The nazis that you see in movies are as much a historical fantasy as vikings with horned helmets and samurai cutting people in half.
The nazis were not some vague evil that wanted to hurt people for the sake of hurting them. They had specific goals which furthered a far right agenda, and they wanted to do harm to very specific groups, (largely slavs, jews, Romani, queer people, communists/leftists, and disabled people.)
The nazis didn't use soldiers in creepy gas masks as their main imagery that they sold to the german people, they used blond haired blue eyed families. Nor did they stand up on podiums saying that would wage an endless and brutal war, they gave speeches about protecting white Christian society from degenerates just like how conservatives do today.
Nazis weren't atheists or pagans. They were deeply Christian and Christianity was part of their ideology just like it is for modern conservatives. They spoke at lengths about defending their Christian nation from godless leftism. The ones who hated the catholic church hated it for protestant reasons. Nazi occultism was fringe within the party and never expected to become mainstream, and those occultists were still Christian, none of them ever claimed to be Satanists or Asatru.
Nazis were also not queer or disabled. They killed those groups, before they had a chance to kill almost anyone else actually. Despite the amount of disabled nazis or queer/queer coded nazis you'll see in movies and on TV, in reality they were very cishet and very able bodied. There was one high ranking nazi early on who was gay and the other nazis killed him for that. Saying the nazis were gay or disabled makes about as much sense as saying they were Jewish.
The nazis weren't mentally ill. As previously mentioned they hated disabled people, and this unquestionably included anyone neurodivergent. When the surviving nazi war criminals were given psychological tests after the war, they were shown to be some of the most neurotypical people out there.
The nazis weren't socialists. Full stop. They hated socialists. They got elected on hating socialists. They killed socialists. Hating all forms of lefitsm was a big part of their ideology, and especially a big part of how they sold themselves.
The nazis were not the supervillians you see on screen, not because they didn't do horrible things in real life, they most certainly did, but because they weren't that vague apolitical evil that exists for white American action heros to fight. They did horrible things because they had a right wing authoritarian political ideology, an ideology that is fundamentally the same as what most of the modern right wing believes.

LGBTQ+ Jewish Resources and Organizations
Happy Pride! Here's a few links I've collected to hopefully reach whoever in the Jewish community may need them. If you're considering donating a bit of money or volunteer time this Pride, please consider looking into these efforts (at your own discretion, as many of these may be local to specific areas). Please feel free to add on to this list, and any queer Jews reading are welcome to link their personal donation posts in the comments.
The SMQN, an organization for LGBTQ+ Sephardic and Mizrahi Jews
Keshet, a group for LGBTQ+ Jews
JQY, a group for LGBTQ+ Jews with a focus on those in Orthodox communities
Queer Jews of Color Resource List (note: this list is way more than just resources, there’s a LOT of helpful stuff in here) JQ International: In their own words, "JQ celebrates the lives of LGBTQ+ Jews and their allies by transforming Jewish communities and ensuring inclusion through community building, educational programs, and support and wellness services, promoting the healthy integration of LGBTQ+ and Jewish identities."
Ritualwell (check out their blessings related to gender identity!) 
Guimel, an LGBTQ+ support group for the Jewish Community in Mexico. The site is in Spanish. I’m not a native speaker, but I was still able to read a little bit of it. 
SVARA: In their own words, “SVARA’s mission is to empower queer and trans people to expand Torah and tradition through the spiritual practice of Talmud study.”
TransTorah is definitely an older website, but there are still some miscellaneous pdfs and resources up on the “Resources” page.
SOJOURN: In their own words, "The Southern Jewish Resource Network for Gender & Sexual Diversity (SOJOURN) is the American South's resource for Jewish & LGBTQ+ programming, education, support, and advocacy."

