just returning here after 2 years of not being on this cursed app to say one thing and one thing only. i LEFT this app because of rampant antisemitism and dehumanization that i witnessed two years ago. my last post was about the death of sarah halimi z’l, which you were all silent about. today, six months after the most violent and deadly attack on jews since the Shoah, i return to see how the virulent and disgusting antisemitism that pushed me away from here is even worse than it ever was. i was on tumblr, with various accounts, for more than a decade. it was NEVER this bad but then again, the dehumanization of jews has become so normalized in the last five or six years, so idk why i’m surprised.

well i’m not really surprised. but i’m here because i want to say i told you so, but it’s pointless. you all don’t care. you don’t care that jewish people in your own countries, let alone israel (god forbid lollll) are being abused, attacked, bullied and dehumanized at pre-Shoah levels. you would rather that happen than exhibit nuance, empathy for everyone, or stay silent when you don’t need to say a fucking thing about a conflict miles and miles away from you, in distance and in reality. i’ve lost friends, i’ve lost my last year of education, i lost my mental health, all because when it comes to jews, no amount of repeating the same stupid, violent pattern of dehumanization will teach you non-jews (and yes, some of you jews too) the lesson of antisemitism and its poisonous, conspiratorial and dangerous nature.

we know you don’t care. it’s been made so abundantly clear, not just now but in the last six, seven, eight years. when the only antisemitism you cared about was in a harry potter book, or in trump’s dumbass comments, or in a movie about a jew with a prosthetic nose. and even then most of you didn’t care, you didn’t let us jews define our oppression — so we know you don’t care enough to give us that “privilege” now.

but i know, maybe twenty or thirty years from now, you’ll look at pictures and maybe even history books and remember what you said, did, and fought for. maybe you won’t. maybe you’ll still be sick, poisoned by antisemitism and unable to shake it off. or maybe not, and only then will you realize that you perpetuated this violence, evil, this dehumanization of jews. you called us nazis, you spit at our faces while we begged to be seen, you engaged in violent antisemitism comparable to nazi-era rhetoric. and maybe THEN you’ll feel bad. but then it’ll be too late.

to any jew that comes across this post, you’re not alone. my DMs are always open — i don’t come on this app much but will always be happy to talk. am yisrael chai ❤️

hi! fun fact:

commenting “free palestine” on a post made by a jewish person simply living their life is actually not activism! it is antisemitism. hope this helps! :)

Sending loads of love and strength to Jewish students and professors in American colleges and universities who are dealing with a surge of antisemitism given recent events. You needn’t ever be ashamed of your religious identity and I’m sorry you were made to feel so. Hope your studies/careers continue smoothly in the future ❤️‍🩹💙🤍

The whole "No such thing as an Israeli citizen due to mandatory military service" is one of the sickest fucking things to me. The entire reason a draft is in place is because it was repeatedly proven over and over again that the nations surrounding Israel couldn't be trusted not to attempt wars of extermination against it. I feel fucking ashamed to see fellow non-Jews online that I once thought of as sensible folk using the draft as some kind of gotcha to push the "Zionists = Nazis" bullshit.

100%

It's just another one goal post moved. Not to mention, everyone who says that doesn't realize that there are exemptions to military service so by their own logic, there are Israeli civilians.

But it's easier to make a claim that's false in multiple senses than to do any actual research

The protesters are not calling for peace. They’re calling for the elimination of Jewish Israel.

Don’t let their right to peaceful protest (when they’re not harassing Jewish students) obscure the fact that they’re not calling for peace.

why would you be unsafe at pride

I'm going to assume this question is asked in good faith and with a genuine interest in my safety. I'm also going to be very direct and blunt.

Jewish people are being targeted and attacked worldwide. Not just in right-wing spaces, but also leftist spaces. And yes that includes Pride and queer related events. If I want to attend pride wearing my kippah and my magen david, there is a good chance I will have some unpleasant words thrown at me, at the very least. There is a chance I will be physically attacked and/or kicked out of the march.

I would recommend spending more time listening to Jewish people on their struggle with antisemitism in the present. I don't mean that as a snarky comment, I just think listening to minorities about their struggles is a crucial part of activism. Hope this answered your question! If you'd like to ask more questions, feel free to reach out again, either in my ask box or my DMs

An Anonymous User Asked:

At the end of the day, we did all we could. We suffered in diaspora for millennia. We walked their high roads and we died when we reached their destinations. We kept to ourselves, we kept out of their way. We joined their armies and fought their senseless wars. We paid taxes to fund roads we couldn't use and public services we couldn't access. We invented their vaccines and their ballpoint pens and their pacemakers and their nuclear weapons. We tried living as a peaceful, perfect minority in their world. We were good. We did everything they asked of us. They killed us anyway. They hated us anyway.

They say they hate us now because we have our own nation. We have our own taxes that fund our own roads and our own public services. We invent our own navigation apps and firewalls and missile defence systems and nuclear bombs. We have our own armies and our own senseless wars. They say they hate us now because we have our own nation. But they hated us before. They will always hate us, no matter what we do. We just chose not to be their perfect victims any longer.

Well put. It's trurly heartbreaking how no matter what we'll do, they'll hate us.

To the girl who stands with "Freedom Fighters"

On Friday, pro-Hamas groups on my campus started an encampment. I, along with a few Chabad peers, decided to stick around to keep an eye on things and be aware of the situation.

In that time, a non-Muslim, non-Arab, non-Palestinian girl approached us, and in the conversation when Hamas were brought up, she said she "stands with freedom fighters".

So this is to the girl who stared me right in the face and said she stands with "freedom fighters".

