to disclose that they are Jewish even to their friends.
People carried signs with slogans like "It's Clean Up Australia Day" with an image of putting a Magen David in a wire rubbish bin, and "from the river to the Bloody sea" (sign holders capitalisation).
I live in one of the smallest and most isolated Jewish communities in the world. We are 0.066% of the population in this city, and we are over 13000km/8000miles away from Israel or Palestine, but we have people screaming at our community leaders that they are killing children and we have people scrawling Free Palestine on our Gates and (the incident that made us take it down) on our synagogue sign.
I saw people in the crowd arrayed in opposition to our request to listen to concerns about the dramatic rise in antisemitism who have been in my home, and that I have made meals for. I have steadily lost basically all of my goyische friends after the Simchat Torah Pogrom because I fail their purity testing.
I will never stop fighting for the causes I've believed in and fought for for years, I will never stop fighting for the dignity of everyone.... But I won't ever trust that the total committed support goes both ways ever again
In the words of our fathers, I am not free to abandon my work.
literally what is the point in engaging with people who gave fallen in so deep with the death cult that they glorify a self-immolation? I tell myself it's not for that specific person, but rather for the person on the fence who might be reading the interactions. but the effort is not worth it anymore. i don't think those fence sitters are around. and there is something uniquely soul-destroying about interacting with people who go around calling Bushnell "the boy with his heart on fire" (yes, really) and drawing fan art of his suicide while also claiming he was a "well-adjusted young man".
it's just a fandom to them. it's a game. it's their hunger games fantasy. you cannot reason with someone who has made being "morally right" their entire personality, especially when they won't even admit suicide ideation is a concerning thing. they don't care about Gaza. they just want an emotional high from a war they can divide neatly into Good Noble Savage Metaphor vs Evil White Colonial Metaphor to sate their own white guilt after years of internalising that self-hatred.
idk where I'm going with this rant lol. rip to the leftists for joining a death cult, I guess. I'm done engaging with them.
also it makes me sad that so many supposed leftists think the answer to 'there is an imbalance in who suffers and who doesn't" is "redistribute the suffering to the people I don't like", not "try to make it so no one has to suffer"
It's extremely punitive-justice oriented but they'd have a ragefit if you told them how carceral their logic is
Just so everyone knows, this is about leftist antisemitism.
I don't have the brainpower to go through and block every chump who reblogged this post in the middle of all their rabid Jew-hatred and blood libel, but I want it to be EXTREMELY CLEAR that I DO NOT endorse violent bigotry EVER.
And frankly I'm disgusted that so many of us gleefully abandoned all our principles the second we had a chance to be horrible to Jews.
once again for the people reblogging this in the middle of your blood libel:
YOU ARE WHO THIS POST IS TALKING ABOUT.
https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/un-team-says-rape-gang-rape-likely-occurred-during-hamas-attack-israel-2024-03-04/
(I don’t know why tumblr won’t let me format the link properly, so I also included a screenshot of the headline)
We all saw evidence of Hamas committing rape literally on the day of the massacre, and antisemites have been pretending it didn’t happen ever since because they decided to die on the dumbest hill imaginable of defending rapist terrorists. This won’t change their minds, but this must be documented and not lost to history, though the full extent of what happened might not be known for some time (and given how hard it is to collect evidence of sexual violence, being unable to verify a specific claim doesn’t automatically equal disproving the claim, either). Edit: oh yeah, they believe the hostages still being held have been sexually assaulted, too
The report also says they received evidence of sexual violence against Palestinians in detention centers in Israel. Those claims must also be taken seriously. There should be justice for all rape victims. All sexual violence is bad and every person who defends it is a bad person.
All sexual violence is bad and every person who defends it is a bad person.
thank you neuroticjewishgay lmao
I've been finding a lot of job postings that ask me for a photo lately, which is uncool of them.
So I made an image which lets me bypass their demand. I don't care if I get that particular job, I just want to shame the HR goons who thought the photo requirement was a good idea.
Note: this only applies in the USA.
Took me a bit to figure out the implications: this image can be downloaded from here and uploaded whenever a job application asks for an image. Clever!
That's the hope! Save this image and upload to job applications that "require" a photo
I’m not currently looking for a job, but I’m saving this in case any of my friends are.
Thanks, OP, you’re the GOAT.
Ok fuck you. enslaved people didn’t kill themselves to reduce profits they killed themselves because death was preferable to slavery what kind of revisionist ass bullshit…
#occams RAZOR people#not Occams Textbook on Marxism#also Aaron Bushnell -an active duty airman- killing himself is not the same as enslaved people throwing themselves overboard#A-aron had no skin in the game and could have gone on with his life#slaves… could not do that#you people are batshit just kooky bananas

Awh, I always thought they were so pretty and had no idea they could be harmful
Can someone transcribe this? The water is really loud.
“Hey everybody! Here we are in the southern Appalachian mountains. We have a pristine Montane stream ecosystem, as you can see all around us here. I thought I’d make an educational video this morning. It involves this practice right here [gestures to rock pile]. As our national parks and national forests fall victim to human pressure, more than ever, this is something we’re seeing more and more of. Hopefully we can make this video go viral. This stream, as you can see around us right here, is a breeding ground for North America’s largest salamander, the Eastern hellbender. They can get up to 2.5-3 feet long. It’s part of our natural heritage in the eastern United States. When people do this right here - what they consider to be art - they’re actually destroying the breeding ground for the Eastern hellbender salamander. The Eastern hellbender will use flat rocks such as these to make nesting sites in these streams. So here’s what I would like everybody to do. If you care about our Montane stream freshwater ecosystems like this one around us here, when you see something like this, this is what I recommend doing: [kicks down rock pile]. Take the rocks, throw them back into the stream. The Eastern hellbender utilizes rocks like this. It actually feels pretty good to do this! [walks to other pile] This is not actually art, okay? This is destruction of our freshwater ecosystems. So I would like to encourage everyone: when you see this [gestures to second rock pile], do this! [kicks pile] I’d like to return our streams to their natural state for the organisms that live here. Thanks, and have a good day.”
PSA from a forest ranger who is instructed to knock these down:
Not only are they harmful for river/stream habits, they can cause hikers to get lost! Cairns are meant to represent the correct path for a trail. We’ve had hikers get lost by following incorrect paths marked by cairns people set up “for fun/art.” Not only do we want hikers to get lost, we want them to stay on the correct path for erosion control and ecosystem protection. Cairn-building “for fun/art” has gained a lot of popularity in recent years, so we keep finding more and more to knock over.
If you want to set up a cairn “for fun/art,” do it in a dry, very rocky area. Don’t take rocks from rivers or streams! But when it’s a bedrock site and there’s lots of rocks sitting around? Sure, fine, whatever. But please please PLEASE knock them down after! Don’t be the reason we have to deploy Search & Rescue for a lost hiker!
Reminder that you are not immune to propoganda
