Meanwhile, students at Brown University marched and chanted, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” which, for those unclear, is a call to dismantle Israel.

The chant is widely understood to be a call for genocide or ethnic cleansing, since it isn’t just about changing the name of the country but ridding the area of Jews entirely.

How does it feel to be a Jewish student at Brown today?

Oddly, the discussion now is moving to whether the people who are making Jews fear for their safety should face repercussions.

Should future employers know that you called for the extinction of Jews or threatened Jewish kids in the school library?

Suddenly the biggest promoters of cancel culture are very worried about “free speech.”

Universities have spent years talking about “harmful language,” “microaggressions” and “safe spaces” — and punishing students for all kinds of speech.

Kids were kicked out of school or had their acceptances rescinded for words they used before they ever got to college.

Social-media posts that embarrass the school have been used as grounds for expulsion.

Yet somehow these places of festering censorship have now fallen silent about explicit threats to Jewish students, citing their concern for protecting free-speech rights.

Spare us the excuses. We see what’s happening here.

Now that the harmful language consists of chants calling for the ethnic cleansing of Jews and the microaggressions are pretty macro, schools can’t just hide behind the First Amendment or weak slogans about what does or does not have a home on campus.

Antisemitism didn’t rise with the slaughter in southern Israel; it was exposed by it.

What do you think of the whole Ryan Murphy putting Angelica Ross on read about a whole black cast of AHS and then not fulfilling that and her putting off the receipts that he agreed to it. He’s so smarmy.

I can only imagine he's been engaging in this type of bad behavior for much farther back into his career so I'm glad it's finally getting aired out, and good on Angelica Ross for making sure that her side of the story did not get lost in the fray.

I really hate it when you get into an elevator with someone, and they start justifying their elevator use. They are all like I never normally take the elevator, I swear I'm not lazy, I just didn't want to drop my salad or I ran so much last night.

Okay. Cool. Well I'm disabled and will always take the elevator. But now I feel like shit about it, because technically I COULD do the stairs (only it would cost me like my dishes or brushing the teeth energy), but now I feel like crap about myself.

Can't we all just be grateful for the magic machine? Or at least ride in silence? Or hell, I'll take talking about the whether at th is point.

Transmisogyny is absolutely fucking ridiculous. I shouldn't have to go to listings for pride badges that include the transmasc flag and not the transfem one. Absolutely stupid. How dense do you have to be

#im so mad rn #everyone in the reviews is praising them too #like..hello.... #only having the transgender flag is ok #but having the transgender flag and the transmasc one #but specifically leaving out transfems #is so fucked up #lgbtq #transmisogyny #microagressions #?? idk #im just mad and rambly

[kpopnstarwars]

to all the people 'accused' of microagressions, we're not attacking you, and we're not out to get you, so please don't get defensive.

we just want a sorry and maybe even a change in behaviour.

whatever you do, don't deny it and don't brush it off. please.

#this isnt pointed at anyone on here i just had a rotten day #confronted someone on something they said and they really decided to say 'i never said that' like 10 other people heard you my friend #microagressions

Experience Validated, Change Denied...

Is anyone else tired of only having their traumatic experiences validated? It’s comforting to have your reality confirmed (especially after years of being gaslit by peers and society as a whole) but there is a point that I think it becomes a different form of pain because nothing is being done about the traumatic or uncomfortable reality.

An unsent letter to one of the partners at my office.

Dear _____,

Please have your Focus on the Family mail forwarded to your home address.

I had asked the senior partner to address this with you, but he didn't understand what I was talking about.  (It must be nice not to understand. I wish I had the privilege.)

I have been retrieving the mail here for the past 11 years.

I have known what Focus on the Family was since I was 12.

Us gays are a hardy bunch. We understand death and silence and terror.  And so I sorted your mail and I let it go because homophobia has been the default for most of my life.

I can imagine a life without Obergefell because I had a life before it.  As a teenager, I did not expect gay marriage to be legal within my lifetime—I thought, if I were lucky, I might see it come to pass in my sixties.

I can imagine a life without Lawrence because I remember when it was passed.  I was 15 years old and my family was planning a trip to New Orleans and my girlfriend was coming with us.  We joked darkly about how we'd be criminals while we were there.  But then they passed Lawrence before our trip, and it wasn't illegal anymore to do what you liked in the privacy of your own bedroom.

But it still felt illegal.  I was too scared to hold my girlfriend's hand in public.  They had murdered Matthew Shepard five years earlier.  What good was Lawrence when we were still dying?

Like I said, homophobia has been the default, so your envelopes from Focus on the Family weren't a problem.  I am the only gay person here, after all, and at the time I was the lowest paid and lowest on the totem pole.  What right did I have to complain?

But now groups like Focus on the Family have come for women's reproductive health, against the advice of experts and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and science itself.

It might seem strange for me to draw a line when I don't even have a dog in the fight, but this is my line.

Please have your Focus on the Family mail forwarded to your home address going forward.

Thank you, [Vex]
