@dukepaaron Oh you meant the book not the antisemitism. Sorry about that but my post still stands.

@wiljames @sapphireangel We'll hate it together lol.

@dukepaaron I've come to believe that it was here pre-10-7 as well, it was just a little more dressed up/hidden, and we were maybe too blind to see it from our own political team. Well, the way you correct that mistake is to no longer consent to it/tolerate it. At least in my view. If we were closer to 10-7 I'd say everyone gets a chance to change, but we did that, and here we are, so at this point the ball's in their court and they have to make the first move and it will have to be one hell of a move.

@dukepaaron Her book is on my to-read list, but I've been reading her articles of late and yeah I'm just doing a much more blunt version of "People love dead Jews", except honestly at this point I think people are just fine with dead Jews and will happily take more of them, and if they can't get actual dead Jews they'll take fearful sad anxious Jews, and yet we should still stick our necks out for their causes, and I'm absolutely done with that bullshit.

@JamminJerry Yeah it probably will suck, but man the sleep has been amazing. And the food and other stuff but we won't go into that I'm not Eve Dallas lol.

@serge I think the problem with it is the over-universalization. The lessons Jews took from the Shoah are very different from the universal ones being touted as the "One True Lesson" and that's to the detriment of the Jews. And we need to stop participating in that, even though it will absolutely mean less funding for actual commemoration.

@dukepaaron @serge No. We don't. Down with the "Meet the Jew" bullshit. God this is just like the "Meet the Blind" bullshit that a bunch of us fought against for decades until we finally got it scrapped.
