Essential reading from @carolecadwalla.bsky.social. Not comforting, but it helps me set my compass for survival & resistance.

Item 15 from Rebecca Solnit: "If they try to normalize, let us try to denormalize. Let us hold on to facts, truths, values, norms..."

Fight their lies with truth & values.

So sure you're right you blocked replies, eh?

Tell you what, I won't try to tell you what racism is if you don't try to tell me what antisemitism is.

I can’t help but think today about how many young people were savaged on social media, branded as anti-semites and abandoned by their schools for daring to call for a ceasefire. I remember saying that it was the first time I can remember that calling for ceasefire was regarded as a hostile demand.

Trust was broken when progressives joined antisemitic mobs and tore down posters of kidnapped babies.

When they used "Zionism" as a slur, supporting genocide against Jews.

When they lied that a war in Gaza was "genocide" & called Jews Nazis.

When there was silence about murders in DC and Boulder.

We have a lot of work to do right here to build trust.

Stop making excuses for people who willfully choose to say antisemitic things and her relative Erica also has done so and is best friends with someone who willfully does so. You don’t get to tell Jews how to feel much less the Black Americans who pushed back to her too

Do better

But now you're bringing in the complexity of facts and history.

Sadly, this platform can't handle that.

Please don't police my replies.

And don't police her.

She is making the same wrong point repeatedly. She's smart, knows what she's saying, and can take care of herself.

Same for me.

But you can't talk about hate while ignoring "those" people.

If you think "young people" were calling for only for a ceasefire, then you listened to a tinyl fraction & missed the masses: on social media, campuses, mobbing Jewish hospitals.

When you miss those, you misinterpret the whole picture.

First genocide where the people experiencing it celebrated it's start and the people who purportedly committing it celebrate it's end. At any point they could have returned the hostages and the war would stop. That's very clear now

Hamas is responsible for the destruction in Gaza and the suffering of both Israelis and Gazans. I've seen interviews with Gazans complaining they don't have enough money to buy food. Over 2 million tons of aid have entered Gaza; their leaders steal it and profit from it.

He was a gentle soul. He was in Israel studying agriculture, so he could go home and grow life.

That was the crime for which his life was stolen.

May his memory be forever a blessing.

If they called for a ceasefire I’d’ve agreed with them! But they were calling for Israel’s destruction, which is not only antisemitic but genocidal!

Yes gentiles sure have broken the trust of the Jewish community all right.

You have a thread of Jewish people telling you that we experienced something you obviously didn’t.Right here, in this discussion, you are trying to be the expert.You are not. You may feel the way you do.THE WORLD does not stand with you, or with us.Listen &learn so you can help, or kindly shut up.

I'm curious why someone who claims to be "super gay" in their profile *wants* Israel replaced.

I can't take anyone seriously that advocates for rights but only in *their* country.

Sounds extremely selfish and myopic to me 😗

It can be both.

Israel is a modern multiparty democracy. It’s also the world’s only Jewish-majority state and was founded expressly to provide refuge for Jews due to worldwide persecution…

Israel is a secular, multiparty democracy. No matter how hard the right tries to make it otherwise. Just like the hard right in the US is trying to turn us into a theocracy.

Use your brain.
letatcestmoi.bsky.social
You're right, except there would be no best-case scenario like that.

Jews would be slaughtered. That's the goal.

Funny how there are already a great many Arab states in the region (how many are democracies by the way? 😗) and the one Jewish state is the one targetted for replacement by...another Arab state.

Why is that? 🤔

I really wish people would understand and accept the history of that region and what the Jewish people have gone through for thousands of years.

Then read up on Hamas's global jihad.

I suggested we wipe out her state, since states can just be disappeared. 🤷‍♀️

Because it wipes out the Jewish State of Israel.

Why is replacing the nation-state of Israel with a unified single state of a free and democratic Palestine wrong?
letatcestmoi.bsky.social
What's your nationality--your nation-state?

I think we should replace it because of its real or imagined wrongs. Because every "nation" state commits wrongs.