"Freedom fighters" don't cut off a woman's breast and toss it around like a plaything. "Freedom fighters" don't steal babies from their homes and keep them in dark tunnels for months on end. "Freedom fighters" don't take women hostage to hold them at gunpoint and command them to perform sexual acts. "Freedom fighters" don't gang rape civilians attending a music festival for peace, recording the whole thing with pride. "Freedom fighters" don't parade the naked bodies of their victims along the streets and pass out candy in celebration.

Maybe for you, girl who stands with "freedom fighters", this war is just some fandom to follow. You bought your cheap keffiyeh on Amazon and decided you're a revolutionary. Decided to set up camp illegally on campus and deemed yourself a rebel.

But did you stare at your screen in shock as your heart and hope and trust shattered into twelve hundred bloody pieces, trampled in the dirt? Did you frantically text friends to make sure they were home and safe and alive? Did your hands shake as you realized what was being done to your brothers and sisters?

Did you ever stare at a "missing" poster and miss people you've never met, because they're family all the same? Did you stare at graffiti scratched on a baby's face on the walls of your school's Chabad and realize that this is how little your lives and theirs mean to your peers?

Have you ever read the news and seen a Jewish brother murdered in your home city? Felt your heart drop to see another brother dead, so far from the war and yet somehow never far enough?

No, you haven't. Because you think you're such a rebellious revolutionary, standing in front of me in your keffiyeh, supporting your "freedom fighters".

Because you never had to hear your mother say she used to live on one of the kibbutzim that were attacked and realized that this could have been your future.

Because you have never had to look in the eyes of someone who has lost friends and family to your "freedom fighters" and struggled to find what to say to offer even a shred of comfort.

To you, this war is a trend. A fandom. A quirky little phase.

To so many others, it's a fucking nightmare come to life.

It is Holocaust remembrance day. Let us all remember those who survived the Shoah and those who did not. Let us also remember the many survivors who are no longer with us today.

May their memory be a blessing.

Never again is now.

pro-palestine protests are not pro-peace.

"peace is a white man's word, resistance is ours!"

"there is only one solution, intifada revolution!"

pro-palestine protests a not for coexistence.

"we don't want no two states, we want all of '48!"

"from the river to the sea, palestine will be free" - or its much less covert arabic version: "from water to water, palestine is/will be arab"*

when people tell you who they are, be it their slogans or their signs, believe them.

*i do not speak arabic, and I've seen this slogan translated both ways. either way, it's still problematic.

I sat next to the protest today.

I wrote fan-fiction about two gay jewish dads raising children to the play list of the chant- "No peace on stolen land!" on an American college campus. It isn't a name brand one either, nor does it have any legitimate ties to Israel. The anger is just there- it has rotten these future doctors, nurses, teachers, and members of society.

I don't even know what to call their demonstration- it was a tizzy of a Jew hatred affair. At points, there were empathetic statements about Gazans and their suffering. Then outright support of Hamas and violent resistance against all colonizers. Then this bizarre fixation on antisemitism while explaining the globalists are behind everything.

"Antisemitism doesn't exist. Not in the modern day," A professor gloated over a microphone in front of the library. "It's a weaponized concept, that's prevents us from getting actual places- ignore anyone who tells you otherwise."

"How can we be antisemitic?" A pasty white girl wearing a red Jordanian keffiyeh gloats five minutes later. "Palestinians are the actual semites."

"there is only one solution!" The crowd of over 50 students and faculty cried, over and over.

"Been there, done that," I thought, then added a reference to a mezuza in the fourth paragraph.

Two other Jewish students passed where I was parked out, hunching and trying to be as innocuous as possible. We laughed together at my predicament, where I am willingly hearing this bullshit and feeling so amused by this.

"Am I crazy? For sitting here?" I asked them. My friends shook their heads.

"We did the same last week- it's an amazing experience, isn't it?”

We all cackled hysterically again. They left to study for finals. Two minutes later, I learned from the current speaker that “Zionism” is behind everything bad in this world.

Forty-five minutes in, a boy I recognized joined me on my lonely bench. He came from a very secular Jewish family and had joined Hillel recently to learn more about his culture. His first Seder was two nights ago.

He sat next to me, heavy like the weight of the world was on his shoulders. There was just this despondent look on his face. I couldn’t describe it anyone else, but just sheer hopelessness personified.

“They hate us. I can’t believe how much they hate us.” He said in greeting.

And for the first time all day, I had no snarky response or glib. All I could do was stare out into the crowd, and sigh.

Dear goyim, the reason why your "anti israel" rhetoric is actually antisemitism, is because of double standards.

If you call what's going on in Gaza a genocide yet not whats happening in Ukraine despite more purely civilian deaths in Ukraine than Gaza for the first 100 days, you are antisemitic.

If you support land back movements where indigenous folk who were present on the land first get to govern themselves but not jews with Israel in a two state solution? You are antisemitic.

If you use tropes and rhetoric which are historically antisemitic and just change jews to zionists, (eg, jews control the world/media turns into zionists control the world/media) you are antisemitic.

If you claim that there are no Israeli citizens due to mandatory military service yet don't say the same about Singapore, Korea and other countries with mandatory military service, you are antisemitic.

If you claim anything as being bad about Israel yet don't view it as bad for any other country, you are antisemitic.

Israel is the only Jewish state in the whole world and houses half of the worlds Jewish population. If it's the only country where a double standard applies, it's antisemitic.

If somehow you view every country the same as Israel, both in the above examples and others I haven't listed, whilst I do not agree with you, you are truly just anti Israel and not antisemitic.
