When a straight man lashes out after dating or having sex with a trans woman, he is often afraid of the implication that his sexuality is joined to hers. When a gay man anxiously keeps trans women out of his activism or social circles, he is often fearful of their common stigma as feminine. And when a non-trans feminist claims she is erased by trans women’s access to a bathroom, she is often afraid that their shared vulnerability as feminized people will be magnified intolerably by trans women’s presence. In each case, trans misogyny displays a fear of interdependence and a refusal of solidarity. It is felt as a fear of proximity. Trans femininity is too sociable, too connected to everyone—too exuberant about stigmatized femininity—and many people fear the excess of trans femininity and sexuality getting too close. But sociability can never be confined or blamed on one person in a relationship; it’s impersonal, and it sticks to everyone. The defensive fear and projection built into trans misogyny, whether genuine or performed, is an attempt to wish away what it nonetheless recognizes: that trans femininity is an integral part of the social fabric. There will be no emancipation for anyone until we embrace trans femininity’s centrality and value.

yiddish theatre, yiddish newspapers and other yiddish cultural stuff was illegal in israel for years and actively discouraged and attempted to make obsolete, yiddish lectures were disrupted and the israeli state translated the testimonies of holocaust survivors to hebrew rather than keep them in yiddish (the language spoken by most jewish holocaust survivors) but tell me more about how israel and zionism are saving jews and making jewish cultural identity stronger rather than destroying and devaluing jewish diasporic culture 🤔
reminder that Jews from North Africa and West Asia also often spoke dialects of Judeo-Arabic as their first language and this is still heavily repressed by the Israeli state in an effort to distance Arab Jews from Palestinians and other non-Jewish Arabs
Moreover, only after the Yom Kippur war Israel allowed Holocaust survivors to openly speak about their experiences. Between 48’ and the 70’s, there was no support nor sympathy for Holocaust survivors. They were seen as weak, a “perfect example” for what a Jew or zionist shouldn’t be. The Holocaust survivors were just used as a reason to spread and justify the zionist ideology
also around 1/3 of holocaust survivors in israel live in poverty and israelis very vocally talk about how much they look down on holocaust survivors and diaspora jews
Several dozen impoverished elderly Israelis, among them Holocaust survivors, received food donations from a charity ahead of International H
fyi the sources for the two screenshots above are also articles worth reading in full:
poverty among holocaust survivors hits a nerve in israel, by emily harris for NPR on may 13, 2014
how the state of israel abuses holocaust survivors, by yardena schwartz for tablet mag on january 25, 2017
[image description for last reblog: two screenshots from articles.
screenshot 1, from the linked NPR article: “‘We saw the Holocaust survivors as a very weak population,’ says Nava Ein-Mor, who was born in Tel Aviv in 1945, the year World War II ended. ‘We were very different from them. We were strong, and we were not going to allow ourselves to be in that position.’”
screenshot 2, from the linked Tablet Mag article: “Echoing the accounts of other survivors, Roth said that when she arrived, Israelis treated Holocaust survivors as if what happened to them was somehow their fault. ‘I heard many times that we went like sheep to the slaughter,’ Roth told me. Yet, she continued, the Israeli government was happy to take money from teh German government for the suffering she and millions of others endured.”]

I need people to realize "gay men who barely consider themselves men except as a matter of convenience and sexual compatibility logistics" are not some niche esoteric Tumblr thing but a condition an unquantifiably vast portion of us share. Privilege discourse is good when you know what you're talking about, but many are so dogmatic about it they end up viewing men and women as different species and nonbinary people as a neatly delineated third species.
