REBLOGGING!!!

I’m going to post some OC content eventually so here’s the heads up for people when that happens..

Do you ever feel super productive for most of the week and then out of nowhere you one day is just stops and your brain becomes non stop tv static for hours on end?

It's a cruel subconscious ingraining of double standards, really. I absolutely suggest looking into actual, unbiased history of all this and only then can people reach an educated conclusion. But I doubt that many people would take that advice...

This probably won’t be super coherent, because I haven’t slept in 24 hours and I’m basically 80% caffeine, but I’ve been thinking about how western (usually white, though not always) goyim get mad whenever a Jew says “antizionism is usually a cover for antisemitism.” And how their answer is always, “my problem is Israel! Not Jews!”

Because here’s the thing: the west has a long, long history of culturally ingrained antisemitism. You may not think your hatred towards Israel and the diaspora Jews who have any connection to Israel is because it’s a Jewish state. But society has subconsciously primed you from birth to see Jews as inherently shady liars who have all the power and money and control, and who claim victimhood to hide this. You have been groomed to mistrust us, to see us as oppressors, to see us as intrinsically unethical. And you are aware that Israel is a Jewish state, regardless of whether you consciously think it matters. So when literally anything goes down in Israel/Palestine? Your first thought isn’t that these are two marginalized groups of people who were forced into the situation by both the west and the Middle East, then pitted against each other. Your first thought is that of course the Israelis are evil oppressors. They’re over-privileged white colonizers who have all the power and money and control. We need to make sure they all leave Israel, live under a second age of pogroms, or die (which they won’t, according to you, because they’re rich white people with a mansion in New Jersey). And you may believe that you don’t feel this way because they’re Jewish, but you don’t seem to realize that it’s the subconscious, ingrained antisemitism that not only leads you to all of these conclusions, but that also leads you to independently attach historically diaspora-focused antisemitic tropes—tropes that’s existed for thousands of years and have nothing to do with Israel—to Israelis and beyond.

And then you wonder why we don’t trust you.

I clicked thinking this was just a silly little comic but no, it wasn’t. However it’s super crucial to spread the message!

People still seriously kill sharks like this!? I can’t believe this!! Sharks are already treated badly enough!

You know I have an irrational fear of accidentally sending something to the wrong persons than the person you initially wanted to send it to and then you have to awkwardly explain that it was intended for someone else, but by the time you actually explain it’s too late for the both of you and the sendee just thinks you’re weird as a result

Dude regardless of who wins in this stupid election we’re all cooked.

Like…

SO cooked…

Ever since late middle school I've been weary on telling people that I'm Jewish. There weren't much others like me in my city other than my family and two other people in my high school.

With all the blatant anti-semitism throughout the years (especially now), I'm just tired, angry, low on hopes.

I guess it's become ingrained within my people that they expect they will be hurt and prosecuted from outsiders and others that have no idea what they are talking about. I'm angry that it's still happening, that even now many Goyim (non-Jews) choose to be ignorant and turn their nose away, simply because it’s not happening to them so “it’s not relevant” to them or some other BS excuse of theirs!!

Jewish culture is being terrified to tell people that you're jewish, even those who claim to be supportive, because of how rampet anti-semetism is

(Note that I'm actually half jewish but that I've been really in my jewish identity lately for obvious reasons)