The Jewish Asexual Anthology
Tumblr media
Hi!
I am working on an anthology of creative nonfiction/“personal” essays by Jewish asexual individuals. I am currently in the phase of collecting pieces, and I’d love to hear from you!
Topics include: -Shomer negiah/tzniut/Jewish cultural expectations -Growing up ace and Jewish in a secular world/in a Jewish community -Stereotypes and tropes - fitting in, breaking out -Alienation from/inclusion in Jewish and queer spaces -Family/relationship pressures, expectations, and navigation -Figuring out you’re ace -Coming out -Ace and ___ (intersectionality with other identities) -Parenting/not parenting -Sexuality/romance, or lack thereof -Ace joy, ace community -Anything else that comes to mind about the ace and jewish experience!
Pieces are ideally between 500-1,500 words, and should be in English (words or phrases in other languages may be used, as long as they are explained or translated). Anonymous pieces or pieces under a pseudonym are allowed!
Due date for a first draft is December 1st, 2023.
If interested, please email me at [email protected]!
Sincerely,
Daphna S.

sorry f its obvious, goy here, could you go into what all the colors represent? :D
The twelve stripes on the queer Jewish pride flag represent the 12 stones of the 12 Tribes of Israel on the High Priest's Choshen (breastplate):
Onyx: Levi
Garnet: Yehudah (Judah)
Ruby: Reuven (Reuben)
Peridot: Asher
Malachite: Yosef (Joseph)
Emerald: Dan
Prase: Shimon (Simeon)
Torquise: Naftali
Sapphire: Yissachar (Issachar)
Jasper: Binyamin (Benjamin)
Pearl: Zevulun (Zebulun)
Crystal: Gad
There's no consensus as to which stones exactly were on the breastplate, so I synthesized different interpretations.
Sources used were:
The High Priest’s Breastplate (Choshen)
The Stones, Symbols, and Flags of the Twelve Tribes of Israel
Exodus Tetzaveh 28:17-20 JPS translation
Onkelos Tetzaveh 28-17-20 Metsudah translation
Translating Gemstones
I colour-picked from each stone and ordered them to resemble a rainbow, representing the unity and diversity of the Jewish people and the inclusion of LGBTQ Jews in our history.

I love religious queer people so much especially non-Christian religious queer people. I know it can be hard to be queer in religious spaces and hard to be religious in queer spaces but your existence as both religious and queer makes the world better.

Happy Pride Month! If I see any of you goyishe fucks calling Anne Frank bi, or worse a 'bicon", I will egg your house.
She was a child who was murdered in the Holocaust before she could declare what her sexuality was. We don't know what she would have identified as.
Parts weren't edited out because her father Otto was being malicious, not only would parts that were left out only serve to distract from the message of her diary (as proven by y'all's obsession with these entries), queerness was also still very much illegal. He was protecting his daughter's memory and ensuring the diary focused on the story it desperately needed to tell at the time.
There are so many other historical figures who were openly queer that you can support instead of fuelling your weird obsession with dead Jews.
Let Anne Frank rest.

I'm Noah, and I write queer fantasy books with disabled and/or neurodivergent characters.
Tumblr media
The Eternal Machine was my debut book, the first in an epic and dark steampunk fantasy series. ⚔️🏴‍☠️
Phantom and Rook is a cozy urban fantasy, and the first one I went 'all out' with. I also have special news about this one. 🏳️‍🌈✨
The Rebel Foxes is the last book I released, and it's the first one under my new trans af pen name, Noah Hawthorne. It's a standalone in an interconnected dark fantasy punk series. 🔥🏳️‍⚧️
My website is here, and you can subscribe to the Crew of Misfits and get free novellas here.

so this is how someone responded to my post above. so im gonna "cry like a little bitch" by responding to it in the calmest manner i can.
for one, "too obsessed with theatrics" -says the person typing in all caps, and saying i should commit murder
for two, if i did commit such a crime, the minorities im apart of (queer, trans) would be in danger since people think that we're all of the same mind.
*trigger warning for some trauma*
also I have, as I said in the comments, experienced real anger and emotions. I was abused as a child by my parents and others. A person who I loved deeply committed suicide because of hatred. And other things that I shall not say here. However I am aware of my anger and control/manage it, so I do not become abusive. Uncontrolled anger causes abusers, uncontrolled anger causes murder.
