@jananisays It’s like mine during the last month of Jewish holidays! Half of it is people enjoying their first PSL and the other half apples and honey and candles and Sukkot
@JWhoKnowsItAll @jdmiddleton55 I don’t know if it’s a universal thing, but I figured if I can do a small language change to include more people, why the heck not?
There are a lot people in the political space claiming to have zero tolerance for antisemitism, but when a moment arrives that demands holding accountable hatred against the Jewish community, there’s suddenly no shortage of hateful complicity by silence. It is wrong and cowardly.
I know exactly who needs to hear this, but a friendly reminder for everyone: hating Jews is not a mental illness and a mental illness isn't an excuse for hating Jews either.
One thing about being Jewish is we’re always disturbed, but never shocked or surprised, when a seemingly democratic country lurches toward fascism. It’s literally been instilled in us since childhood that it can happen. And we’re always the ones talking about it first.
