also how is it that so many people write volumes upon volumes about Jews without knowing anything about Judaism?

@kittybecca I have to wonder how much of the loudest foot stoping and tooth-gnashing re: Ilhan Omar’s (admittedly slightly problematic) comments are actually evangelical fundies who want to ship us all to Israel just so they can have a cookout to watch while Jesus zaps us with his laser eyes, or whatever.

TP article saying the supreme court's decision not to allow a Muslim man to have an imam at his execution is "a failure of empathy"

let's call it what it is: theocracy, dressed up in bad-faith legalese. that's what it is. every single conservative member of that court was appointed to serve the interests of christian theocracy. this is officially the society we now live under.

the idea that "Zionist" means "someone who supports Jewish self-determination" is the most Orwellian, ahistoric garbage ever spewed forth by the Zionist lobby

the way people are now looking back at George W. Bush with nostalgia, based on his words (obviously not his actions), is extremely troubling

and i have a feeling the same will happen with trump, assuming there isn't a radical change. but then again it kind of feels like this system is on its death throes anyway, and one way or another, there is going to be a radical change. the question is whether it will be a better society or the society trump's backers want it to be.
