No you don't get it, I'm a Good Person. You don't understand. I'm a Good Person which makes it okay for me to think violently about the Enemy, who is Bad Person. I'm commenting "you should be violently murdered" because I'm Good Person and you're Bad Person. You think saying that to someone is fucked up?? You should be violently murdered, you're probably Bad Person anyway
Today is the remembrance day for all the Jewish people of Crimea that were killed during WW2. According to the 1939 census, there were 65 452 Jewish people living in Crimea, among whom there were probably more than 7000 Krymchaks. Krymchaks are a separate ethnolinguistic community of the Jewish population, who speak the Crimean Tatar language and are one of the indigenous people of Crimea. Records state about 40 000 victims among Jews and Krymchaks during WW2. Researchers state that the Nazis killed about 80% of the Krymchaks from their pre-war number. The loss of the main part of the ethnic community had irreversible consequences. Among the exterminated were almost all representatives of the older age group - the keepers and bearers of traditions, language and culture.
Everyone queue up this meme I made for next week
"Antizionists": Israel needs to stop doing any military action that might kill civilians, hostages be damned!
Israel: *launches an EXTREMELY targeted cyber-attack against Hezbollah members by making their pagers explode, injuring (mostly) ONLY people carrying said Hezbollah pagers, making them by definition NOT civilians*
"Antizionists": No, not like that.
There is literally NOTHING Israel can do that won't enrage antisemites. They won't be satisfied unless Israel sits back and lets its people be slaughtered.
It is Oct. 7th. One year. A year since the worst massacre of Jews in a single day since the Holocaust and a year since I witnessed on my dash, in real time, people and blogs I enjoyed and respected actually celebrating this utter depravity and imagining this absolutely evil position gave them moral superiority. An entire year of the total dehumanisation of raped, brutalised, and kidnapped human beings. An entire year of atrocity denying, victim blaming justification of the actions of genocidal antisemitic terrorists. An entire year of hostages being held captive in Gaza being subject to unimaginable treatment, for nothing but the โcrimeโ of daring to live.
An entire year of a repulsive and terrifying global explosion in antisemitic abuse and violence, of Jewish pain and grief being ridiculed, sneered at, and ignored. An entire year of the left loudly and proudly betraying every single ideal they supposedly stood for. An entire year of so-called progressives and human rights activists throwing Jews and Israelis under the bus and patting themselves on the back for it.
My Jewish and Israeli friends, I know today is a painful and traumatic day, as it has been a painful and traumatic year. I hold you all in my heart and my thoughts today and every day and I stand with you unreservedly and unapologetically. Your strength and resilience in the face of unspeakable cruelty, your deep love for those who have been lost and your endless hope for those still in captivity has been inspiring and humbling.
May the hostages return home safe to their families and may there be peace ๐๐๐ฎ๐ฑ๐
