"Remembering the Holocaust does not mean waiting for gas chambers before we speak. It means recognizing how ordinary policies - immigration bans, detention regimes, and mass deportations - prepare the ground for mass violence." www.jpost.com/opinion/arti...

There is a chasm between longtime organizers and normies who are currently but not guaranteed to always be on our side, who also BTW believe that literally setting fire to a dumpster might reasonably result in arrest and also that assault might result in arrest with or without consent

Do you remember that one weird family in the neighborhood where you grew up whose kids didn't watch TV? I just realized we are that family now Crap 😂

Feb. 2 is the last day to register to vote and to submit an address change for Texas' midterm primaries. Here's what you need to know about checking your registration, registering to vote and submitting a name or address change. 🧵

Whenever you see a story about how liberals aren't making their conservative peers feel welcome enough, this is who they're talking about.

Prepare for very real antisemitic rhetoric coming your way. Remember to differentiate between Judaism and Jewish supremacy and Zionism. Do not allow people to dog whistle and smear Jewish people as a whole.

Organized religion trains brains to: • accept a separate New Year's just for trees • fear yet another shiur about what the number of seeds in a pomegranate represents • reject eating fruits grown in the first three years of the tree's life

Big account (200K+ followers) touting report from Holocaust denier/conspiracy theorist Chuck Johnson as though it's reliable, just because it's laundered through the Epstein files. Grossly irresponsibly post, with zero vetting, by law professor Jen Taub. Unfollowing, might re-follow if she deletes.

The kicker on the NYT coverage of the new IACC is embarrassingly bad. “The chelation vaccine hyperbaric oxygen gluten people represent us more than ASAN or Autism Society” is just brain worms. How is that the last word on a panel filled with kooks and quacks?

🧵 Yesterday in Masafer Yatta in the West Bank, settlers carried out a pogrom against Palestinian communities. Settlers carried out coordinated attacks on Palestinian villages, stealing hundreds of sheep, setting homes and land on fire, and violently assaulting residents. (1/3)

This was not an isolated incident. Just this week, settlers destroyed nearly 500 Palestinian-owned olive trees near Susya, and the last remaining families of Ras ‘Ein al-‘Auja, once home to about 800 people, were forced to flee after months of relentless violence. (2/3)

This violence is enabled by impunity: those responsible are rarely held accountable, allowing perpetrators to walk free. This is why U.S. sanctions on violent settlers matter. Without real consequences, this violence will continue to escalate. (3/3)

Doxxing a Senator is like murdering a corpse. You can’t do it, but it sounds terrible.

"The conditions in this facility are absolutely abysmal. They mix baby formula with water that is putrid. The food has bugs in it. One of my clients had appendicitis, collapsed in the hallway, was vomiting from pain, and the officials told him, take a Tylenol"

I see Andrew Huberman is getting a boost on CBS. Seems like a good time to remind people that Huberman is a manosphere pseudoscientist whose bad behavior both in and out of the lab has been swept under the rug for far too long

I agree that this is is about power and domination, but also, morale must be really suffering if they need to add the Super Bowl, World Cup and Olympics to the benefits package

I've been turning this over in my head all day. I don't feel harmed when people compare the present to what Jews in Europe went through. I think it's a reasonable comparison I also understand why some others feel harmed by the comparison; I think that's reasonable too.

Gentiles, I wholeheartedly encourage you to memorialize trans, gay, Roma, disabled, and political victims of the Holocaust, today. They deserve to be remembered. But, maybe, don’t treat this like a zero-sum game where it must be “reclaimed” from Jewish people.

This is both clarifying and hilarious.

After executing Alex Pretti on Saturday, ICE has shifted to primarily targeting bus stops and elementary schools in my community this week. I cannot overstate how much of the ICE activity in my community is just targeting places where little kids are.

Still early, but seems like 2026 might be another year of It's Not Paranoia If It's True

Two weeks ago I taught a couple of classes of Holocaust education at our local elementary school. One of the teachers commented, "So many of these children will never meet a survivor. How cool that your grandparents taught you so much" and I wanted to gouge out my own brain, not cool at all

I was always told that one of the central lessons of the Shoah is that legal, juridical regimes can still be immoral. The claim that Anne Frank was in Amsterdam "legally" is false, but more than that, the question "Was Anne Frank an illegal?" is so grossly missing the point of Holocaust remembrance.

Pretty much every facet of antisemitism can be expressed as some sort of double bind

We're kind of screwed as a society when it is in the financial interest and within the power of the third richest man in the world to systematically dismantle major news outlets

@eladn.bsky.social, I don't feel qualified to debunk this one - would you be able to help, I see that you follow this account?

@rachelpowers.myatproto.social just FYI, you appear to be following an account that assumes folks named Rothschild are "super rich" because... Jews, I'm guessing

I hope folks on here can recognize the antisemitism in this Because who do they always claim pays agitators? The Jews - they're saying Jews are the puppet masters of chaos and violence

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Y'all suck. I'm making meringues today because I'm awesome, but all you assholes who think disability or age should preclude public service can kiss my ass. Just be honest: you hate disabled people and you associate age with disability. I hope all of your meringues are soggy from now until forever

One interesting phenomenon about being disabled is the inversely proportional relationship between people treating me, a disabled person, like I'm lazy and my age. The older I am, the fewer people believe that I'm lazy — even though I have continued to lose ability.

I feel absolutely gaslit every time a friend tells me they still sleep well in this country Like yes I am very much not okay at the moment, but if you are, then which one of us is rational?

KIDNAPPED. You don’t arrest a child. The word you’re looking for is KIDNAPPED.

Terminally online Bluesky folks: A thread celebrating FDR, the country's first physically disabled president, see how trendy and cool I am celebrating Diversity (1/x) Also terminally online Bluesky folks: Nope. No way, no how. Narcolepsy is a bridge too far, this is disqualifying

What’s the business

Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."

Went in to volunteer teach math today and wound up teaching two 5th grade classes each an hour-long Holocaust lesson, grounded in my grandparents' experiences and branching from there I am exhausted, math is so much easier than what I did today

pulling this reflection on white silence/fear over here, too:

Teaching my kids to avoid my mistakes by making social media use appear supremely uncool #NobodyWantsToBeLikeMom #MomIsUncool #BringYourFriendsOverMaybeWeCanMemeTogether

Some of you all are way too far up your academic fields' asses This is Bluesky, a place rife with antisemitism that we call out, not a university lecture hall, where you make excuses why your colleagues didn't really mean what they said

Fellow progressive, Liberals and leftists... Sure, or unsure, what to think about what's happening in Iran Please watch this video ⬇️ (From a left-leaning progressive of Iranian ancestry) Please don't delegitimise us #DigitalBlackoutIran #IranianRevolution2026 #FreeIran

Jews: (read our holy texts in the languages that they were written) Christians: I cannot BELIEVE you have not familiarized yourself with one of the many shitty translations of my holy text that I assume everyone reads, these translations always work out so well for The Jews

I'm feeling the absence of JSX on here, does anyone know if she's doing alright these days?

This is a frustratingly common take, as if we weren't known as Bnei Yisrael long before we were known as Jews, as if Israel wasn't a political football in gentiles' antisemitism games before it became a modern nation with its own shitty policies, as if antisemitism wasn't an ancient hatred

The history of civilian mass detention on the basis of identity without due process or recourse (which is how I defined concentration camps in my history of them) shows that it invariably leads to permanent harm—and typically significant loss of life as well. The longer it goes on the worse it gets.

"What should we do now? Rachel asked the kids. Be Jewish! Addie shouted. Be more Jewish than ever!"
