@derpayatz Now that's a Lenin meme I can get behind...

"I like the idea of a faster and distraction-free web but I don’t like the idea of web being controlled and molded by one company. Especially not one that is the largest advertising company in the world.

This is the Googled-web Google wants to see you develop. The web “delivered by Google”. Your site being integrated with all the other cool Google products such as Analytics and AdSense."

The thing that worries me about all this Labour antisemitism stuff is that I can feel myself starting to discount actual Antisemitism, which is somewhat dangerous when there's legit dickheads out there.

...also, internet leftists, if you could please stop putting Lenin in all the cool meme ideas you have that would be delightful lol

I can only imagine the kind of future we'd have if all the young queers I know who want to start communes didn't have to slave away for decades to have a possibility of maybe getting the land they need and instead were able to start experimenting with models to make the communities work and practicing their skills growing food and making high quality artisan goods.

does the wiki page for 'reply guy' need more examples?

@derpayatz @bestrashnye In this sense it's also very related to Israeli Ashkenormativity, and to the classic, still-prevalent Israeli tendency to divide Jews into two categories: Ashkenazi and "Sephardi," the second category being every Jew who isn't Ashkenazi. A lot of guilty Ashkenazi Jews will parrot the line that Ashkenazi is synonymous with "white European Jew"; I'll so often see this in leftist Jewish articles.

@derpayatz @bestrashnye Ashkenazi white guilt in particular makes a lot of Ashkenazim lose sight of the fact that, for example, Sephardim in the United States and Canada are also largely assimilated into whiteness, that many of them have paler skin than many Ashkenazim, etc.. On a Ladino mailing list I remember people being positively baffled by an article equating Ashkenazi with white.

@derpayatz
The INN thing happened in the US and in conversations with core US organizers. White guilt among Jews is such a pile of trash honestly, I get so annoyed by it. I've got US Jews deferring to me on concentration camps as "more affected" just because of being from Kiev when I don't have any camp survivor family and they know that, and Jews lumping themselves in with guilt about the 13 Colonies 🙄
@kittybecca

@derpayatz such as one I saw that was released by a university press, I can't remember which one or the title at the top of my head, and that only focused on Ashkenazi leftism.

I also wasn't saying there was anything wrong with Yiddish revival at all, or with enjoying and reviving Ashkenazi culture.

@derpayatz It's fine. I will say I was never suggesting that everyone learn Judeo-Piedmontese, an extinct and barely-attested language, or even Ladino. Nor was my initial criticism even mainly directed at revivalism; it was directed more at a broader emphasis on Ashkenazi culture that I see in Jewish Currents, in leftist podcasts, etc.. Or in the Wikipedia article on the Jewish left, which was presumably written mostly by Jewish leftists, and Ashkenazi ones. Or on "histories of the Jewish left"
