It’s now almost certain the tunnels found at the Chabad synagogue in Brooklyn were designed for child sex tracking. This footage released shows the Jewish synagogue had dystopian tunnels made with stained mattresses that have been sent for forensic analysis. Items such as baby…

Allah is just Arabic for God. The fact that a high schooler felt comfortable weaving her own tradition's word for God into the American pledge of allegiance is a tribute to America at its best. These people criticizing her are America at its worst.

1. I finally wrote my unified theory of Trump's anti-Semitism. Why does someone w/ Jewish family & friends regularly say anti-Semitic things? The short version: Trump believes all the anti-Semitic stereotypes about Jews, but sees those traits as admirable.

FYI, if you start a reply to me with "You Jews" and it does not end with "have done a real service to this country through your outsized contribution to the ice cream industry," I will probably block you.

You will be shocked to discover that Steve King, who endorsed a fringe anti-Semite for Toronto mayor and repeats openly white nationalist talking points, has misidentified Alex Soros, son of George Soros, as the whistleblower, despite him never working in government.

Say it with me: If your response to anti-Semitism in your own political camp is to point to anti-Semitism in your opponent's political camp, you don't really care about fighting anti-Semitism. You just like using hate as a politically convenient cudgel to serve your own ends.

Whenever something antisemitic happens in the culture, there's a well-meaning call to "study the Holocaust" or follow, say, the Auschwitz Museum on Twitter. But people need most to learn about learn how Jews live, not how they died. Who they are—not what antisemites say they are.

A lot of people are unfamiliar with recent Gaza developments and so do not know that Israel accepted the Paris framework for a truce/hostage deal but Hamas has not. As a result, they completely misunderstand what Harris is saying, which is that Hamas should say yes to the deal.

There are people tweeting out that the VP called for an immediate ceasefire without noting the second part…that she’s putting the onus on Hamas. As a result, people who don’t dig deeper think there’s been a significant shift from the White House….there hasn’t been.

Why Twitter will always be broken & mislead millions: 1. People prefer the joy of going viral or having their political biases confirmed to being truthful 2. There are no formal or informal consequences for sharing comforting lies 3. So incentives all run in the worst direction

Non-Jews don't get to decide who is a good Jew and who is a bad Jew. Non-Jews who make lists of bad Jews and suggest that Jews who don't share their particular ideology aren't real Jews are not friends of the Jews. They're the people who make it easy to attack and persecute Jews.

These takes have gotten so extraordinarily ignorant that normie offline people have shared them with me because the tweets achieved escape velocity in their awfulness. (At least half of Israeli Jews today are Mizrahim who hail from Muslim and Arab countries that pushed them out.)

Here's one reason why social media is such a vector for misinformation: It's hard to go viral with so many voices talking at once. One way to cut through the noise and get attention is to say something no one else is saying. It's a lot easier to do that if you just make stuff up.

Important that the BBC blurred this person's face because saying something like this about Hamas in Gaza is extraordinarily dangerous. A reminder that the terrorist regime does not represent so many of the people on the ground, whatever you might read on this site.

Hamas was elected in 2006 and has never allowed another election since. They never won a majority of the votes, and most of the Gazan population today was too young to be eligible to vote in 2006.

Congressman Paul Gosar, in his official newsletter this week, linked to an article praising him in a neo-Nazi site. And we know that he *knew* it was antisemitic because he removed the antisemitic part from the headline!

Remarkably disingenuous thread that blames Israel/Zionism for killing Yiddish instead of the people who killed most Jewish Yiddish speakers: the Nazis. This site always finds a way to sink to new lows for partisan ends.

some more info on this 🧵: hebrew has been a liturgical (used only in religious contexts) language since its 'extinction' in the year 200 CE. this is why jewish communities around the world have their own languages (incl. yiddish, ladino, judeo-arabic). prior to the zionist (1/6)

On the right, there's a perpetual effort to assail American Jews for supporting "anti-Israel" Democrats. On the left, there's a perpetual effort to make American Jews in progressive spaces answer for Israel. These are both racist constructs that collapse all Jews into a monolith.

What so many who interrogate American Jews about their Israel views do not get is that most American Jews do not think much about Israel, because they are *Americans* with American concerns who do not define themselves by what's happening somewhere thousands of miles away.

Yair is a biblical name that is popular across multiple countries and religions. I am an American Jew named after an ancestor killed in the Holocaust. I feel lucky to be an American, where my name has not been a barrier to success, despite the abiding bigotry of people like you.
