Not going to lie, I dont think about what happens after we die. And its comforting in a way.
My Rabbi taught me, we have to trust in Hashem to take care of us when our bodies pass. That leaves me a feeling of peace. I trust Hashem with my soul, so when (hopefully at least a few decades from now) my time comes, I have no fear.
ooooojhhh i hate how Europeans think they're not just as racist as USAmericans, they have such a holier-than-thou attitude about it all. As if they don't have such harsh views about the Romani people. Or just as racist views against immigration as the US. Or a staunch hatred against Muslims. Or even a weird hatred against white Mediterraneans who are just a liiitttle tanner than an someone in Norway or some shit
you talk generally about anything remotely facist or racist and everyone is immediately like "yeah America is so scary! Trump is so dumb lol" NO stop it!! The UK government and news outlets are villanising and removing rights from disabled people DAILY. You post anything remotely close to complaining on your towns local Facebook page and at least half the comments will be talking about immigrants like they single handedly carved every pothole into our roads.
like yes America has big scary issues but as someone living in not America I'm fucking sick of everyone talking about it because it feels like we're using it to ignore our own decline.
It's deeply ironic how this post mentions every racism but the antisemitism. Finally getting around to naming the obvious when it comes to Europeans but there's just too much agreement with this part, so it Simply Can Not be said.
Suspects allegedly targeted Jewish federation, intimidated a witness and sprayed pro-Hamas graffiti on private homes
In one message, in May 2024, two of the defendants agreed to “kill,” “torment,” and “terrorize” their opponents and their families.
One of the suspects said a target’s “entire family” was on his “hit list,” that people “gotta die,” and another said the alleged conspirators should “get” the children of two targets.
A defendant who was a medical student, Ahmet Korkaya, said, “I’m gonna be the dirtiest fucking doctor ever. I’m gonna be [the victim’s] doctor. Poison her ass slowly.” Korkaya also said he would “drive my car into” one person’s homes.
It gets worse from there.
kol-haolam-hok fun fact! one of the defendants is the president of the UMich SJP, another is on the board of JVP, two work for the University, and the indictment implies that SJP may have bought the supplies for the attacks

This kind of shoe could be found in Jewish communities throughout the Eastern Mediterranean.
keeping the comment under Hen’s because please let the record show: “Gwynocide.” these ghouls do not actually care about this conflict. they’re just fueled by the high of hatred.

When a jew opens up about an experience of antisemitism, we are often met with people claiming we are lying, exaggerating, or falsely calling something antisemitic.
And all of that is literally just the same tropes we have faced for centuries.
We are seen as inherently shady and untrustful. That we are trying to lie about our lived experiences to manipulate the masses.
People will find a jew who is incorrectly calling something antisemitic and use that to dismiss the experiences of jews who is not that person. Often times they don't even need to do that. I have had posts of mine where I talk about antisemitism in general, and people will claim I'm upset because I saw a free Palestine poster. No Samantha, I was talking about being called a kike whilst being dicked down (consensually up until that point) by a woman I thought I could trust.
some of the discourse around noah wyle really demonstrates how people treat jewishness as simultaneously invisible and hypervisible depending on what rhetorical purpose they need it to serve
let me elaborate even though i didn’t want to: when the point is privilege, he’s just a rich white man. his jewishness disappears into whiteness, because acknowledging it would require people to think with a little more nuance about how jewish people can be perceived differently in different contexts. but the second people want to turn him into some kind of uniquely sinister figure, suddenly the language starts looking very familiar to me and to other jewish fans.
he’s “demonic”, he looks “satanic”, he’s secretly controlling everything behind the scenes. he’s allegedly harming actors he doesn’t like. he has this hidden power over the workplace, over the show, over people’s careers, over the rest of the writers, over the SHOWRUNNER. he will fire fellow cast members that piss him off or are “too progressive” to his liking. and whether people intend it or not, that is not neutral language when it is being aimed at a jewish man, because this is the thing: antisemitism is not just slurs and swastikas, and a lot of the time it works through older narrative patterns. the jew as secretly powerful, the jew as manipulative, the jew as corrupting, the jew as physically marked by evil. the jew as someone who tries to appear respectable in public while supposedly pulling the strings in private. those ideas have been around for a very long time, and they do not suddenly become harmless because the people saying them are in a fandom space and think they are just “criticizing a celebrity.”
and to be clear, this doesn’t mean ashkenazi jews are never white, or that jewish celebrities can’t have white privilege, class privilege, or industry power. the point is that jewishness does not always fit neatly into the sometimes flattened american white/non-white framework we’re all familiar with. ashkenazi jews can be perceived as white, move through the world with many of the advantages of whiteness, and still be racialized through antisemitism when the context shifts. that conditional quality matters. jewishness can be treated as irrelevant when people want to talk about privilege, then suddenly become legible through conspiratorial or dehumanizing tropes when people want to construct a jewish person as dangerous.
just like with every other minority, you do not have to personally believe you are being bigoted for the shape of your argument to fall into harmful patterns. and if your criticism of a jewish public figure keeps circling around secret control, behind-the-scenes manipulation, career destruction, satanic/demonic appearance, and moral contamination, then you should take another good fucking look at yourself.
thought of the day:
the only way to have a kosher cheeseburger with real meat and real cheese is with human meat
Echoing all the nuh uhs. But also, isn't the fetus of a pregnant schechted cow pareve?
I very much doubt it, the eggs of a properly killed chicken are fleischig.
Oh wait nvm I must have been thinking of the milk. Fetus is fleishig but permitted without shechita, and gid hanasheh and cheilev are also permitted, though not the blood.
Sorry @knaidelmaidel for falsely getting your pareve/pareve cheeseburger hopes up.
You should just make cheese from human milk. Way more normal.
to everyone who suggested human cheese: i hate it and i hope you live to regret the idea
You can't just leave this in the tags
What?! You could have very easily left that in the tags!! 😡
Guys! Friends! My fellow Jews! This is now helping the allegations!
I miss the time before I realized how stupid and/or hateful and/or easily manipulated most people seem to be, and I miss the time when someone voicing a progressive or supportive viewpoint made me feel trusting and at ease rather than afraid that they wouldnt extend that viewpoint to me
.
every time there’s a viral post about Magnus Hirschfeld that fails to mention he was jewish and nazi hatred of his work (and queerness as a whole) was a cause and effect of nazis blaming jews for any and all ‘degeneracy’ i want to Scream Yell Scream. you cannot should not separate what happened to him from that what do you mean ‘remember! they didn’t just hate jews they also-‘ HE WAS JEWISHHHH !!!! he was openly jewish and that’s a large part of why he was persecuted so heavily!!!! why are you leaving that out!!! he is not fodder for your ‘ugh those meanie jews are always so greedy and make the holocaust all about them 😠’ inversion

