This is how people talked in the middle ages when they convinced themselves that Jews poisoned wells which they thought caused the black death.

Same libels, same caricatures of Jews different century..

We have been here before, we will live, we will survive, and in 10 years, you'll look retarded.

Мо�� пост с рекламой солнцезащитного крема в Тель-Авиве внезапно взлетел , набрав более 600К просмотров. Неожиданн�� на него слетелись фрипластелинцы. Основной наратив у них такой: израильтяне пользуются кремом, потому что их кожа не приспособлена для солнца палестины, а значит они чужие на этой земле. Особенно яркие комменты были от Хаттиба из Дании, Мухаммеда из Финляндии и Ахмеда из Швеции.

[Adam Fisher @AdamRFisher]

This is a devious rhetorical trick. Labeling someone a “Nakba survivor” is designed to evoke instant sympathy and a false sense of moral clarity, but it is little more than taxpayer-funded propaganda.

Consider the absurdity: roughly 99% of Palestinian Arabs alive in 1949 survived the war and its displacements. Calling the displaced a “survivor” stretches the word beyond recognition. It is a newly coined term, crafted in academia and activist circles long after the events.

Its real genius lies in creating false equivalence. It places ordinary Palestinian civilians who were displaced amid a war their own leaders launched on the same moral plane as Holocaust survivors (of whom only about one-third emerged alive).

It airbrushes away the ~6,000 Jews killed in 1948, elevates the ~12,000 Arab deaths, and erases the thousands of Jews forcibly expelled from the Old City of Jerusalem and other areas.

By anointing the displaced as sacred “survivors,” the term invites us to forget that the Nazi-aligned Palestinian leadership rejected the UN partition plan, chose war to prevent any Jewish state, and promised quick victory while urging Arabs to flee.

It glosses over Israel’s Declaration of Independence, which explicitly invited Arab inhabitants to “participate in the upbuilding of the State on the basis of full and equal citizenship.” And it conveniently overlooks the ~150,000 Arabs who stayed put, accepted Israeli citizenship, and whose descendants now form over 20% of Israel’s population.

This is international grievance politics pushed by the Mayor of New York City, who genuinely believes that Palestinians should be able to “return to their homes” – a nonsensical idea designed to justify perpetual victimhood and violence.

The move weaponizes real civilian hardship while inverting roles: turning a war of choice and rejectionism into an unprovoked “catastrophe” inflicted by the intended victims. It sustain grievance and does not nothing to advance peace.

Najbardziej przeraża jak ta Ukrainka operuje językiem polskim. Za kilka lat takie osoby przenikną do służb, instytucji, urzędów. I nie zapomną o tym, że są Ukraińcami. Wiele z nich będzie klasycznymi śpiochami ukraińskich służb. To straszna wizja.

[Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib @afalkhatib]

Eyal Waldman is a decent and honorable man whom I have gotten to know closely since October 7, and was one of the first Israelis to reach out to me online once I had grown a presence following the tragedy of my family’s killing in Gaza by Israeli airstrikes. Despite losing his daughter to Hamas’s heinous massacre on October 7, he has been relentlessly pursuing radically pragmatic initiatives, and we have both been in multiple spaces, conferences, events, and arenas to discuss ways in which Palestinians and Israelis can both have safety, security, self-determination, and freedom. He not only supports peace and the inevitable need to establish a Palestinian self-rule because it is the moral thing to do, but he also recognizes it is imperative for protecting Israel’s long-term interests and needs as a Jewish and democratic state.

The blind hatred by the so-called “pro-Palestine” activists against Eyal here is typical behavior of brownshirt-esque militias who simply hear someone’s identity and react blindly despite his goodwill gesture and outreach. The “pro-Palestine” mafia fails to appreciate that there will never be a free or independent Palestine without making alliances with broad segments in Israel, including in government, civil society, business, and faith communities. You don’t have to agree with everything Eyal says or believes to acknowledge that he is a decent, honorable, and a class-A human being, the embodiment of pursuing peace and reconciliation across entrenched narratives and deep personal trauma.

I think at some rate product designers lost the plot. We were meant to be inventors, thinkers, and a bridge between humans and the message or invention.

We aren’t meant to merely declutter, simplify, or make things pretty.

Designers are meant to make the very thing humans will be working with, in every imaginable way possible.

We are not rectangle builders, we are not pixel pushers, we are inventors and builders pushing to communicate to humans or let humans communicate to our inventions.
