Watch: The most wonderful moment of joy came when he entered a Nazi guard bungalow.
We are the last generation who can hear from these survivors directly. Do not take that lightly. Do not waste that opportunity. Do not forget your freedom isn’t infinitely guarenteed. And do not, do not, let it happen again.
Really truly, watch the video, reblog it. Teaching about the holocaust is so necessary for our generation before it slips under the rug and people forget about it.
It makes me SO. MAD. that people (and by people, I mean non-Jewish leftists) are acting like Jewish people are just suddenly noticing antisemitism, as if this were (a) some new thing, and/or (b) that Jews were just ~*~too privileged~*~ to have possibly noticed all the swastika graffiti, low-key (or not) neo-nazi signaling, and outright violence happening literally since the end of WWII until now. Like this is just the most obvious, oblivious, tone-deaf, hypocritical and – yep, privileged – kind of garbage and I’m so mad.
This is the attitude that I have seen way too often from too many so-called social justice oriented people and groups in response to finally noticing that Jewish people are talking about antisemitism. And okay first of all – even if this was actually new, like brand new – that should horrify you?? How is it ever okay to respond in this smug, callous, “I-told-you-so” way when a small ethnic/religious group is actively being threatened with not just any violence, but actual extermination??? But of course it’s not – this has been around for literally thousands of years and Jews have been speaking up about it and protecting each other and Jewish communities the whole time.
It’s honestly just a really ugly kind of projection, because this kind of antisemitism is new to THEM, because THEY haven’t been listening, and so because they were ignorant of it, it must not have existed before. Like, dude. Just because YOU assumed that the vast majority of Jewish people are like Jared Kushner or similar, and therefore totally ignored the last several years’ worth of increasing concern from Jewish people about the rising tide of antisemitism and impending fascism – a concern both justified and informed by history – doesn’t mean that Jewish people haven’t been here speaking up about this and taking action the whole time.
make sure your intersectional feminism includes jewish women
If you are a Jewish convert or a potential Jewish convert pls reblog this I’m going on a follow spree!
hi, i'm sorry if this has been asked but in your powerpoint you said that the tumblr sj community is guilty of antisemitism. what kind of things has it done? also, i love your blog!
I’ll take this one since I’m the blog’s resident Jew. Oy vey, where do I start…
SJ community loves to police Jewish identity and silence actual Jews when they talk about their own identities. This usually happens in context of either “Are Jews White?” or “Jewishness is just a religion” conversations. In reality, Jews are an ethnoreligious group that ethnically originated in the middle east, and while some ethnic Jews have light skin, it’s actually due to centuries of forced assimilation in European and Slavic countries through rape, which is a big reason why Jewishness is matrilineal. Furthermore, there exist Jews who do not look white at all. There are black, brown, and asian Jews who are all ethnically Jewish, and these conversations erase them.
“Jewish privilege”. Fact: It’s not a thing. It’s actually a very common anti-semitic trope that says that Jews run everything so they are not oppressed. Jews are oppressed, and face anti-semitic violence.
“Anti-semitism is not just about Jews, there are other semitic people.” While yea, there are other semitic people, the term “anti-semitism” was created by Germans in the 19th century to refer specifically to the hatred of Jews because it sounded more scientific.
Blaming anti-semitic violence in Europe on the actions of Israel. I see this literally every single day on this site, and it’s very upsetting. Jews that live in the diaspora are not responsible for Israel’s actions, and especially should not be suffering at the hands of white people in Europe under the guise of anti-zionism.
Finally, and this is a big pet peeve of mine. The only people I ever see reblogging posts about anti-semitism are other Jews. Even a lot of my non-Jewish followers will reblog posts about racism, sexism, homophobia, etc. but ignore posts about anti-semitism, and that as a Jew makes me feel unsafe.
That’s enough for now. If you’re interested in learning more about Jewish identity and anti-semitism, you are welcome to check out my personal blog: yochevedke. I discuss that stuff a lot.

