Some truths:
1. US Anti-Muslim, Arab, and Palestinian hate is exploding
2. US Antisemitism is exploding
3. Fascists are using this moment to grow their power
4. The Rafah invasion is an emergency that needs to be called out urgently
5. All these things mater at once
6. Also the biosphere and surrounding environement is becoming uninhabitable in many places
7. Also Congo, Sudan, Ukraine, Syria, the nonstop shootings in the US that would be considered civil war if the same scale of violence took place anywhere else.

Stop driving cars. It's as much a national security issue as anything else could be. You all have to stop. Sorry that's the fix, cope and get on it. Or we all watch billions die around us and probably more than likely join them.
Have you seen the unhinged Dersh interview where he claims that Zionist Christians can also be victims of antisemitism?
One of the most mask-off statements in this entire era of bad faith & insincere weaponization
This is all correct, in both my personal and professional opinion. And it’s driving me *nuts* that it seems so hard for people in media and politics (not to mention civil society orgs) to say it! Every day I feel gaslit!
Yes, if you remove the data from the ADL that lumps in criticism of Israel and Zionism with antisemitism, the number has still grown significantly.
The FBI has also warned of an increase in hate crimes, and their criteria is much stricter.
Fascists thrive on hate, so whenever we, as a society, agree to hate anyone, fascists win.
Except fascists and fascism, of course. It's our duty to hate intolerance for everyone but fascists.
For whatever reason I hadn’t been seeing your posts much on here (maybe just because you haven’t been posting as much here?) but started to again in the last few days and it makes me happy
