Absolutely incredible.

NASA Astronaut Reid Wiseman, who commanded Artemis II, took this footage from the far side of the Moon with his iPhone.

Watch with sound on.

Polish town’s new ‘information center’ denies murders of Jews by local Poles in 1941 Family of Jewish man who survived the Jedwabne massacre is trying to get the new installation removed: 'We call it a denial museum, because that’s what it is'

The Jedwabne pogrom of 1941 was one of the most brutal acts in the entire Shoah, committed by Poles against Polish Jews, not by the occupying Germans. Now the local government and people are denying that Poles committed this act. www.timesofisrael.com/polish-towns...

So the media is a bunch of villainous Jews and Trump is Jesus. I fully expect the NYT to sanewash this antisemitic lunacy. So far, they’re ignoring it.

Speaking of arguments that do seem to be gaining ground, a line of reasoning I'm not fond of is that every single Jew anywhere is personally responsible for Israel's actions, but Christians who do something bad don't count as Christians at all.

If fact, if you look at it, they're really Jews! [1]

do the people who get angry every year that Yom HaShoah exists because they claim that Jews having a specific Memorial Day for victims of the Nazi genocide of Jews erases and disrespects other people killed by the Nazis know that other victims of Nazi genocides also have specific memorial days?

I don’t even like Yom haShoah that much. I think it is the wrong time of year, I think it focuses too much on the partisans and not enough on the victims, and I think that is by design. And yet I am defending it because antisemites can’t get over the fact that Jews have a day

Tweet from Elon Musk: “Soros Organization has taken over Hungary”

Sure hope the ADL is feeling good about going out of their way to defend this guy against charges of antisemitism.

Okay so you might see this video with the audio muted. Now imagine how the music must sound like. I urge you to unmute and listen to what it's actually like because I guarantee you you're not prepared for it.

Fun fact: many of the prettiest photos taken by robotic spacecraft were similarly framed ahead of time by humans using simulators of view geometry to pick when the spacecraft should shoot the photo. Case in point: this photo of Europa over Jupiter from New Horizons science.nasa.gov/image-detail...

They’re setting up Jd Vance to run as an antiwar candidate in 2028 on an anti-Israel ”stabbed-in-the-back myth” line, and everyone who falls for it is incredibly gullible.

EL: I think first of all, we need to put aside the question of antisemitism. I’m sorry to push this comparison again, but I think we are there: There was anti-Germanism—even Jews were attacked because they were Germans. And, sure, we should condemn it. It was a problem. But it’s not the problem, and it’s not our problem. Our problem is that Judaism today has for some groups become an ideology of genocide. We need to face that now; any moral understanding of Judaism needs an immediate response to that. Are you working to stop the genocide? And what are you doing to stop it?

There is a lot wrong with this, but let's start with this: if you claim to be progressive, Jewish or not, antisemitism is indeed your problem.

It hurts movements. It divides allies. It has people focusing on Jews instead of those actually responsible.

Even if not for Jews' sakes, it's a problem!

If you’re not Jewish you should read this thread to familiarize yourself with the many many forms of antisemitism so you can actually stop it when you encounter it.

This might be one of my favorites from Artemis II. A cinematic alignment of the Moon and Earth, each cradled within the warmth of sunbeams.

It's so obvious they're going to make all Jewish people the scapegoat for this fiasco, and the worst part is I suspect *it will work* to pull an audience/coalition together from across the ideological spectrum

Oh this is a fun view. The Orientale basin on the limb of the Moon as seen through an Orion capsule window. You can see, especially at around 7:00, lines of impact craters marking the giant splat of ejecta that was thrown out of the crater during the impact. www.flickr.com/photos/nasa2...

dear god

do I think that JD Vance, specifically, is excited about blaming the perfidious Jews for the course of action that *by his own account* he pushed for the maximal blitz version of

I have a father and mother in law in Iran. I have a sister in law. A niece. She's 14. She likes silly pink headbands and purses and dresses, just like kids her age all over the world. There are 93 million people like her in Iran. People who do all the normal mundane life things as the rest of us.

Anecdotally, this is my experience with my Jewish students. The ones who might want to talk about real antisemitism on campus are being dissuaded by the fact that they do not want to feed the destruction of higher education as a whole, and now by the fear of ending up on the admin's Jew list.

Yup, virtually every genocidaire and ethnic cleanser precedes it by going "well we just can't live together, it'll cause too much trouble, so we'll have to be separated"
