The #antisemitism directed at American Jews isn't only vile but it's also totally misplaced. Overwhelming majorities of us oppose settlements and favor the creation of a Palestinian state. Most of us hate Bibi and this Israeli gov. Israel ranks as our 10th most important issue, out of 14, in J Street polling.

It's fucking maddening. But I guess it's always the case that "dumb bigot" is redundant.

The New House Speaker Claims to Have a Black Son and Everything About It Is Super Weird

In the days since House Republicans elected some guy named Mike Johnson to be their new speaker, we have been subjected to learning who this guy is and every horrifying thing he has ever done, said, or supported. But one of the stranger revelations concerned the Louisiana congressman’s past statements about his Black son.

President #Biden is considering canceling student debt for borrowers whose balances have ballooned because of interest accrual, those who’ve been trying to repay for 25 years and students who attended low-performing colleges, administration officials said.

@TonyStark @littlemiao Rather than saying "The Fediverse has an antisemitism problem," which implies that this is a platform issue, let's just be clearer, more direct, and more honest: The world has an antisemitism problem.

Eleven year old meme still rings true. Being a 50 year old Progressive means saying, "I told you so" an excessive number of times.

Question in the aftermath of a pogrom

How many Jews need to die
And how brutally
For you to say “that is bad”
And leave off the “but” for just as long as it takes
Grieving families to find their dead
And say Kaddish

@TonyStark @littlemiao @rob No one yet has a satisfactory answer as to where they want 7 million Israeli Jews to go.

It's unfortunate that Hamas uses children as human shields.

Most nations follow the Geneva Conventions.
The world is a harsh place enough without false narratives that hide in religion or racism.

It's important to remember that Hamas is a terrorist group with a primary goal of destroying Israel, and they will do anything to meet their goal, including risking or sacrificing the lives of Palestinian women and children.

Not WTF but what the fuck? 2 dead, 15 injured? No! 35 injured 7 dead! No! Actually it's 12 injured 8 dead! Yeah. That's it!....or 3 mass shootings reported in the same day? C'mon people, just chill! We can't have futures with shit like that every day!

"Jewish Republican" is an oxymoron.

@AlliFlowers Because there are a dozen Muslim nations across a vast area of the world that (purport to) protect Muslim people and values, but there is but one tiny nation that is explicitly to support Jews.
