Obsessive antizionist gaze

[Eitan Fischberger @EFischberger]

This was the top of the New York Times last night. The first thing every reader sees the moment they land on the homepage of the most influential news outlet on earth. All three stories about Israel.

There is a famous communications scholar named Maxwell McCombs who developed what is now called the "agenda setting theory."

His core finding is simple: The press is not very good at telling people what to think. It is extraordinarily good, however, at telling people what to think ABOUT.

And what the New York Times has decided you should think about, every single day, multiple times a day, forever and always, is Israel.

You cannot saturate the most influential newsroom in the English language with relentless coverage of one small country and then act surprised when the public becomes similarly hyper-fixated with it.

The animosity we constantly see is the predictable output of editorial selection, repeated daily, until it becomes the background music of how people think about the Jewish state.

A dream fulfilled

[Jonah Platt @JonahPlatt]

@LimitedGems @kylieoralobell Can’t say I ever had that thought… being in that show was my 90 minutes a day I got to be completely present and disconnected from the craziness outside - while playing a Jewish character written by a Jew and surrounded by allies. It was a gift!

“Antizionism is a hatred of Israel. Antizionists are people who hate Israel."

— Adam Louis-Klein @adam_louis52328

That's it. That's the definition. And it's enough.

Which sounds more plausible?

15 million Jews needed to be propagandized by Day School teachers and the Israeli government into a false understanding of their own history, values, and lived experience — to trick them into supporting Jewish sovereignty in the world’s only Jewish state? Or…

Israel’s 2.2 billion enemies used propaganda on billions of unsuspecting non-Jews around the world — in their openly stated mission to destroy the little Jewish Country that Could?

What is antizionism, really? It's not just "criticism of Israel."

It's bigotry. It's a systemic hatred against an entire country. And it's wrong.

Adam Louis-Klein @adam_louis52328 strips it back to the simplest, most honest definition – and it's one that changes how you see the entire debate.

This isn't about politics. This is about naming a bigotry for what it is.

You're Not Lost. You're Early.

Read my new issue on the moral clarity in 2026, the Jeremiah Effect, and why the confusion, the isolation, and the sense that reality has inverted are not signs of error, but are symptoms of rectitude.👇

In medieval times, they called it protecting Christianity.
In the 1930s, they called it protecting racial purity.
Today, they call it social justice.

The playbook has never changed. Only the branding has.

Antizionism is a hate movement. You want to “help Palestinians” or “hurt Israel” by boycotting a product made by Jews, Druze, & Arabs working together in a factory owned by Israeli Arabs (aka Palestinians who stayed) ?How does this make anything better for anyone? Support @Seedandmill !

You don't hate me because I'm bad.
You hate me because you don't know.
