[me, starting a text message I am sending directly to one person, where there is no need to either specify the recipient or get their attention] Hey,

I love that that's her reasoning when I feel like every other Jew I meet is a trans person. Like, girl.

"Oh you're such a picky eater ugh that's so annoying" do you think I want to be this way Beverly. Do you think I delight in almost barfing when I eat certain things. Do you think it thrills me that certain things ruin a dish for me.
Who the fuck thinks this is fun.

Listen to Daron's song Talkin Shit and read Serj's book and you'll figure it out.

One-third of American Jews view Israel’s war on Gaza as genocide Nearly one-third of US Jews believe that Israel is committing genocide” in the Gaza Strip according to a poll by  Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs.

...so like are you expecting me to find every article about Jews and Israelis demanding an end to hostilities and disavowing what's going on. Am I doing your homework for you, dude? You got a current events paper due at midnight?
Fine, here. Lazy ass.

Anyway. Support a ceasefire and an end to hostilities between Israel and Palestine, donate to Anera, nominate Netanyahu and Gvir as the first two people to be launched directly in the sun, fuck Hamas, reject all actions of antisemitism, Islamophobia, and all other bigotries, and be good people.

I'm sorry I'm not taking criticism from a tankie uncritically sharing gofundme scams 🖤

I appreciate the honesty. Thank you.

Fair enough.

I have 55 posts and none of them are even remotely about what this person said, nor am I even remotely advocating for what they're claiming on any other social media site. What is going on. Am I in the twilight zone.

I always have hope.

I brought it up as point of "violence that happened at a Pro-Palestinian rally that no one said was unacceptable" but I understand what you mean and apologize for sounding misleading. Fully not my intention. Should I delete it as a point or leave it?

Someone from JVP, SJP, any number of the groups that organize protests on college campuses or elsewhere. Someone has the password to the Twitter account. Surely SOMEBODY could have said something.

Thank you Thutmose.

After a Palestinian-American child is stabbed to death, Jewish groups across the spectrum speak out "We are not the only ones being targeted in this moment,” the Jewish Council for Public Affairs said in a statement.

I doubt he did, because he's a dumpster fire of a person who had other shit going on at that time. Lots of other people did, though, like a giant, broad coalition of Jews who didn't want any violence done in their names and immediately said so.

Please point to where I said who started the fight.
Here's an interesting nugget for you to chew on: I believe killing anyone for disagreeing is stupid, senseless, and gets us nowhere.

What the actual fuck are you talking about

I just feel like if I were advocating for a cause and someone said "I shot some kindergarteners for that cause" I'd like to let people know that I do not support that and disavow that senseless violence and that's not what the cause is about, but I also have, like, a heart, so who knows.

"Leaders" is a nebulous term I'm using to describe anyone who has any kind of recognized voice within the larger movement because I understand that it's a broad group and not a centralized coalition with a hierarchy and leadership roles, you smug asshole.

Because he said he did it for Palestine and I'd like to imagine that someone would be like "whoa that guy is not with us and we do not believe shooting kindergarteners helps anyone" and no one did. Not JVP, not Students for Justice in Palestine, not the Palestine Solidarity Campaign.

How does this condemnation of violence against random Jews who are not in Israel somehow imply that I don't know what kind of histrionic overkill the Israeli government is currently raining down on Palestine.

Fascinated by this assumption that being critical of this movement means I'm tacitly supporting Israel and its actions. Incredible brain power. Can you also count to ten without using your fingers.

Yes? I don't think burning down random things, even if cops are useless pieces of shit, is a good thing for gaining support for a movement. Whose life was made better by this. Who benefited from this action.

Netanyahu was the Israeli Ambassador to the US at the time of Hamas' founding, how the hell did he create them. Moreover, the US used to support the Taliban, too. Things change sometimes.
Also, do not mistake my disdain for Hamas as an endorsement of Israel. You are barking up the wrong tree.

God, the people of Palestine deserve so much better than this wretched "leadership" that steals food from the mouths of its people and lives like kings in Qatar. What life might look like for them with the better leaders they should have. It's so frustrating.

I need you to understand that committing violence on people because of another country is a bad thing. You shouldn't firebomb Jews because Israel is being run by a violent dickhead. Hamas is an Islamist dictatorship, should we firebomb protesters in response to this?

The POINT is that the movement, the loudest voices, anyone remotely like a leader, said nothing about it. No condemnation or condolences. Nobody cared. The fact that this violence upon innocent children was done in the name of Palestine should horrify people.
