*sighs heavily* it would be nice to have a day when every event on earth isn’t turned into this, but alas. seeing this start as a trickle of whining last night and become a deluge of rage today speaks to the place we’re in societally.
this isn’t about the wedding or the bride and groom or opinions about anything else. they simply had a handful of Jewish guests and a Jewish officiant, and that is drawing intense levels of hatred and scrutiny under the tattered veil of “antizionism.” it’s convenient that the guests being eviscerated for this are just Jews.
the underlying desire here is to stop Jews from existing in public. idc if that sounds dramatic, we’re seeing it constantly. pop culture is a wealthy microcosm, but this is no different than accosting Jews on the street because they’re wearing a kippah or banning the Star of David from Pride, no different from painting swastikas on Holocaust memorials. they do not believe that Jews should be able to comfortably exist, experience life, and be welcomed anywhere without being interrogated and forced to endure either litmus tests or slurs and dehumanization.
we saw this same commentary recently aimed at Jews who attended Knicks games. using hating on Jewish celebrities (for nothing more than being in public) to normalize it is part of the tactic to make that discrimination more palatable.
this ire at Adam Sandler and several of the other Jewish guests is the same ire that saw Scott Wiener harassed and thrown out of a Pride March despite his political record, the same ire that sees Jewish businesses vandalized, the same ire that firebombs synagogues, and ultimately the same ire that leads to Jews being hunted down on a beach or at a museum or at a music festival.
identify it. it’s all the same hatred.
white women in the us have had the right to vote for 106 years. that is such a middling number of generations back. my great-grandmother grew up during the great depression and like. i knew her. she was a person alive in my life. and she was part of the generation of my family that included the first women who grew up with the right to vote. isn't that crazy. i was born with the right to vote and so was my mom and grandma and great grandmother but not anyone else. that's as far back as it goes. 106 years. i'm always thinking about this these days i'm always thinking about how rights are much less entrenched in history than they seem . and this makes me incredibly unforgiving to passive misogyny. NOT funny DIDN'T laugh misogyny impacts every woman alive every day in one thousand ways . i hope that in fifty years or whatever someone asks me if [aspect of misogynistic culture] really used to be true because it sounds so crazy and egregious and would never happen in 207X. my point is i am getting meaner about misogyny and you should too because not only is it an extremely big deal but every feminist norm and right you've grown up with is so incredibly new.

The eye doctor is the most fun doctor you can go to. They never steal your blood. They never make you get naked and put on a paper dress. They're just like, "Can you see these letters? It's fine if you can't, we can fix that." And they don't even spell anything.
FALSE!! puff air in my eye >:(

I keep hearing “grace wears science pun shirts to break the ice with his students” “aww grace wears those shirts to make science more interesting to kids”. Bullshit dude, in all of the classroom scenes he’s wearing business casual. His dumbass science shirts are for the love of the game and nothing else

Schism? Schism today?
Wow, I didn't have "catholic schism" on my 2026 bingo card
Schism today
Actually, let me add some context
There are several groups of traditionalist Catholics that have been pissed since something called Vatican 2, which updated a bunch of practices and official positions, and one group of those is called The Society of Saint Pius X. Their leader was excommunicated in 1988 for making bishops (?) without permission.
Those bishops are now hella old, so they decided to make some more, and the pope said that was automatic excommunication. (excommunication matters both as a matter of theology (sacraments performed aren't valid) and economics (the church stops giving them money, can take back property, etc))
Pope said don't, and they did, and now: schism?????
Apparently they claim not to be sedevacantists ("pope's not valid"), but idek what else you would call this.
Article from the Vatican press office (calling them Lefebvrians is apparently itself a diss, as that is the name of the founder and emphasizes the cult of personality aspect)
Excellent bluesky thread liveblogging the consecration (must be logged in, I think? Screenshots are highlights)
Tl;dr, from the replies to that thread
once again i have to say that the letter from the vatican makes it very clear that this is a christian hate group. they explicitly reject vatican 2, a series of doctrines meant to update the church's relationship with its body and the rest of the world. When the letter says that SSSX is disagreeing with the church's "understanding of and relationship to judaism", they mean that SSSX believes the antisemitic myth that jews killed jesus and ought to be held responsible for it.
in my opinion, the catholic church does not get credit for this change in policy, as it was only made in 1962 after literal CENTURIES of jewish persecution and oppression. However this is not a "root for the underdog" situation- the schismers are an extremist conservatives and should be called as such.
They also believe that women belong pregnant in the home, and wearing trousers is "an assault upon woman's womanhood and so they represent a deep-lying revolt against the order willed by God." Also, they practice Holocaust denial, funding far right extremist political groups, and many higher order members have been taken to court for sexual abuse against multiple women and children. So yeah. Not the scrappy underdogs stickin' it to the boring old pope, as I've seen some people here trying to pass them off.
They want to Make Catholicism Great Again.
