Most of the world is actually more racist than the US. Racial homogeneity is a demon that's fighting hard to maintain its status quo.

China doesn't have birthright citizenship and ethnic minorities make up approximately 8.89% of the population. They don't even do refugees!

yeah, it's kind of insane actually. i think that because the united states has been very visibly multiracial (whether or not members of each of those races actually had rights/citizenship) since the start of its history, racism is a much more frequently and deeply considered topic of discussion here, which gives the mistaken impression that the united states is overall more racist than other countries.

We are actually having the fucking conversation. CONSTANTLY. The cute little Euro Scandi countries idiots here like to jerk off about don't talk about it until it bubbles up and they have riots and shit that seem to come out of nowhere because they don't fucking talk about it. Especially when they have Acceptable Scapegoats.

What to know about the stabbing that set off fiery riots in Northern Ireland

A savage knife attack on a Northern Ireland street set off two nights of fiery riots stoked by anti-migrant rhetoric.

The only reason jumblr is going after Mamdani so hard for his antisemitism is because he’s a Muslim man. I’m not denying he’s antisemitic, but so is everyone fucking else in US politics. So is basically every fuckin goy in the world. Like racism, antisemitism is built into the foundations of society and, if you grow up in a non-Jewish society, you WILL internalize fucked up shit abt Jews. These unconscious ideas lead to the lowering in estimation of Jewish opinion and value, and also lead to overlooking antisemitism because it’s such a deep part of the status quo. Yea, Mamdani repeats antisemitic dogwhistles and supports the status quo of the world irt Jews, and he’s. WHO THE FUCK DOESN’T?? Y’all are NOT calling out white democrat christians (cultural or otherwise) w this same fervor and we know the reason. Be honest with yourselves.

[rose-in-a-fisted-glove]

Ah yes,

Nothing to do with him being Mayor of one of the largest Jewish communities of the world.

Nothing to do with him agreeing with anti-Jew protestors

Nothing to do with antisemitism being so high

Nothing to do with being scared for our loved ones

Nothing to do with not trusting someone who uses not just dogwhistles but full on rhetoric from the 30s.

And nevermind all the commentary and protest that people like Platner get. It isn't happening. Every Jewish person embraced Platner and doesn't speak against his ilk.

Its because of his religion that most of the posts never mention, if the posters even know about it in the first place.

Are you sure the people commenting against Mamdani are the ones not being honest with themselves?

ok but this unironically works. talk about how the working class is exploited and you can basically sell full-on marxism to your average republican if you do it right. all you have to do is avoid the words "Marx," "capitalism," "socialism," "communism," "means of production," etc - just use synonyms. say "big business" or "corporate shareholder interests" instead of "capitalists." say "a government that prioritizes the needs of the working people" instead of "socialism." it WORKS. I've DONE it. the hardest sell are usually things like social and racial equity, welfare, things like that, because people have been primed with the racist/classist idea that those things are somehow unfair - but you can get your foot in the door to getting them to buy into those too if you start with class issues. read up on your theory, make sure you REALLY understand your own ideology, because that will enable you to reword it and successfully sell it.

[still-searching-for-something]

Yes, this is a common tactic extremist groups and hate groups use to radicalize people. Lying about what you believe to deceive others and acclimate them to radicalism is like, extremism 101. Islamists, KKK members, groypers, fascists, Nazis, cultists, Scientologists, NOI and Stalinists all use this tactic. Appreciate the honesty about your ideological company and who you get your inspirations from.

Really loving this whitewashing of the Free Palestine activists who were in the streets celebrating on 10/8. Everyone remembers how y'all were cheering when Israeli men, women, and children were being raped and burned alive, when Thai farm workers were getting the heads chopped off with shovels, when African students were getting their heads plugged with bullets.

You were all out and proud and cheering on 10/8. You were saying "This is what decolonization looks like." Where's that pride now? Why are you suddenly getting shy when your posts and videos are being played back to you?

[ichooseyoupikajew]

God, I’ll never forget how proudly some pro-Palestine activists were tweeting about how happy they were watching videos of the carnage.

Go bomb a preschool

I can't, I'm too busy controlling the weather

[still-searching-for-something]

Did that this morning, it gets old after awhile. Plus my doctor told me to stop—it messes with my cholesterol, so I’m on a strict no bombing preschools diet starting today.

Labubus are also not kosher! They appear to be vaguely mammalian? But they have no cloven hooves, and as they lack a digestive track, they don’t chew their cud.

[still-searching-for-something]

I’m a little curious who’s out here eating labubus but upon further reflection I’ve decided I don’t want to know

At a time where jewish groups are being banned from pride events, you do not get to use Anne Franke, a dead jew murdered for being jewish before she could ever come out, as a puppet for whatever queer rights message you want to share.

You do not get to profit, financially or attention wise or another way, off of a *potentially* queer jew whilst we are banned from pride events.

We do not know if she was questioning her sexuality but ultimately straight or if she was actually queer because she was killed for the crime of existing as a jew before she could come out. Queer rights obviously matter. Anne Franke is not the person you should be using.

You need to protect alive queer jews. You need to love all jews, not just the dead ones.

[xclowniex2]

I've had to delete multiple comments missing the point of the post

"But they banned zionists not jews", they banned jewish organizations, who refused to say they disavowed israel. That's like asking a local Chinese diaspora group to disavow the CCP or they can't be at pride.

The reason why its antisemitic is because its treating jewish organizations as guilty until proven innocent. Its treating jewish organizations as somehow being responsible for a foreign government's actions. Jewish organizations have to say again and again that they do not support the Israeli government to be allowed to exist in public. Its an extra step that non jewish organizations do not face. That's the antisemitism of it all. No other group was forced to disavow israel to attend pride.

[transsexualpuffin]

is it “zionist bullshit” or is it content acknowledging that there has been an alarming rise in antisemitism world wide over the last few years

[bedabug]

truly the most american thing is Big Drink. more than late stage capitalism, more than an unparalleled cultural focus on individualism, more than 9/11 jokes

what binds all americans together culturally is Big Drink

and you might be saying "is this fat shaming" or "but mayor bloomberg outlawed Big Drink in nyc" or "gays are so annoying about their iced coffee" or some other dumb comment but no open your minds, Big Drink isn't just sugary or caffeinated beverages

every day i see one of you hydration bitches (affectionate) on the train with a water bottle so big a toddler could drown in it. that too is Big Drink. we literally invented a bigger beer can (tall boy) in wisconsin in the 60s in the service of Big Drink

anyway i never feel more american then when i have Big Drink in my hands

It is genuinely absurd that Israel is able to officially recognise ten different Christian denominations but only one Jewish denomination. So much of the discourse around how non-orthodox converts and patrilineal Jews are viewed would be much less of an issue if Israel didn't insist on putting orthodoxy on a pedestal.

If the only Jewish thing you could name in the past week is your bagel; if you understand that racists use "inner city" when they really mean Black but unironically carp about "AIPAC dark money" even when it rankles Jews; if you have the "antizionism isn't antisemitism" card at the ready for the next attack against a Jew or synagogue; then I'm not sorry - I don't trust your politics and I don't trust you, no matter how blue your ballot is. And when you complain in the future about how your Jewish acquaintances no longer talk to you, I'm giving you a mirror so you can see exactly who cashed in those tokens.

[askjumblr]

Since I was a kid, I’ve always had a deep fascination with mythology, mythological creatures, etc.. Recently though, I’ve realized I know very little about my own cultures mythology, and so my question to Jumblr is this: where can I find information on Jewish mythology? What books are good to read, where can I find reliable video essays, stuff like that?
