What the absolute fuck
"After making what was almost certainly a double "Sieg Heil" salute at President Donald Trump's inaugural festivities, #Musk doubled down today by making a slew of disgusting puns using the names of #Nazi leaders like Herman Göring and Joseph Goebbels.
"Don’t say Hess to Nazi accusations!" the buffoonish billionaire posted on the platform he owns, a reference to Adolf #Hitler's second-hand man Rudolf Hess. "I bet you did nazi that coming."

"#France saw nearly 1,600 #antisemitic acts in 2024, a slight dip from the year before but still at levels unseen in recent years as the #Israel-#Hamas war raged in #Gaza, the country’s main #Jewish organization says.
The figure of 1,570 incidents marked a six percent fall from the 1,676 recorded in 2023 but well above the numbers in the past decade or so.
By comparison, 436 antisemitic acts were recorded in 2022 and since 2012 they have fluctuated between 311 and 851 per year."

Thinking of my friend Will who died trying to draw attention to the damage ICE and US immigration policy was doing to the people in our commmunities who didn't have the right pieces of paper to exist.
And it's probably going to get worse.

This is just shocking.
"#Australia has been grappling with a spate of #antisemitic attacks on #synagogues, buildings and cars since the beginning of the #Israel-#Gaza war in late 2023.
Authorities have designated some of the incidents as terrorism and vowed to crack down on the perpetrators amid concerns of further escalation, with half a dozen incidents occurring across #Sydney in the past month alone.
Police in the state of New South Wales, that has Sydney as its capital, have arrested forty people for antisemitic offences and eight relation to #arson."

Pretty decent number of aussie fedi left discussions complaining that Israelis and Americans are asking for something to be done about anti-Jewish violence in their country.
Lots of Jewish victimhood shit, some the violence is because of Israeli Jews shit, yadda yadda.
Zero - hey lets collect our people and get them to stop setting fire to Jewish shit.
These are our allies against fascism. Cool cool cool.

Not feeling great.
"A #Maroubra childcare centre has been #vandalised and #firebombed in what is the latest vile #antisemitic incident to hit #Sydney.
Police said that just before 1am on Tuesday, January 21, emergency services were called to a childcare centre on Storey Street, Maroubra. Fire and Rescue NSW attended and found the ground floor well alight. The blaze was extinguished; however, the building sustained extensive damage. Offensive #graffiti was also located spray painted on an external wall. The AJN understands it read “F**k the Jews”.

I'm not sure what bothers me most. The ADL and big media outlets excusing away what looks pretty clearly like a fascist salute or the fact that the left is complaining more about the ADL than the fascists themselvespr the media narrative.
Obviously, the ADL has influence on the issue, so that's objectively bad, but the left's turn away from all but their litmus test Jews makes me feel more personally adrift.
The whole thing is like digging into a wound.
Reminder: hating nazis is not the same as loving Jews.

"[O]ur ancestors understood time differently. From the weekly rhythm of #Shabbat to the annual cycle of holidays, #Jewish tradition teaches us to create sacred containers of time. But how could I, a 21st-century professional juggling multiple responsibilities, implement this ancient wisdom?
The answer came from an unexpected source – my grandmother's old mechanical kitchen timer, discovered while cleaning out my kitchen drawer. Its simple mechanism reminded me of a teaching I'd once heard about the #BaalShemTov, the founder of #Hasidism, who taught that every object contains divine sparks waiting to be elevated through #mindful use."

[#]Peltier was denied parole as recently as July and wasn't eligible for parole again until 2026. He was serving life in prison for the deaths of the agents during a standoff on the #PineRidge #Indian #Reservation in South Dakota. He will transition to home confinement, #Biden said in a statement."

Funny, I reread this post, and by safe, I meant from the degradation and collapse of good art. But it reads like personal physical safety.
This is why I don't post about politics. IDC enough to be precise, so my humor doesn't land well.

I don't really post about US politics much but 4 years of this shit is not great.
I'm hoping if one of you watch this video it's like some combo of the ring and it follows and I'll be safe.
"Prepare your eyes and ears, because #RoseanneBarr, a.k.a "this Granny," is "going bad" in a new pro-Donald #Trump #rap #music #video. (Hey, at least she warned us.)
In the bizarre video with Canadian #rapper Tom MacDonald, titled "Daddy's Home," Barr dons blond box braids, gold chains, and sunglasses to gloat about the election with MacDonald. (The song features lyrics such as "We won, you mad, it's done, too bad, boo hoo, so sad … you cry, we laugh" alongside #MAGA iconography.)"

"Young folks are hungry for #food with a story, and this surge in demand for culturally rich #foods speaks to a broader cultural shift. While prior generations of immigrants and marginalized people in America were culturally encouraged to assimilate and keep their traditions and flavors in their home kitchens, Millennials and Gen Z Americans have a more positive view of difference and cultural pride.
“It’s very exciting to see young people having pride in #Jewish food and sharing their own family traditions and cultural foods that they love to eat with a bigger audience,” says Amanda Dell, program director of the Jewish Food Society. “People are telling their story on their own terms, beyond the Jewish community with people who may have not heard of these foods before.”
These convenience foods allow busy people to enjoy traditionally labor-intensive #recipes in their daily lives — easily, every day if they want, and with whomever they want.

Australia is kooky AF
"A prominent #Jewish leader says he has taken security advice from counter-terrorism and police officers after his former Sydney eastern suburbs home was the subject of an #antiSemitic attack.
Alex Ryvchin, the co-chief executive of the Executive Council of #Australian #Jewry, lived at the house on Military Road, Dover Heights for many years.
The property he described as a "beloved family home" where they "hunkered down during the COVID pandemic" was found splashed with red paint in the early hours of Friday morning.
Four cars were damaged, one was graffitied with the words "f*** #Israel", and another vehicle with "f*** #Jews" that was also set alight."
