Leaning in close so my mouth is directly on the mic:

Antisemitism is not partisan and I will not pick and choose that one hurts me less just because it comes from my team. If my team can snuff it out and chooses not to bc the other guy is scarier, they don’t care enough about me, and they should.

The way every part of this story is made to evoke revulsion of the Jew who desecrates gentile corpses and pays handsomely for the privilege is not hidden, so when you see people slurping it up... feels bad, gang. Feels real bad.

The question of sourcing the cadavers and whether proper consent was acquired: a real story, makes you squeamish

Israeli Jews who unfortunately have real need of understanding battlefield trauma participating in a long-running program: MONSTROUS; “USC profits off of this” --> especially not cute

Like, the way some people on my feed were SO READY to believe "USC sold corpses to the IDF!!!!!!!" just this week was shameful. Framing this story as "IDF IMPURE IN A SPICY, HEADLINE-GRABBING WAY" when it seems to be "IDF personnel attended combat medic training alongside others" is so transparent.

USC sold dead bodies to U.S. military to train IDF medical personnel

A review of seven years’ worth of contracts unveiled more than $860,000 to use cadavers in surgical trainings involving the Israeli Defense Forces.

This, however, is just "The Jews are our misfortune."

Antisemitism is a conspiracy theory that Jews, a tiny minority, are out to hurt non-Jews for profit. When you start to see them as ~interconnected (a powerful cabal!) and omnipresent, someone who loves you ought to ask if you hear yourself.

Is this a sane response to the post above, chat?

Zionism as omni-evil is just deranged.

Forever tapping the sign:

Tweet: "Basically the argument is 'it's not antisemitic to speak out against the genocidal, hooked-nose, blood drinking, Christ-killing, rootless cosmopolitan, media-controlling, global cabal of Zionist oppressors'" (From Kamen Amin Thaabet, May 7, 2024).

“Al-Aqsa Flood” is what Hamas calls Oct. 7th, which is why every event being called “Flood Placename” is so rancid. The upside-down red triangles denote targets for Hamas and are incorporated into its branding and visual sets, including footage of tortured Israeli hostages. Know what you’re seeing.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey @mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social · 12h

This morning, Temple Israel woke up to anti-Semitic threats — a reminder that hate still tries to find a foothold. It won’t find one here. Minneapolis stands with our Jewish neighbors. Hiding behind hate to spread fear aganst any religion or group of people is cowardly and unacceptable in our city.

(I didn't realize when I was commenting, but it looks like she's moved over much more into short-form videos, which is how I found her. They're great! Very digestible! So if that link only shows you videos that are over a year old, go look at her shorts, they're more recent.)

“I didn’t mean to scare anyone or make it sound so serious … She’s been a little under the weather and I simply asked for prayers bc I believe so strongly in the power of prayer. It was nothing more than a little sister asking for prayers for her big sister. Thank you all for lifting her up.”

me, a non-religious person (closes eyes): I am praying for Dolly Parton. I would like to put in a prayer for Dolly Parton. Make that lots of prayers. I would like infinity prayers for Dolly Parton. Give Dolly Parton unlimited prayers. All the prayers that have ever existed should go to Dolly Parton.

"I hear death chants at Glastonbury and see posters saying “destroy Israel” at San Fermín. From Hamas to the Israeli settlements in the West Bank, people are shouting, “May your village burn.” And I think: my village did burn. Are these chants the best we can wish for one another?"
