Here Is A Pup In A Kippah For Your Happiness 💙

Can I say I think it's insane how "xenophobia is fine if their government is bad enough" is like a mainstream liberal opinion to have. Also just deeply funny to think that way as an american. You think random people should be hated for where they're from except for you? War crimes capital of the world? Please be serious. Or is it like a guilt thing. Idk

There's this specific dread that happens when you keep Shabbat and Yom Tov in a way that means you don't get news until after the holiday. That pit in your stomach when you turn your phone back on, waiting to see what horrifying things happened while you were observing the sacred day. Who desecrated it by shedding blood? What new horrors await?

Sometimes you get lucky, and things are relatively quiet.

Other times, you come back to the news that at least 11 innocent Druze children were dismembered by a Hezbollah rocket while they were out playing soccer.

I remember the first time I really felt this effect, coming back from Shabbat to the news that eleven Jews had been massacred in Pittsburgh. This past year has been a prolonged and repeated version of that, and shows no signs of slowing down.

It almost makes you want to avoid going offline at all, except that then you never get a break. It makes it so hard to want to keep Shabbat, knowing what may be on the other end of it.

So, as a Jewish Club board member at my college , I was tasked with making a sukkot meal flyer but the details kept on changing.

At first we were getting bagels catered, then it was pizza, and now it’s completely unknown. Then the dates kept changing - from the 19th to the 20th to the 18th ETC .

So this is what I have so far.

I really don’t know how we made it out of the desert.

can we get a break for 5 fucking minutes

I don't think people on this website understand what "you should love jewish people more than you hate nazis" means

do you hate nazis because they're fun to hate on and easy to ratio? or because of the material harm they have caused, are causing, and will continue to cause? when you see a nazi, do you see an acceptable target? or do you see an active threat? what do you do to help jewish people outside of these situations? anything at all? do you have positive views on judaism? do you try to better yourself by listening to jewish voices on topics of bigotry?

I'm not going to complain about a nazi getting punched for being a nazi, but the issue isn't as simple as just punching nazis. you need to love jewish people more than you hate nazis if you want to address the root causes of antisemitism

Someone shared this in my conversion groupchat and I thought y'all would appreciate it too.

saw this in tel-aviv yesterday
