Darius has already answered this, but just to expand: the Nazis considered race as a matter of bloodlines only. The language of the Wannsee conference makes clear that the Nazis weren’t interested in the religious practice of Judaism or not; to them, a Jew who, say, married a Catholic and converted to Catholicism was

Jewish people have been and likely always will be conditionally White at best. They are White when non-Jewish White people want to include them, and Jewish when those same people want to oppress them. It’s very easy for American BIPOC to overlook that and reduce it down to “Well, in the interactions I’ve seen they’re

Right?

As a jew, with Holocaust surviving granparents, and 10x more relatives who were exterminated, I just want to make an important point a lot of people do not know, There were more jews on the planet before the Holocaust than there are in the world today. The damage done to our ethno-religion, cultures and traditions is s

Pretty sure trying to tell the Jewish people that they have not been oppressed throughout history is not going to win you any Jewish friends.

Right? What a weird comment, unless that person thinks antisemitism is just fine because the Israeli government is horrible. Ugh

Nope nope nope. This is Whataboutism. Bringing up Israel whenever antisemitism is discussed is derailment.

Jews have been defined as a race by themselves and those that oppress them since before you were born.  All people a shitty.  Especially those that tell other people how to self define.

In the UK they use the term “Visible Minorities”.

It's really inappropriate to bring up Israel every time something antisemitic happens. 

She later added: “If the Klan is coming down the street, and I’m standing with a Jewish friend, and neither one—well, I’m going to run—but if my friend decides not to run, they’ll get passed by most times, because you can’t tell who’s Jewish. It’s not something that people say, ‘Oh, that person is Jewish,’ o=....

I mean she's not wrong about Whoopi's "questionable" stances not getting enough scrutiny John Oliver even had a whole bit about some weird shit she's said over the years on his show a while back. 

More privileged Asian-American communities now have the choice of accepting conditional political benefits conferred by cooperating with white, elitist institutions, or instead embracing solidarity with poorer and less privileged Asians and all other communities of color.

if you understand what the evil hamas terrorists stand for (see their charter) and understand their extreme bigotry (toward anyone not like them), you wouldn’t comment like this. This Imagine video was done with good intent; it was certainly goofy and perhaps cringey but just something light-hearted that she and

If that’s true, how would the solution be to make Israeli civilians less safe? I don’t know that I would be moved to tears by the prospect of them *not* getting killed by indiscriminate rocket fire, but I’m not the progressive golden child.

the human beings that are impacted by these decisions”

Israel gave news organisations warnings to allow them to evacuate. Clearly those news organisations are still reporting. Hamas’ stated goal is to destroy Israel, and Hamas deliberately parks itself in civilian buildings. Israel is allowed to defend herself, even if she is the stronger party. Israel has offered a

I wish the article would have shared the greater context for the Israeli police actions. It still sounds grossly excessive to me (the rubber bullets part), but it came after thousands of Arab protestors threw stones at the police. It wasn’t just for shits and giggles as this article would seem to imply.

From river to sea? What do you think that means? You are most definitely an anti-Semite! Where will Jews live if your “river to sea” wish materializes? Remind me again which Arab majority country allows Jews to love freely within its borders (or serve in government)? Oh right, there are none. In Israel Arabs are

The best question to ask a BDS supporter to know if they are reasonable or maybe not so much is“Do you think Israel has a right to exist?”
