Image description: A series of ten tweets from Jeremy Slevin that read:

“As Jews we are told from a young age that our identities are intrinsically tied to the modern State of Israel. It is taught to us in Hebrew School, in services, and is a deeply held belief by many of our parents, grandparents and family members. It is reinforced by media and politicians who repeatedly link Jewish identity with the State of Israel. The flip side of this message is that criticism of Israel is a negation of our identity. Even if not explicitly anti-Semitic, the thinking goes, those who criticize Israel must be doing so because they harbor some anti-Semitic attitudes. This conflation of religious/communal identity with a far away nation state is reinforced constantly and repeatedly. Palestinians do not even factor into this story. When reality forces us to reckon with their existence, we are told they are terrorists—warmongers who hate the Jews and are violent by nature (this is Islamophobia btw). The story of the Nakba—the mass expulsion of Palestinians from their ancestral land in 1948–is left out entirely. 1948 is merely the year Israel gained independence. Who knew Palestinians were part of that story? Needless to say, the constant conflation of Jewish identity with one state’s politics is not Good for the Jews. It reduces the personal to the political. It strips Jews of the ability to define their own relationship with their identity. For non-Jews it signals that if you support Israeli policies, then you can’t be anti-Semitic and that if you are critical of Israeli policies you therefore hate the Jews, both of which are lies. It can be very difficult to unlearn.

For years I understood that Netanyahu and settlers were bad actors, but my sensors would go off when I heard people talk about boycotts or divestment. Israel may not be perfect , the thinking went, but grassroots efforts to change those policies *must be* antisemitic.

In truth, Israel is a state, like many others, founded on the displacement of others. Its Jewish exclusivity is predicated on the exclusion of millions who continue to live on that land.

To recognize that Israel is a state, like others, that oppresses and dispossess the powerless. And that the only way to end that oppression is to give those people equal rights and self-determination - just as we yearned for as Jews.“

Does anyone else hate when a videos titled something like "EXTREME OMORASHI DESPERATION" but then when you click on the video they just.... immediately start peeing and there's no desperation involved at all or is that just me?

Reposter Alert

For quite a while, this person - Jensen Ackles Edits (jensenackles1march1978.tumblr.com) - has been reposting on a regular basis.  She mainly zeroes in on @justjensenanddean, but I also have been targeted. Frankly, I’m so done, so I told Eric I’d make a post about it, as I think he’s just nicer than I am, lol.  I want to shut this person DOWN.

Here is an example; she took a bunch of Eric’s edits and made her own post with them with no credit given. She tagged him and that means nothing.

On Twitter (@ForFanJensen), she stalks him as well, even stealing his icon and a header.  It’s to the point where she is basically pretending to be him.

I can’t find her instagram or I’d post that.  She’s also blocked both of us because we asked her to not repost, but has recently contacted me asking us to forgive her and unblock her and that she would give credit!! Yeah, no. 

I noticed today that she has posted three edits of mine - watermark removed - on her twitter.  I don’t mind that people post my stuff, just give credit. Anyway, outside of reporting and blocking her, which we both have done, she still has access to our creations outside of our blogs through others’ reblogs.  Please block this person if you are followed by or are following her.  She is bad news and a little crazy.  

Please signal boost to get the word around. It could be your edit and identity next. Thanks!
