Dara Horn writes about this in her book.
I don't know and am not counting on any clarifying answers coming my way anytime soon tbh.
Not sure why people can’t get that both things are true. ADL and a bunch of other voices are mischaracterizing antisemitism and hate crimes targeting Jews are on the rise.
Yes what the hell. A hate crime is not like oops I meant to be antizionist.
If someone attacks a synagogue because they're angry at Israel, that is antisemitism. It doesn't matter the reason they're angry. Targeting a synagogue because they need to take out their anger on Jewish people--and any Jewish place of worship will do--is antisemitism.
Hegseth just did a version of this in today’s press conference.
Wondering how exactly we used a thermal drone to investigate xAI’s power plant? Reporter Evan Simon explains how this first-of-its-kind investigation came together:
It's challenging to be parsing which particulars in RFK's food policies have some truth to them when there are such harmful changes underway re: vaccines an autism. co-reported by @leahjdouglas.bsky.social
Tho much of the thinking underpins his food policies too.

@burness.bsky.social is with the excellent @boltsmag.org, who I ran a fundraiser for not too long ago.
My current fundraiser is for @51st.news - see below.
American Jews have agency to oppose war and uplift arguments against war not rooted in noxious stereotypes. But the loudest voices (both antisemites and pro-Israel Jews resistant to any criticism of Israel) are much more effective at grabbing public attention. I don’t know how to change that.
Good piece from WaPo's climate coach that debunks the concept of superfoods but also tells you all plants are super and you should eat more of them, for you and the environment:

I think this is the case whether or not he wins.
As US and Israeli bombs fell on Iran this weekend, bettors on Polymarket — where $529 million was traded on contracts tied to the timing of the strikes — were cashing in
Nice one. You really owned the Jews concerned about antisemitism on the left.
Oooh that's great
I mean, petty gossip would be enough to bring me back in
I guess I'm a bad Jew because I really don't know shit about the Rothschild's.
The rally began just hours after news broke that former Iowa First Lady Billie Lee Ray had died. Along with Gov. Ray, she helped 10,000 refugees resettle in Iowa after the U.S. withdrawal from Vietnam.
“Historically, Iowa has been a place that has welcomed immigrants," Vanessa Marcano-Kelly said.
The “New Isle” settlement was built to house Indigenous families displaced by climate change in coastal Louisiana.
But residents report leaking doors, broken appliances, and homes that feel like they’re leaning. “We should not have this many complaints."
Whaaat? No way, it's almost as if the scientists and science journalists on this beat shedding light on this a decade ago were right. Wow, what a surprise. And yet, a number of popular writers that want to identify as journalists called us shills for chemical companies.

Maybe someday. Hard to say how far out we are. If there were some inflection point that really boosted the tech, that would help!
It can be fun
Obviously it's content like this that got me verified on Bluesky
I have seen the RFK-Kid Rock workout video and, to quote my life coach June Diane Raphael, I'm simply not going to be taking that on.
Today on Volts: meat! Bruce Friedrich argues that a) the dire environmental & social impacts of meat cultivation are rising, but b) so is meat consumption, so the only solution is c) plant-based or cultivated meat. We talk about the state of the market, the tech, & the future possibilities.
Vaccines are miracles. But undermining public health leaves populations exposed to now thankfully preventable disease. Joseph survived to become caretaker of the Pasteur Institute. When the Nazis occupied Paris, he took his own life.
Science is only as strong as the society practicing it.
“The Jews who critique Israel” ah yes, Israelis famously shy away from criticism. Thank goodness for these brave few!
The replies in here are predictably uninformed and lack any curiosity.
Hungary holds elections in 2 months. And the US Secretary of State is in Hungary campaigning for Viktor Orban. And as you can see, Russian state media loves it.
