There has never been a better time to accept and vocalize that Jews and the Israeli government are not the same thing. Yes, the Israeli government has worked hard for decades to make us believe opposing its actions is inherently antisemitic. But it isn’t true. It never was.
feel like the casual antisemitism prompted by epstein is bleeding beyond X. i don't care for it.
Absolutely fucking vile how quickly antisemitism is now spreading on the left.
Fix your fucking heads
Great conversation with @andreapitzer.bsky.social today on @jamellebouie.net’s newsletter messaging-custom-newsletters.nytimes.com/dynamic/rend...
If you are wondering what words the all-male Congress found so "blasphemous" that they felt compelled to literally scrape them off the monument, they were: ''Woman, first denied a soul, then called mindless, now arisen, declared herself an entity to be reckoned.''
The only immigration crisis this country has ever had is nativism.

Yeah, baby! @rerbelding.bsky.social ♥️

Marty worked at the Post for 60 years. Not a typo. SIXTY YEARS. Until, apparently, today.
When they say Me Too "went too far," they mean "got too close."
I understand it's hard for some to use the term concentration camp, even for those horrified by what's happening. And there are settings (e.g., court) where it may not be helpful today. The key thing to realize is that there's an arc of how detention regimes tend to go, and we're recognizably on it.
A genius.
my grandmother, an Auschwitz survivor, was Anne Frank’s neighbor in Amsterdam, and Oma thinks this comparison is perfectly apt
On Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember the millions who were brutally murdered by Nazi terror and in concentration camps. Let today be a reminder for all people to confront antisemitism, fascism and race hatred wherever they threaten human freedom.
The march is now passing the Chicago city hall / Cook County hall building. The chant goes up,
"Minnesota don't you fear, we, the people, are right here"
Dave Matthews and Tim Ryenolds playing Neil Young’s Ohio last night and ends with some Rage Against the Machine.
There’s a rally going on in Boston rn and they’re chanting “we’re not cold, we’re not afraid, MN taught us to be brave!” and I might cry
Yes.
It makes Jews much less safe when we presume all antisemitism comes from Muslims, and imply it couldn’t possibly be Christians.
Sincerely,
A Jew who lived in Jackson, loved living there, wore a yarmulke every day, and is unsurprised a white, religious Christian man set fire to the synagogue there
Feels like a good day to introduce everyone to my new favorite song, "Nazi," by [checks notes]..... Chumbawamba
"They're out there burning houses down and peddling racist lies
And we'll never rest again until every Nazi dies"

Today once again proved that everyday citizens protesting their government are braver than the titans who own the largest media corporations, run the biggest law firms and lead the most powerful technology companies.
I need people to wrap their minds around the fact that here in Minneapolis, ICE broke the window of a vehicle yesterday, pepper sprayed the occupants, and arrested them, and shot another observer in the face today, and OBSERVERS ARE STILL GOING OUT TO PROTECT THEIR NEIGHBORS AT MASSIVE PERSONAL RISK
to give ICE the benefit of the doubt is to be an agent of ICE — that’s what benefit means
Let's do it! Happy New Year to you and yours too.
Ron just read me this post out loud on the couch and I logged in specifically to like it.
If you're in the DC area, the USHMM usually has a survivor in the main hall from Monday-Friday to meet people and answer questions. If you DM me (or ask @andreapitzer.bsky.social for my email), I can give you more details and recommendations of when to come

I got "brain rot" and then "mid" so....not looking great for me this year
You're right, it barely scrapes metadata--I use it at the beginning of my process, so I'm inputting that manually (since I'm pulling pdfs of docs I copied in archives). And yeah, useless as a draft manager, I think. It does detect dupes now, fwiw, but doesn't sound viable for you.
huh, I just drag and drop pdfs from my desktop--but depends on what other kind of info you want to import, I guess. Hope you can find a system that works for you and your workflow! It's so stressful to feel like your research is getting away from you.
