Discussions about identity politics often overlook the fact that its validation of some identities is paralleled by its devaluation of others. The identities that are devalued often acquire negative connotations and lose the cultural validation they previously enjoyed
Wist je dat?
Moslims bidden niet op straat in Iran, Saoedi-Arabië of andere moslimlanden—het is illegaal en onbeleefd, omdat het anderen stoort.
Ze doen het alleen in landen die ze veroveren, als een dominantie-strategie.
If we are going by the logic of Mehdi Hasan and Zohran Mamdani, then they are prime examples of settlers.
Mamdani was born in Uganda. Hasan came from Britain. They moved to a country built through centuries of immigration and became part of its political and social life. Nobody dares question their legitimacy. Nobody tells them to “go back.” And nobody insists they remain perpetual outsiders because they or their families came from somewhere else.
Yet they themselves will turn around and insist that Jews who immigrate to Israel can never truly belong there, no matter how many generations pass.
What makes this especially absurd is that Jews are not even being accused of settling in a land completely foreign to their history. They are being called settlers in the very place where Jewish identity, language, religion, and nationhood originated.
If moving to a country and becoming part of it is normal for everyone else, then it is normal for Jews too. If it is only illegitimate when Jews do it, then this was never really about migration, immigration, or settlers in the first place. It is simply a special rule created for one people and one people alone.
I’m not prepared to go along with it.
The day you start calling yourselves settlers is the day I’ll take your lectures about Jewish settlers seriously.
If you want a real Shabbat dinner experience, find a local @Chabad House.
If you want to have a performative Friday night meal with a group of people who hate Jews, Judaism and Israel, this is the event for you.
Why do some Muslims immediately feel attacked when Yazidis speak openly about persecution, genocide, and enslavement in Muslim-majority countries?
Why is it suddenly called “provocation” when Yazidis say they feel safer among Jews and Christians?
Yazidis have lived for centuries in Armenia, Georgia, Russia, and Ukraine without facing comparable campaigns of systematic extermination.
And even in the West, the persecution does not always stop, because Islamists bring their hatred of Yazidis with them.
Anyone who feels attacked by these facts should perhaps stop trying to silence the victims and start asking why their experiences are so uncomfortable to hear.
Hillary made an offhand comment about not wanting to bake cookies and it haunted her for the rest of her career, but this asshole sounds like a 4chan meth head and you wanna send him to the Senate. Fuck off. No, seriously- fuck you.
I wish the Democratic Party would defend its incumbents against the onslaught of Bernie’s DSA.
For all their talk about dark money, the DSA spends millions to unseat dedicated Democrats like Dan Goldman, and Democrats refuse to step up to defend their own.
The story here is not Jerry Seinfeld or what he said about Palestine.
The story here is that for 3 years Jews are being hounded by pro Palesitinian maniacs who go around with their phones harassing Jews for content on TikTok.
This needs to be said loud and clear.
Israel is not attacking Lebanon. They are targeting Hezbollah. An Iranian funded terror proxy that has struck Israel 2,000 times since the April ceasefire.
Israel has every right to defend itself. Don’t fall for the Iranian regime’s distraction.
Around Park Slope, near where the Park Slope Co-op is engaging in racist BDS policies RIGHT NOW, we sent a truck to tell everyone the truth.
BDS (Boycott, divestment, & sanctions) is a discriminatory, racist movement that’s causing illegal boycotts of Jewish-produced Israeli goods.
Say NO to racist policies by protecting Jewish commerce and SHOW UP to fight hatred.

All are welcome. Bring a friend and be a blessing. 🇺🇸🇮🇱❤️
🇮🇪 Dear People of Ireland,
We tried to warn you.
A Muslim migrant just tried to behead a man in the streets of Belfast. Now you're outraged, riots have broken out, and your streets are in chaos.
Israelis face this barbarism every day. Not one attack — thousands. Rockets, stabbings, beheadings, and slaughter from the same Islamic culture and ideology.
But for decades, Ireland condemned us. You tied our hands with boycotts, hate-filled rhetoric, and anti-Israel venom. You've built a reputation as one of the most anti-Israel and antisemitic countries in Europe. You wave Palestinian flags and embrace Muslim migration, but when the same evil lands on your doorstep, reality hits hard.
We told you clearly: Islamic jihad and barbarism aren't just after Israel. They're after you. Israel is just in the way.
This ideology is coming for you, your freedoms, and your way of life. We tried to warn you that open borders without integration, failed multiculturalism, and imported Islamic supremacism would end in blood on European streets. You called us racists and extremists.
The message is simple:
-Secure your borders.
-Deport those who bring this hate.
-Stop tying Israel's hands while we protect civilization for you.
-Face the truth: radical Islam isn't compatible with Western life.
Your history is one of resilience. Use it. Drop the virtue-signaling. Protect your people before more innocents pay the price.
@groove_sdc Bernie ...by any means necessary. "today’s politically amorous Islamist-leftist affair and its concomitant shoehorning of what was a contingent pact between Bolsheviks and Muslims into the fundamental identity politics of today’s ‘progressive’ Left. "
