the dumbing down of nazism to the point where people think it’s represented by vague notions of general evil like “the dark side” in star wars is so fucking offensive i don’t know how to put it into coherent sentences

if you think antisemitism and racism are such simplistic issues that every “evil” character represents an irl nazi and we can fix it all by symbolically blowing up a fictional death star full of them you honestly have no fucking business using those terms

so few people actually give a shit about jewish people enough to have spent 5 minutes reading about antisemitism to understand that it didn’t begin and end with hitler, to have any context whatsoever about our culture or history or current serious threats to both, but everyone thinks they have the right to throw these token phrases around to prove a point on frivolous shit like a movie about space wizards. because they saw inglourious basterds once

sorry everyone, i forgot that being a shipper invalidates my voice about my own heritage lol my mistake

“I’m against antisemitism except if it’s directed at shippers. In that case I’m feeling more meh about it :)”

antis-delete-your-blogs-pls-thx

Friendly reminder that when we Jewish shippers speak out about this we get called the k slur and told to go back to Israel so maybe shut the fuck up with that “antisemitism doesn’t apply to Jewish shippers” horseshit thanks

Holocaust Analogies

People frequently invoke the Holocaust when speaking of large-scale discrimination in the modern era, and at first glance, this might even make sense. After all, if people are subject to abuse for an arbitrary aspect of themselves that they cannot change, if they are threatened with death due to these characteristics, surely the comparison is apt? No.

There is only one Holocaust. There will only ever be one Holocaust. It was a specific moment in time that transpired as the result of countless years of oppression and discriminatory practices, coupled with a political climate that bred it like an opportunistic infection.

No one but Holocaust survivors are Holocaust survivors. No one but Jews are Jews. No one but the Rroma are Rroma. No one but the Nazis are Nazis. No one but Hitler is Hitler.

Comparing anything to the Holocaust, no matter how terrible, does nothing but minimize the real, actual human tragedy of the Holocaust. Real, human lives, human stories, human hopes, brutally taken, murdered, ripped apart. Families, gone. Towns, gone. History, culture, gone. Lives, gone.

Millions of real people died in the Holocaust. All you do when you use Holocaust rhetoric to support your faulty arguments is to disservice them and all those who survived them. Stop using dead Jews to support your faulty rhetoric.

antisemitism neither started nor ended with the Holocaust

It’s a cycle of violence and hatred and oppression that’s existed for centuries and continues to this day.

hi, i'm sorry if this has been asked but in your powerpoint you said that the tumblr sj community is guilty of antisemitism. what kind of things has it done? also, i love your blog!

debigotizer answered:

I’ll take this one since I’m the blog’s resident Jew. Oy vey, where do I start…

SJ community loves to police Jewish identity and silence actual Jews when they talk about their own identities. This usually happens in context of either “Are Jews White?” or “Jewishness is just a religion” conversations. In reality, Jews are an ethnoreligious group that ethnically originated in the middle east, and while some ethnic Jews have light skin, it’s actually due to centuries of forced assimilation in European and Slavic countries through rape, which is a big reason why Jewishness is matrilineal. Furthermore, there exist Jews who do not look white at all. There are black, brown, and asian Jews who are all ethnically Jewish, and these conversations erase them.
“Jewish privilege”. Fact: It’s not a thing. It’s actually a very common anti-semitic trope that says that Jews run everything so they are not oppressed. Jews are oppressed, and face anti-semitic violence.
“Anti-semitism is not just about Jews, there are other semitic people.” While yea, there are other semitic people, the term “anti-semitism” was created by Germans in the 19th century to refer specifically to the hatred of Jews because it sounded more scientific.
Blaming anti-semitic violence in Europe on the actions of Israel. I see this literally every single day on this site, and it’s very upsetting. Jews that live in the diaspora are not responsible for Israel’s actions, and especially should not be suffering at the hands of white people in Europe under the guise of anti-zionism.
Finally, and this is a big pet peeve of mine. The only people I ever see reblogging posts about anti-semitism are other Jews. Even a lot of my non-Jewish followers will reblog posts about racism, sexism, homophobia, etc. but ignore posts about anti-semitism, and that as a Jew makes me feel unsafe.

That’s enough for now. If you’re interested in learning more about Jewish identity and anti-semitism, you are welcome to check out my personal blog: yochevedke. I discuss that stuff a lot.

Everytime I post political stuff here some antisemitist person(s) finds the post via the searches and blows every dog whistle they got. The post doesn’t even have to be about the Jewish candidate in the race. This is why you cannot sit out of voting. Voting lowers risk factors even if you don’t respect the person you are voting for. Communities who have had an uptick in hate crime need us. They need and deserve whatever cover we can provide while we also fight for bigger and better change.
