it's so bitter to watch how many people are only now realising that the censorship of "morally bad" things will never stop at just the things they personally find repulsive. the problem with morals is that they're not a fixed norm that everyone agrees on and that they're a very easy argument to be used by bigots against marginalised groups. that's why it's dangerous to call for censorship on moral grounds - whose morals exactly?

all you people campaigning for a boycott of ao3, wanting them to censor "bad" content, i am begging you to wake the fuck up and understand that for many people "bad" things include queer people's existence, any form of sexual content, minority-representation and criticism of the government.

don't open the door for them.

the brutality is incomparable. i don’t want to even acknowledge the details just released. this was done not by hamas, but by palestinian civilians. they strangled BABIES to death and threw rocks at them to stimulate an air strike. no trigger warnings. you don’t get that privilege. you all must read this and absorb this barbarity, for yarden bibas — for shiri, who is still missing. read it and understand the evil israel and the jewish people are up against.

doesn’t make me feel better but correction.

[shofarsogood]

I must not become the monster they believe me to be.

I must be compassionate even when others are not.

I must remember the humanity of others even if they treat us like animals.

I must keep giving humans human rights because rights are inalienable.

I must believe peace is possible.

I must not give into despair.

I must not give into despair.

I must not give into despair.

Hamas screams and screams and screams to everyone that will listen over and over that their primary goal is to kill all the Jews in the Middle East above EVERYTHING else and no one EVER listens and gentiles rewrite reality in front of our faces and call these people "freedom fighters" God all fucking mighty if you think people who repeatedly say they want to murder every Jew on the planet freedom fighters you are a fucking Neo Nazi and I'm so sick of pretending that you're not!!

[mieczyhale]

you cannot honestly call your tumblr a safe place for jewish people if:: *you hate zionists *you call for the death of zionists *you've supported hamas *you eat hamas propaganda for breakfast *you've spread blood libel *you celebrated october 7th *you cheer for the death of israelis *you're a holocaust denier *you've agreed with literal nazis *you want the destruction of the jewish homeland *you continue to be an ignorant shit who refuses to listen to a single actual jew

you are not safe

your tumblr is not safe

reblogging a post doesn't change that

it just makes you a liar pretending to be the good person you aren't

It would be very cool if people would stop using "Zionist" when they mean "Kahanist".

That would, of course, involve people having done a small amount of actual learning about the history of the region, conflict, the involved peoples, and understanding what Zionism actually means to Jews and Jewish history.

But, parroting shallow, wildly biased, black-and-white narratives they see on social media is a lot easier than that, so here we are.

in what world are these two things the same

[image id: the definitions of Zionism and Kahanism:

Zionism (countable, and uncountable, plural Zionism)

1. (Politics) Jewish nationalism, the movement which supported first the re-establishment of a Jewish homeland and now supports the continuation of a Jewish state in Israel.

Kahanism (uncountable)

1. A Jewish ideology based on the views of Rabbi Meir Kahan, holding that most Arabs living in Israel are enemies of Jews and Israel itself, and that a Jewish theocratic state, where non-jews have no voting rights, should be created.

THIS is what I mean when I say I'm a zionist thank you

I don't mean I want all Palestinians gone

It doesn't mean I want Palestinian citizens killed, or Palestinian cities bombed

It means that I want a place where Jews can be safe and live, someplace that would protect them like nowhere else in the world has done

That's all I want.

Minorities do not have to be perfect to deserve your support.

2. Your method of providing support for minorities should not amplify bigotry towards another minority.

^ Two statements that are both true.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

the only reason we talk about judaism as a “major world religion” is because the two largest religions in the world stole our shit and appropriated it to hell and back before ethnically cleansing us and making us ontologically evil according to the laws of their faith send tweet

Me on a date: so what do you think of communism?

Them: well, I think we haven’t tried real communism yet and hey mistakes happen and y’know the USSR had women on the frontlines in WW2 and all and–

Me, stuffing varenyky and breadsticks in my bag and getting up to leave: I’m sorry I have to go.

