don't forget the nazis and communists were allies during ww2 and would've remained allies if hitler hadn't betrayed stalin. the two ideologies are not opposites.

[iamnmbr3]

for many people, especially those who suffered under the Soviet Union (or Soviet backed communist puppet regimes) or the descendants of those people, seeing a hammer and sickle on someone’s blog or t shirt can feel as bad as seeing a swastika. especially since many people in eastern Europe suffered under both the communists and the Nazis and were the victims of the Nazi-Soviet alliance. Not to mention the many Jews who had family murdered in Soviet pogroms and other family murdered by the Nazis.

I agree with the rest of the commentary but I don’t think people at either extreme are adopting their politics “because it’s trendy”.

The trendiness makes it more pervasive, which makes it easier to fall into echo chambers that validate those who believe it, and the algorithm is certainly part of the shape that takes now, but people tend to have actual internal reasons—even if they’re bad or fallacious ones or don’t actually make any sense when picked apart—why they consider their politics/beliefs are true or moral.

The popularity is the “how” not the “why”

[slyandthefamilybook]

Yeah, the idea that people fall down the alt-right/left pipeline "because it's trendy" is completely missing the point. It's about radicalization. It's about falling in with people who bombard you with existential fear, loathing, and despair. It's about people telling you you're special, that you're part of a small, select group of people who know what's really going on. It's about people insisting something has been stolen from you (usually by The Jews) and that you have to fight, scream, and, ultimately, kill, to get it back

I hate how we can't know how bad antisemitism has gotten in the 2020s because every organisation that was supposed to track antisemitism is too busy conflating antisemitism and antizionism

[rose-in-a-fisted-glove]

Ambulances are being blown up for being ran by Jews.

Synagogue attacks are at a modern high

Jewish politician's homes are being fire bombed for being Jewish

Jews are being gunned down at festivals even in countries with strict gun laws

Jews can't even take the subway in major cities without risking being harassed

But we can't tell how bad antisemitism is because of zionism? Come off it.

Antisemitism is bad enough now that the Golden Age is over and we're betting on how many years it will be until the next set of pogroms start.

[the-library-alcove]

Remember, it's not a Hate Crime if you shout "For Palestine!" first before murdering Jews for being Jewish. Then it's just "antizionism", which is apparently Not About Murdering Jews For Being Jewish. They just look the same. /s

[lord-squiggletits]

Here's an idea: the organizations made by Jews for Jews to track Jewish hate are the ones that get to decide what antisemitism is, and if they say that your precious emotional support "criticism of Israel" is actually antisemitism, you sit the fuck down and listen the same way you'd sit the fuck down if an LGBT watch group said something was queerphobic or the NAACP said something was racist/antiblack.

"I hate how we can't know how bad transphobia has gotten because every organization that was supposed to track LGBT hate crimes keeps equating being concerned about children being groomed into transitioning with actual transphobia" that's how you sound. Shut the absolute FUCK up OP

The last photo of mine of the former site of Dublin Hebrew Congregation, Terenure, Dublin, Ireland. This site was sold to developers and the synagogue is being demolished, and in its place housing is being built. This picture was taken on Fujicolor 200 35mm film using a Nikon F80 SLR and Nikkor 50mm f1.4G lens, and developed using Arista C-41 chemistry.

i think one of the worst things the left wing internet ever did was push the idea that oppression is basically a virtue, and being oppressed is a sign of your morality. it has made it like…impossible for some of you to hold the idea that most people are privileged in some ways and oppressed in others. AND a lot of you seem to have it in your mind that terrible people cannot be oppressed, and that oppressed people cannot do terrible things, which is a dangerous rhetoric to hold imo.

[wiisagi-maiingan]

Hi people who work janitorial positions, as housekeepers, as waste collectors, in factories, in construction, as mechanics, and all the other vitally important jobs that keep our society churning but that no one ever wants to talk about. I love you. I hope your employers and your unions are keeping you safe and that you're getting compensated fairly and getting benefits.

[spockwithacat]

Holy shit these people are incredibly privileged. Imagine doing this during an actual massacre and then bragging about it afterwards. You know this person likely never faced any danger in their entire life. It’s all one big joke to them.

antisemites r so dumb ong

[knight-of-skyloft]

Throwing firebombs at Jews gathering to raise awareness for the suffering of other Jews isn't antisemitism. Calling AIPAC "dark money" when it discloses its donors and saying it "turns us against each other" isn't antisemitic. Chanting "khaybar khaybar ya yahood" isn't antisemitic. Yelling "fucking Jew pricks" at random pedestrians isn't antisemitic. Shooting up a Chanukah party isn't antisemitic. Deliberately drawing on tropes about Jews and money and political influence for votes isn't antisemitic. Telling a Jewish American politician he serves "Israeli masters" isn't antisemitic. The only two antisemitic things that have happened in the last eighty years are Elon Musk's Nazi salute and Harry Potter Goblin. Wow! Incredible!

For Nowruz, the Persian New Year, enjoy these Torah Finials from Persia (now Iran), on view in Scenes from the Collection. The Star of David was a frequent motif in Iranian Jewish ceremonial art of the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
