You can post the most vile antisemitism you want on Threads but this got removed for “promoting violence”. Oy vey!

jews: please can you support us, or at the very least refrain from being violently antisemitic

goyim: BUT ZIONISM??? BUT ISRAEL???

[ldragoon]

not-so-friendly reminder (because i'm tired of being nice): when you say israelis are europeans who need to "go back to their own countries" & deny jewish indigeneity to the levant, you are spreading an antisemitic conspiracy theory while wearing a progressive mask.

Director knows very little about children. Hires 9-12 year old to deliver lines written for a 5-7 year old.

no, i do not believe this level of delusion about the pandemic being “over” is sustainable. i have noticed people behaving in ways they never would have before c19, like they know deep down that things are not OK and they’re scared. international travel, huge parties, etc. i don’t know. i guess i’ve been surprised and disappointed by mass human cruelty and indifference before but i really do believe there will be a tipping point. once activists can catch their fucking breath? maybe? it took 10 years of AIDS before ACT UP took to the streets. i don’t want to wait 10 years. i’ll push as hard as i fucking can but unfortunately i’m close to bed-bound by long covid at the moment. i do not want to die. c19 activism feels like a tipping point for climate change action, anticapitalist action, and abolition action. this can be a radicalizing moment. they made the US slightly more accessible for a MINUTE and then yanked it away but we *saw* it. we saw it!!!!!!!!!! efforts to squash c19 precautions go hand-in-hand with squashing anti-police protests: they know that the summer 2020 uprisings were able to happen because enough people, for a brief moment, were freer than they had ever been in this fucking evil country. when people are given resources, they give a shit. cops were the only maskless faces in the streets of minneapolis and that is not a coincidence. the old world is fucking scared and wants you to get sick and die. c19 deaths keep climbing, your yard is burning or flooding or bogged down by smoke, cops have killed more people each year since 2020. that’s the “normal” everybody is trying to convince you it’s sooooo fun to go back to. fuck off. fuck off. there will be a crack and we will kick it open

When I was a kid I absolutely loved everything Anne McCaffrey wrote. But then I grew up and realized she was a homophobic misogynist. So no, I wouldn’t recommend any of those books for kids today. And it’s sad I had to settle for them in the first place.

Live your life so you at least entertain the poor teenagers in the future who’ll stuck tracking your online presence for their digital sciences & humanities classes.👍🏻

Word.

oscar isaac wearing a star of david AFTER saying himself in an interview “I’m not jewish” and then playing multiple ethnicity and culturally jewish characters (one being a very antisemitic portrayal) is not “proof” that he’s actually jewish. if he’s converting, that’s his business, but he needs to stop pretending he’s jewish for some perceived clout. it’s fucking disgusting and y’all defending him are an embarrassment.

What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.

"...But last August, the branch cut off its Wi-Fi after hours. It’s the only public library branch in the city that discontinues Wi-Fi at night, and the policy continues today, despite a simultaneous citywide push to increase internet access for San Franciscans with lower incomes."

...sigh...

I certainly hope after the last five years editors will be much more forgiving re:what they consider “realistic” plotting.

This always cracks me up.