I’ve hardly posted any of my own art here, mostly just admired other people’s, so let’s change that :)
Here’s my Pride design from last year, including pomegranates (one of the Seven Species), the Magen David (one of the best known Jewish symbols and comes from the story of King David), chai (symbolizes the Jewish love of life), and rainbow challah (a bread eaten at Shabbat, sometimes breaded into different shapes for different holidays, that originates from Jewish diaspora communities in Eastern Europe). The oranges are queer-specific, often placed on the Seder plate at Passover to represent the full inclusion of LGBTQ and other often-overlooked Jews in Jewish life.
All of these designs (with contrast and spacing slightly adjusted for printing) are on my Redbubble and I’ve also now made it available as a sticker! That design (not pictured) is spaced much wider so the stickers/magnets print separately.
i know the ending of fiddler on the roof leaves room for SOME hope; hope that the scattered jews can find some happiness in their new homes, hope that they were all able to leave anatevka without being killed, and hope that our main lead will be going someplace that, for a time at least, will be friendly to jews.
but a part of my heart hurts so deeply by the end of it all too. i think about my own family, displaced from their homes for fear of violence against them. i think about how many of us have families who have gone through that exact scenario. i think of all of us, shuffling outside in the snow, hoping to catch a boat to safety. i think of how many were turned away.
i think about how, maybe soon, i might be in that same scenario. how many of our people are facing that same fate right now. and how many are not lucky enough to simply be displaced. how infuriating it is, that everyone else can navigate life without considering these things, because they know or believe they know that they won't be forced out of their homes. i think of whether or not i can save my judaica, or my cat, without putting myself in danger.
but most of all, i think about how many goyim will watch that ending and never consider any of this, because unless jews are dead, nobody bothers to talk or think about us at all.
I wish they would realize that universal healthcare doesn’t mean they HAVE to get healthcare through the state, just that it is there. You can still pay millions of dollars out of pocket for your own treatment at a private hospital.
America actually has terrible healthcare compared to a lot of nations with socialized medicine:
But you can see how powerful the ‘America is the greatest country on earth’ propaganda is in our schools.
We pay for Isreal to have better Healthcare than us.
for fucks sake you dont pay for our healthcare, we do
Israel: has good healthcare.
American leftists, who have been fed for years that America is supporting Israel and it's evil: the evil (((Zionists))) are stealing our healthcare! We pay for it!
Nazis: you're right, these filthy Jews are responsible for every illness in America.
American leftist: we fail to see any problem with that picture.
On another note,if anyone wants to see Jove's source:
The Best Healthcare in the World: Country Rankings
This site refers to at least three different measurements of healthcare quality, the USA sadly ranks low on all of them. Conversely, that still has nothing to do with Israel, and if we have decent healthcare I can promise you not a single dollar of American aid goes to that. Do you really think we'd want to have one of our most basic structures supported by a foreign power that can stop the aid whenever it wants? If you can't believe that this just makes no sense in any level, understand that it's not beneficial to Israel whatsoever if its healthcare is financed from outside.
Anyway, this article itself has further sources you can look into and see according to which factors each country is measured. A different metric than the one OP used has affordability and accessibility as significant parts of the measure, and expectedly the US health system isn't very high there either.
