so this is insane

Prime Minister Mark Carney says Canada is failing Jewish Canadians and the community is being brutally targeted by hate.

"Well well well, if it isn't the consequences of my own actions :D"

You want to stop it? Come down on it. Hard. In every. Single. Fucking. Case.

Canada has some serious antisemitism problems. I was told that 20 years ago. Yeah, this has been boiling since long before 10/7.

What I'm learning is that ALL of this has been boiling since LONG before 10/7

Arguably goes back to the Eichmann trial. Basically, antisemitism had a huge PR problem after, um, the six million dead. Antisemitism persisted on the fringes, and among the older generations, see Nixon, but anyone born after the war was educated in the Holocaust.

Things really started to change with the rise of the internet. It was still laughable at the start, blaming Jews for 9/11 for instance. This evolved into the 4chan era. Meanwhile, on the left, there was a small malignancy in the antiwar movement, and that's where you get groups like Code Pink. (Now, keep in mind, the left-wing antisemites were and are parasites sucking on larger movements.) Then 10/7 happened, and whatever was left of the lull period was over.

I agree with most of your points, but calling Left Wing antisemetism a parsite abdicates too much responsibility. How much and how often does antisemetism need to rear its ugly head on the left before we admit that it's a pervasive and common problem, not an abberation

I actually do agree. Just because they're parasites doesn't mean we shouldn't go to the doctor, to continue the metaphor.

Asks that got perfectly cut off in my notification list and will not be opened because anything that comes after this combination of words put in that order is, by definition, victim blaming Nazi/Holocaust apologia and is irrelevant. Imagine typing this out. "Better behave, Jew, or we'll do it again." Absolutely the fuck not. If you want to genocide Jews you will now find yourself dealing with the IDF, and that's the meaning of "Never Again". Cope harder.

We've been hated by the whole world for 3700 years, there's nothing that can be done to change this except to defend ourselves against it, with force.

Jews no longer care about "not being hated" by people like that. Because there's nothing they can do to change their mind anyway

George Orwell said years ago that there was no point in trying to change an antisemite's mind because if they listened to reason, they wouldn't be so singularly obsessed with Jews.

This is the highest number of cases reported in the state in a single year over the last 25 years.

Me explaining test results to my neighbor:

Her: So I don't have covid. I don't have flu. I just have C? What's C?

Me: How long has it been since you had a covid test?

Her: 2022, why?

(For the uninitiated, C stands for control. It's what proves the test is working.)

Anyway, daily reminder from a culturally isolated Romani person.

Gypsy does not mean wanderer.

It literally means ‘people from egypt’ or similar, as europeans believed Romani people were from Egypt. It has become known similar to nomad due to how our ancestors have been forced to be nomadic due to racism and ostracization, but it is a SLUR.

Romani people are STILL being forcibly sterilized.

Romani people are STILL being forced into ghettos.

Romani people are still facing violence and danger in countless European countries- and recently, I’ve seen the beginnings of the extremes in the United States.

Have a little fucking respect and DON’T USE A SLUR THAT’S BEEN USED FOR CENTURIES AGAINST US.

And for the love of whatever’s up there, ESPECIALLY do not use it to describe your witchcraft. It is playing on the ‘magic gypsy’ trope, and is EXTREMELY insulting.

non romani people, please reblog this.

Even MST3K turned Gypsy the robot into GPC.

“We left rhetoric about Jews poisoning wells in the Middle Ages!”

Modern rhetoric:

Interestingly enough, Oreos (last time I checked at least) are vegan, but only because of reasons that are bad for the planet, and for your arteries: They replace the cream with palm oil.

Happy Pride Month! 🏳️‍🌈 Be normal about queer Jews or else. 🫵

This includes queer Orthodox Jews, queer Jews of color, and queer Israeli Jews. Be normal or else. 🫵

Radical concept but. . . dehumanizing people at all let alone for where they happened to be born. . . . . . is bad.

Upwards of 24% of trans people have long covid. And that's just the largest percentage. Other queer people are also suffering from long covid at higher rates than the general population. It's specific because we're abandoning around a quarter (and growing) of our community for the façade of normal at pride and other events. For context, AIDS became a rallying point for activism and care when only ~10% of the gay community was affected.

If you believe you would have cared for AIDS patients and marched for Act Up in the 80s and 90s and you aren't wearing a mask in 2025, no you wouldn't have.

How did a radical leftist and unapologetic fascist get over their differences and become friends? The story of their shared antisemitism will warm your heart…