Another Jew reblogging about anti-semitism. I’ve seen some increase in concern about this from goyim, but it’s been slow going. Hopefully we’ll pick up a big head of steam soon.
“The only people I ever see reblogging posts about anti-semitism are other Jews. Even a lot of my non-Jewish followers will reblog posts about racism, sexism, homophobia, etc. but ignore posts about anti-semitism, and that as a Jew makes me feel unsafe.”
the amount with which this point in particular resonates with me is unreal
The bold is especially important.
I don’t think I suffer a lot from anti-Semitism, and I certainly don’t face anything close to the degree of oppression that many of my peers have to face because of their gender and sexual identity and the color of their skin. That being said, The previous posters are absolutely right on all counts.
Again, The only people I ever see reblogging posts about anti-Semitism are other Jews, while many blogs I follow reblog every post under the sun relating to racism, sexism, and homophobia. This issue has on occasion made me feel pretty isolated, because I have seen a lot of people reblogging posts related to recents events in Gaza that reflected extremely anti-Israel points of view. There’s nothing wrong with that, people have every right to hold those opinions, and I even share some of them. However, as the original poster said, a lot of recent anti-Semitic violence in Europe stems from the the willingness of anti-Israel Europeans to hold Jews in the Diaspora responsible for the actions of the state of Israel. This is not ok. This is anti-Semitism, and this is part of what American Jews are seeing as anti-Semitic in what tumblr users say and do.
The average American Jew on tumblr doesn’t think “I support what Israel is doing in Gaza, and the horrible things people say about Israel are anti-Semitic attacks”.
The average American Jew on tumblr thinks “I don’t support what Israel is doing in Gaza, and even though there wasn’t a single popular protest in Europe over civilian deaths in Syria, Libya, or elsewhere in the Middle East caused government violence, but as soon as Israel did it Europe was outraged, and tumblr exploded with anti-Israel posts covering the protests and Israel’s actions.”
Fantastic points. Bravo everyone.
make no mistake: banning Jews from the dyke march is not about support for palestine. it’s about holding jews globally accountable for the actions of israel. which is antisemitic.
banning queer jews from safe queer spaces is antisemitic.
deciding whether a jew is “good” or “bad” based on interrogation about zionism is antisemitic.
leftists need to stop being f*#%ing antisemitic.
For all your Jewish-Pride needs. Reblog to make a goy angry :)
They really need to start specifying that “we” means straight white Christian men preferably from the Congress
He can’t even justify saying he meant Congressional Represenatives, because I didn’t hear a damn peep out of him when Rep. Gabby Giffords (D-AZ) was shot in the fucking head in 2011.

Hey just a reminder that if your reasoning for calling yourself pansexual is because it “includes trans people” then you’re transphobic

Happy Pride Month everyone!
There is a direct line between denying Hitler used chemicals and omitting Jews from Holocaust Remembrance Day and Bannon being in the White House and Roger Stone praising Holocaust deniers and Richard Spencer trying to pogrom in Montana. The alt-right believes Jews should not exist. They accomplish this by pushing Jews out of the narrative of history and by insisting that Jewish history never happened.
gentiles can reblog this too
Yo "Messianic Jews" aka Christians, Passover IS NOT FOR YOU. It is a Jewish holiday and you are not Jewish. It is not your history. It is not your story. It is not your holiday. Stop stealing our holidays and the pieces of of our culture that you like. Just STOP.
Okay here’s why gentiles celebrating Jewish holidays is fundamentally wrong
here are some of our holiday: passover (escaping slavery), channukkah (resisting assimilation under threat of genocide), purim (escaping genocide). See a pattern? Most of jewish history is about being punted around from place to place because no one wants us between pogroms, ghettoes and shtetls.
When you celebrate a Jewish holiday as a non-Jew, you take our history of suffering and turn it into your little party and then happily step out of it. You play dress up as a Jew with no care for the suffering of actual Jews, historical and modern.
Now this is ESPECIALLY bad when Christians do it. Lots of times it was Christians instigating pogroms, confining us to ghettoes and trying as hard as they could to destroy our cultures. You don’t get to profit off of 2,000 years of systematic destruction and then pretend you’re Jewish.
While we’re here. Messanic Jews ARENT jews.
a lot of the stuff I see about celebrating Jewish holidays (particularly passover) is that you all want to do what Jesus did. How ever, please consider:
1) Jesus was Jewish. He was born a Jew and died a Jew
2) you are not Jewish
Most Jewish families LOVE to share their holidays and culture. If you’re interested in learning, there are networks to help people find seders. But above all remember you are a guest. Eating someone else’s food in someone else’s house and having someone else’s culture graciously shared with you.
and if you REALLY need to celebrate Jewish holidays yourself, consider why and maybe look into conversion.
why this messianic jew hate
@spockoandjimjim no
And here’s where vermiciousyid and I have to seriously call your “I AM NOT A FUCKING XTIAN” into question.
spicer said this shit during passover. like don’t believe for a second he made an innocent mistake, that he wasn’t aware of what he was saying.
like this is explicitly antisemitic and he clearly doesn’t understand why
he straight up doesn’t believe that German Jews were people
“he never used them on fellow Germans” the implication that german jewish ppl were somehow “not truly german” was quite literally at the core of nazi ideology, this is so incredibly mind-numbingly transparent.
By saying that he never used chemical weapons on “fellow Germans” (sean spicer’s words, not mine) he is basically saying that Jews/Romanis/gays/every other group targeted in the Holocaust weren’t German. Which is what Hitler was literally saying. He was saying that those people (even if they were German and their families had lived in Germany since…ever) weren’t German. And Sean Spicer is repeating that hateful ideology. That’s what was most offensive to me about this entire chemical weapons/Hitler saga. Not that he got the facts wrong about Nazi use of chemical weapons. That he validated and repeated Nazi ideology. Fuck this guy and this entire anti-Semitic administration.
Non-Jews please reblog, we need your support
tfw you’ve spent four hours on youtube trying to find a specific melody to a jewish song or prayer
Zemirot Database is my go to source. Multiple tunes for each song or prayer (for example there are 26 recordings for Adon Olam).
