lmao I'm so fucking glad he outed himself to a much wider population as a lil' ol' not-smart weirdo with... y'know... everything he's done recently

Still not ideal omori-furious, but at least fewer people at work will repeat this to me as a serious claim, and those who do with less enthusiasm on average

US leaves Hurricane Helene survivors behind while funding Israel’s genocidal war. As the death toll from the storm climbs to 204, Congress has made no efforts to secure more disaster relief funding. in c/[email protected]

I hadn't even considered how jarring the political switch to antisemitism will be. Dems through a lens of nauseatingly misused left-adjacent points, and Reps with more overt racism and exciting language. If the NYT runs an article called "Were the Alt-Right right about Israel?" I'm putting my fucking head right in the lathe next

That's a fair point

I had meant purely that I didn't recall a Hezbollah retaliation as wide scale as this before now. Clearly they're being intentionally provoked, and are not in any sense the aggressors here.

What do you think is a better way to say it? I will edit

Edit: I just made it super academic and it fixed it as far as I can see.

I am convinced that Israel has realized that it can't survive a drawn out conflict, and will endlessly provoke literally all of it's neighbors until things have escalated to the point that the US feels the need to properly enter the fray.

Edited: Bad wording on my part in the first one. I'm just tired - not awful

I liked the below, if you don't mind a bit of fantasy isakei being in the mix.

you are antisemitic if you don't think the National Guard should be called up to murder peaceful student protestors in c/[email protected]

The word "antisemitism" has lost all meaning.

They're pretty explicit in talking about the word, not the concept. Nobody here is saying antisemitism, the concept, doesn't exist or isn't important, but that the signifier less and less frequently refers to the actual concept of antisemitism.

I think you might just be arguing at cross purposes. Original post was borderline a purely linguistic observation, but you're talking about the underlying phenomenon.

I know I've seen sentiment from some very active trans posters that this issue has made them feel that this is not a trans-inclusive space. I just want to say that, as a cis not very active poster, I genuinely love each and every one of you trans comrades, and I hope that the fucking weird struggle session that's happened here doesn't give you the perspective that there aren't cis comrades who are supportive of you.