I resent the idea that Jews are the canary in the coal mine of fascism because the canary is supposed to die

I’ve been thinking about something I saw the other day, where a Jew online was discussing how they were extremely anti-Israel to the point that it sounded like they were arguing that the state of Israel should be dissolved. This has me really curious about why they believe that.

For me, when I think about a hypothetical future in which Jews no longer have access to Eretz Israel, I feel a deep pain. That feels tragic to me. I feel like it would be as if the Temple is being destroyed again. To not be able to visit our ancestors’ land, to not be able to touch the wall of our holiest place, to not be able to walk the paths of our patriarchs and matriarchs, would be a deep, gut-wrenching loss for me.

So I wonder why another diaspora Jew would disagree.

Is it that 1) they don’t feel connected to the land themselves or maybe 2) they are picturing an ideal scenario where Israel is dissolved but Jews can still live there or visit? Or is it something else completely?

I’m curious to know.

well when i had this phase a long time ago i was assimilated and so it was easy for me to think and say these types of things because at the time i didn’t care about any of it. it was easy for me to say israel must be dismantled because i had as much interest going there as i had for any other middle eastern country which is to say zero. the cherry on top was the fact that leftists have always hated israel and wanted it gone (hate the idea that it’s just far leftists because in my experience regular leftists were equally as insane about jews) and i have always been the sjw type.

the second one reminds me a bit of some other anti zionist jews i have encountered. there aren’t many religious and anti zionist jews but the very few i met throughout my life have this weird idea that we shouldn’t have control of the land and we should be at the mercy of palestinians. that way, 1) “israel can’t make it harder for jews” (the idea of blaming israel for the antisemitism we experience was so tempting at the time and convenient because then i’d never have to think about what my friends and peers and neighbors say about israel on the daily), 2) once we have no power people will “care” about us again and 3) having no country and being ruled by non jews will give us back our victim card (there’s some weird thing going on where jews fear having any sort of power at all because of the morally narcissistic need of wanting to be clean and pure).

the secular anti zionist jews do not care what happens to the jews in israel or our holy sites there. they have been brainwashed into thinking we don’t deserve any of that and we have no place in the middle east since we are all european colonizers which is very insane when you think about it. btw as a mizrahi jew i find this funny because this is supposed to be said in solidarity with palestinians and a part of their whole anti zionist and anti racist identity but there is nothing more self centered and racist. how dare you view all jews as white because you only know “white” jews? and make up your damn mind because you say this and then you go on and on about the “invention of mizrahim” quote by quote from al jazeera so which is it??? are we all white or are we MOSTLY white and our whiteness kills and oppresses non white jews who supposedly all hate israel. hmm.

basically they think the natural state of the middle east is to be muslim and therefore jews should never have our country or land. i used to think like this and then i woke up and realized that this is more colonizer than israel can ever be. we are in fact a minority of the middle east and anti zionism constantly says otherwise and even tries to state this as a fact “arabs and jews lived together in peace before zionism”. have you ever heard anything more colonizer than that? when has anyone ever lived in peace together? and how can a minority of the middle east ever live in peace with the majority? the majority will always oppress the minority…hello????

People like to portray Judaism as a "European" religion so here's all the love to the non-European Sephardic (Turkish, Latin American, North African, Middle Eastern, Hong Kong, Singapore, etc.), Mizrahim (Egyptian, Lebanese, Syrian, etc.), Teimanim, Maghrebim (Moroccan, Tunisian, Libyan, etc.), Beta Israel, Indian Jews (Cochin, Bene Menashe, Bene Israel, Paradesi, etc.), Jews of China (Kaifeng, Ningbo), Latino Jews, converts, Persians, Bukharians, Mountain Jews, and more.

Also f u you here's love to the Ashkenazim and the Krymchaks and the Georgian Jews and the Sephardim who settled in European lands after the expulsion and Italkim and more.
