“No one is asking Lisa Murkowski, Nancy Pelosi, Joe Biden, Chris Christie, Bobby Jindal or Jeb Bush whether they agree with Pope Francis”

They aren’t claiming to be at the forefront of an intersectional progressive movement.

Thank you! As an LGBTQ Jewish person it does mean a good deal to hear this. I will always work to reciprocate allyship as much as I can.

Wow. This whole article is advanced level gaslighting. How depressing.

No, it’s not “complicated”. No, Mallory is not a victim. She is being asked to do the *bare minimum* to acknowledge that Jews, gays, and trans folk have the right to exist. She got herself into this situation.

This man thinks Jews invented trans…

You could try and actually listen to Jewish people who are also upset about Billy Graham. There are many.

People die for being Jewish in the US. Nicolas Cruz said that he wanted to kill Jewish people and he made sure he did. According to the FBI’s own statistics, Jews comprise the majority of sectarian-based hate crime…

“And once again white women manage to demand that black women be held to a standard that they never are.”

No, it’s actually Jews and LGBTQ folk asking that the leader of a supposed “intersectional” movement do the bare minimum and condemn a person who objects to their EXISTENCE.

You also seemed to have completely…

So anti-Semitism is fine because Bibi’s government is mean. Got it.

How is that any different than saying racism against blacks is *ok* because of Robert Mugabe?

No, she hasn’t. Anything less than a condemnation of Farrakhan and a distancing from him is not fucking good enough. Instead, what we’ve gotten is gaslighting about how “complicated” it all is. It’s about as “complicated” as associating with Richard Spencer. That wouldn’t be viewed as nuanced and it shouldn’t be.…

No. it’s just about Farrakhan. Either you believe Jews, gays, and trans folk are people or you don’t.

As long as people in progressive spaces keep trying to conflate valid fears about anti-Semitism with Zionist apologetics this problem will only get worse. It’s gaslighting. Anti-Semitism is wrong 100% of the time…

Characterizing Jews as just another brand of white people is deeply problematic and a perfect example of how anti-Semitism move in progressive spaces. Jews are characterized as just another brand of white people (about half the world’s Jews aren’t actually) and the belief that non-POC groups couldn’t possibly be the…

This entire comment is gaslighting bullshit. You are trying to derail the conversation to make it about Israel. It’s about anti-Semitism, homophobia, and transphobia. FULL STOP. Mallory is not a victim. She is being asked to do the *bare minimum*.

Either Jews and LGBTQ folk are people or they are not.

I just don’t understand why I should care. I don’t mind being tricked as long as it’s good. And this was better than the vast majority of music videos out there right now.

It was pretty obvious they were in Wakanda in the trailer. Why is this some sort of shocking revelation that necessitates its own post? Who did not already know this?

Rest assured that your son is probably already masturbating everywhere and has already found a way to access all sorts of filthy stuff. Best to just admit defeat and try and guide them the best way possible through all this. Trying to put them in a cage is a losing battle.

You’re switching the goal posts.

I could discuss Ashkenaz domination of Israeli politics all day, But we’re talking about the whole country.

(You’re also way underestimating how white passing a lot of Arabs are.)

The Hebron massacre was *one* such incident that was part of a series of massacres that happened more frequently with the rise of Arab nationalism, like the Farhud in Baghdad, which validated the entire thesis of Zionism that Jews would never be safe until they had a state of their own. Interesting though how you had…

The skin color of most Israelis is brown. Most Israeli Jews are Mizrahi and Sephardic (aka from the middle east and north Africa) not Ashkenazi (European). Arabs and Jews in Israel are virtually indistinguishable, unless they are wearing clothing that makes it obvious.

Too bad modern genetics proves the exact opposite.

By all means, don’t let that get in the way of your racist erasure of an entire group of people’s history.

“Jews lived there for hundreds of years in peace with Muslims”

No this is a myth designed to bolster the narrative that everything was fine until those evil, greedy Jew started actually campaigning for their rights.

If everything was fine them please tell me what the fuck things like this were about?

Palestinians, Philistines, or Canaanites”

Not the same group of people at all. Philistines were non-Semitic coastal people who showed up from the Aegean. The name “Palestine” was used by the Romans specifically to purge the land of its Jewish roots by naming it after their ancient enemy.

Jews are native and indigenous…

TIL: Jewish refugees fleeing European white supremacy and/or who were systemically purged from the middle east by Arab nationalists (who themselves reside there due to actual imperialism) are “imperialists”.

Yep, a bunch of Jews just woke up one day and decided to be mean to Arabs. That’s totally what happened.
