Can’t wait til I publish my article on muskeljudentum & the entire section to nationalism over religion & how certain Jews functionally made being Nationalist a replacement for religious identity.
When you actually read the works of these early Zionists, you learn how much they hated their fellow and how fully they internalized antisemitic rhetoric.
Ben-Yehuda was a Native Yiddish speaker who renounced Yiddish.. he and his wife moved to Palestine & tried to infiltrate the religious Jewish communities there — they literally would dress up as religious Jews to try to proselytize the revival of Hebrew. It did not work.
Israel replacing Jewish identity is nothing new, but it is more widespread than ever.
Nationalism was a great way for non-religious Jews (like Eliezer Ben-Yehuda, the reviver of Hebrew) to have an identity without being religious because they hated religion & spirituality.
Italian university students hung an effigy of billionaire Elon Musk upside down Tuesday in Milan's Piazzale Loreto, where fascist dictator Benito Mussolini's body was desecrated in 1945, after the wannabe oligarch gave two rapid-fire Nazi salutes to an exuberant crowd at Trump's inauguration.
Frog candle? Yes, please!

“Why aren’t the Jews talking about Elon”
We are? Yes, many Zionist Jewish celebrities have been silent — but that doesn’t mean all Jews are…
Did you know that we live in a society?
Also, Instagram does not pay. It doesn’t have a creator fund like TikTok & doesn’t monetize like YouTube……it has irregular bonuses that you have to qualify for which pays a pittance if you’re lucky enough to get it.
And sometimes opinions are based in nothing but bad faith & lack of knowledge…
Guess what! Being disabled/chronically ill makes in person work very difficult. Building a platform outside of mainstream social media is difficult and takes time. Accusing people of putting money over their morals while actively using their platforms to help others is so shortsighted.
How else is anyone supposed to interpret “you’re putting money over your morals”….and why are you assuming they haven’t reached out to their in person network?

If you want to educate yourself on antisemitism (and I highly recommend you do so) and you don't want to be fed imperialist and pro-genocidal talking points from the ADL, I highly recommend @rudaleh.bsky.social's website. jewitches.com/pages/antise...
thank you SO much!!! I’ve been having so much fun being able to post again while still feeling comfortable 🥹
Uh oh! Her mind!
My favorite genre
Los Angeles is more ecologically & topographically diverse than you can imagine. It isn’t just a concrete jungle. We have forests & chaparral & meadows & creeks & ponds & flora & fauna — deer, cougars, bobcats, ring tailed cats, hawks, falcons — so much magic in its soil that is currently burning.
LA fires are a good reminder that the only difference between me and any refugee is luck.
If you're in an evacuation zone in SoCal, please check in with any disabled/aging neighbors you have to see if they need help evacuating.
The image is from a "Transparency Center" document and lists guidelines regarding acceptable and prohibited content for insults. It mentions: 1. Insults about: Character, such as cowardice, dishonesty, criminality, and sexual promiscuity or immorality. Mental characteristics, including but not limited to accusations of stupidity, intellectual capacity, and mental illness, as well as unsupported comparisons among politically correct (PC) groups based on inherent intellectual traits. 2. Highlighted section: The document allows allegations of mental illness or abnormality when tied to gender or sexual orientation, referencing political and religious discourse about transgenderism and homosexuality. It also acknowledges the non-serious use of terms like "weird."
Meta literally created a LGBTQ exception for calling someone mentally ill as an insult. You can't do it for any other group except LGBTQ people.
little reminder: our mayor cut funding to the fire department and gave more money to the police department. and on an unrelated note, prison inmates are made to fight fires for like $2 a day.
It’s apocalyptic how beautiful the blue skies are when they’re an omen of worse to come; hugged at the edges by pillars of smoke that choke out the horizon
Everything is covered in ashes and the air smells of fire
