So, there’s this trend that happens in liberal/activist spaces, where the second gentiles find out you’re Jewish, they no longer trust you unless you immediately, completely denounce every aspect of Israel down to its very existence. 

Example: at UCLA, a Jewish woman named Rachel Beyda applied for the student council. They interrogated her about whether she would be able to be “objective” because she was Jewish. They literally asked her, “Given that you are a Jewish student and very active in the Jewish community, how do you see yourself being able to maintain an unbiased view?”

I have experienced this interrogation and distrust personally, in activist spaces at UCSC. At one point I even made a Facebook post about it because I was curious if it was just me and discovered that every other Jewish person I know at UCSC had also experienced something similar. Leftists do not welcome or trust Jews who have any qualms about disavowing Israel. 

To be clear: I’m NOT talking about acknowledging that the Israeli government is committing human rights violations against Palestinians. That should be obvious, and isn’t inherently antisemitic. What IS antisemitic is this trend that has been going on for years in liberal activist spaces, where the second a Jewish person is involved in literally anything, ie Existing While Jewish, gentiles HAVE to bring up Israel, and quiz us on it until they’re satisfied that we have completely denounced it, including its right to exist. And if we don’t denounce every aspect of it to their satisfaction, then obviously we must support the genocide of Palestinians and are cast out of activist spaces. 

That’s what’s going on with Gal Godot. The plot of Wonder Woman had NOTHING to do with Israel or Palestine but because she is Israeli, because she served in the Israeli Army (which by the way, is mandatory, and also she served as a goddamn fitness instructor) gentiles are pouring out of the woodwork to deem her “problematic.” And I’m fucking pissed. 

Gentiles are encouraged to reblog this, because I am TIRED of seeing this shit in supposedly liberal spaces. We Jews can’t be the only ones calling this out. That’s a catch-22, because our opinions of Israel and antisemitism are ‘’’untrustworthy’’’. 🙂

I just want to add on to this that, if anyone is saying Gal Gadot advocates killing babies (and yes, I have seen that on Tumblr reblogs), that is explicitly blood libel (yes, even if it comes from someone on the left), and I would really like to see goyim calling that out.

I am also REALLY REALLY TIRED of watching people declare Gal Gadot simultaneously white and a WOC. She’s neither. THAT’S WHAT BEING ASHKENAZI JEWISH IS. We don’t GET to be either/or. But ffs stop trying to smack POC with the ‘but but representation’ stick OR telling Jewish people that she’s just another white woman.

*facehands* FOR THE LOVE OF LITTLE GREEN APPLES PEOPLE PULL YOUR HEADS OUT OF YOUR ASSES PLEASE.

If you’re using the terrorist attacks in London to try and push your political ideas or islamophobia, fuck right off.

No, we do not need guns in the UK. The availability of guns wouldn’t have helped the situation, but made it 100 times worse. Those terrorists attacked people with knives. Imagine the absolute fucking carnage if they’d been able to shoot.

No, the policy of ‘keep calm and carry on’ does not demonstrate our weakness. It’s the ultimate act of defiance against terrorism, which by it’s very definition attempts to disrupt our lives and make us too afraid to continue. I agree that action must be taken, but our refusal to submit to fear is one of the things I am proudest of about our country, and in all honesty, what else is there to do? Action is being taken against terrorism – MI5 stop dozens of terrorist plots each year. But if we can’t eradicate the cause of this hatred and violence, terrorism will never end. We can’t catch every terrorist. Someone will always slip through the cracks.

No, Muslims are not the problem. Muslims are not terrorists. Terrorists are extremists, whose actions have nothing to do with the faith that they falsely swear allegiance to, for Islam is a religion of peace, and Islamic extremism is nothing but a perversion of that. Having seen Trump’s tweet about his ‘Muslim ban’, I have never been more furious. That ban is not an anti terrorism measure, but a policy of racism and islamophobia, and I speak for the majority of Britain when I say that we want nothing to do with it.

Now is not the time to argue, to profess ignorant political ideas or to perpetuate racism. People have died. Have some fucking sympathy. Let us grieve.

Answer: Because architect Hannibal Lecter was out to get those space nazi mother fuckers and was sabotaging them from the start.

That was perfect.

It’s not just the plot hole of the flaw, “reactors need vents” would have answered that, but it explains why the first Death Star took like 20 years to build even though we saw it was half built at the end of ROTS then but the second Death Star took like 2 years.

It was because Hideo Kojimas Best Friend was fucking ruining their shit the first time, ordering the wrong screws, tripping over cables, spilling coffee on computers, accidentally hitting key engineers on he head with a 2-by-4 anything to delay the space nazis planet fucker.

Galen was the most brilliantly half-assed employee ever.

Kids, let’s consider something else.

In Return of the Jedi, the Super Star Destroyer is taken out by destroying the main bridge. Now, I get it. The bridge is the main control center. But this ship is 19 kilometers long. That’s the length of just over 19 regular Imperial-I or Imperial-II class Star Destroyers. In a ship that large, why the fuck isn’t there a back-up a bridge, a fail-safe, an autopilot or some shit that can account for and withstand the unlikely event that the main bridge is taken out by an enemy battlecruiser’s turbolaser batteries (or in this case, one luckyass suicidal pilot)?

It’s almost like this ship was designed by some dumbass named Galen Erso.
