I’m slowly realising that almost nobody thinks that antisemitism is a real problem. They only think nazis are a problem (if that even), because they were conditioned to hate them.
But they don’t consider their own antisemitism to be antisemitism - they just consider it to be common sense, or justified political activism!
judaism really popped off with its prayer tunes. sometimes a tune gets stuck in my head and i realize it’s not a song but a prayer. and then i feel happy
i mean this in the meanest way possible, if you as a leftist, in an attempt to 'punish' the democrats, either didn't vote or voted for a third party, go fuck yourself. you chose your own self righteousness over actually doing good.
Jewish people deserve to feel safe and if your first reaction is to go "but-!" then you're a bigot
Jewish people aren't some alien race that has ✨️special exemptions✨️ to your grace and understanding when it comes to minorities
It's not Jewish people's fault that your first instinct is to come up with an excuse for why it's "actually totally ok and ethical" to hate them
May this year be better than the last.
I don't think people on this website understand what "you should love jewish people more than you hate nazis" means
do you hate nazis because they're fun to hate on and easy to ratio? or because of the material harm they have caused, are causing, and will continue to cause? when you see a nazi, do you see an acceptable target? or do you see an active threat? what do you do to help jewish people outside of these situations? anything at all? do you have positive views on judaism? do you try to better yourself by listening to jewish voices on topics of bigotry?
I'm not going to complain about a nazi getting punched for being a nazi, but the issue isn't as simple as just punching nazis. you need to love jewish people more than you hate nazis if you want to address the root causes of antisemitism
the L and K should not be so close on the keyboard the amount of times I've accidentally typed a very antisemitic slur while trying to type "like" is absurd. the only thing saving me from this is autocorrect and that feels like a flimsy barrier at best
I love love love being religious but you have to admit there's something a little bit funny about it all. Like sorry boss I can't come in tomorrow, me and all my Jewish friends are going down to the river to throw bread and look at fish and feel sad about our sins. Yeah it's gonna be all day.
