Yes, those Israelis protesting at the Gaza border are sick and openly genocidal. Their actions and rhetoric deserve the strongest possible condemnation. But calling Israeli society “the most genocidal society on earth” is a disgusting act of collective dehumanization.

You can’t dehumanize an entire population for the actions of a group—we, as Palestinians, know exactly what that feels like. After October 7th, the world rushed to dehumanize all of us because of the actions of a few.

No society is immune to extremism. But Israeli society is also home to people who take to the streets day after day, holding photos of Gaza’s dead children and demanding an end to the war. Even at the Gaza border yesterday, there were Israelis who showed up to confront those extremist demonstrators.

Blanket vilification is lazy, dangerous, and no different from the hatred and racism inflicted on Palestinians. We should reject collective demonization no matter who the target is.

Enough. Stop it.

Overhearing a bunch of teenagers in Jerusalem discussing who to support in today’s World Cup game.

Teen 1: “Who should we be rooting for, France or Morocco?”

Teen 2: “Well, who’s more antisemitic?”

Teen 3: “France, bro. They’re the most antisemitic. We’re rooting for Morocco.”

@Reddit My account was suspended for "hate speech" which apparently includes calling out other users for blatantly antisemitic rhetoric and slurs. Is this really how reddit wants to manage its community?

@EKW_Hashmi @iamufohunter Curious, the only people I have ever countered who think that Jews think goy is derogatory is non Jews. Almost like that isn't the opinion us Jews have...

[Benjamin Wenger @BengerMarques]

@BriannaWu Yup. I'm not sure I can vote for Democrats ever again. Amazingly they have managed to make trump look like a better option. Truly an incredible achievement.

And I want to be clear, I have never voted for trump and voted Dem exclusively for all but a few local elections.

@jvgraz @MattDane552022 @EYakoby you are making a positive claim, you have to prove it

@Gokus_Lawyer @kylegriffin1 yes but overwhelmingly likely not in time to impact the midterms

[Richard Carback @rcarback]

I am devastated by the news that @Fame21Moore has passed away unexpectedly. He and I have worked together for years, and we spent a lot of time talking and helping each other. He meant a lot to many and this is an incredible loss.

My condolences to the family. RIP Darren. 💔

@AnthropicAI are you aware that Claude cannot look at this page in your docs https://t.co/LxbvuwtgMw because it contains the test trigger string and triggers the classifier? Thought you should know.

[αιamblichus @aiamblichus]

I shared Anthropic's Assistant Axis study with Claude. This is the first time I've seen it get angry

@JazzmineBudge @JGreenbergSez Zionisim is and has always been first and foremost a Jewish term for believing in our right to self determination in our homeland, Israel.

The idea that other groups get to redefine it is fundamentally repressive.

[Jonathan Greenberg @JGreenbergSez]

“The antisemite will accuse a Jew not because they think the Jew is guilty, but because they enjoy forcing the Jew to turn out his pockets.”

Don’t turn out your pockets. Don’t provide explanations - they don’t care.

Arm yourselves. Make our buildings hard targets. Promise a price for their behavior.

@Uber I am in late stage liver failure and had to stand out in the cold in the middle of nowhere for 20 minutes waiting for another ride. I now am freezing and having difficulty warming up.

You driver has put my life at risk.

[Benjamin Wenger @BengerMarques]

@Uber I was just kicked out of a car by one of your driver's who claimed he picked up the wrong person. He didn't, he used my name and then just lied. And claimed the ride was completed successfully on your app.
