If you want to know what it's like to be visibly Jewish on Mastodon. It's the harassment you will get whenever you publicly express joy and love for your own Jewishness.Because the bigots want you to be ashamed of it, and hate it like they hate it.#Fediblock emacs.ch

I'm not done with #fediblock for emacs.ch now that he's like we had an agreement.What happened is a Cryptpad was written where I spent ALL Sunday explaining why I thought our users were being harassed. Where louis demanded we agree that if one of his users harassed us from another instance he is not to blameThis concluded with a DM saying emacs.ch will defederate from us so their users don't "unintentionally harass" ours

When I say people don't love Jews they just hate Nazis, I think I'm being misunderstood by gentiles. They ask, "Why should it matter if I love Jews?"But it does matter. Since if you loved Jews, you would listen when they said something concerned them. If you loved Jews, you might engage with Jewish culture and thought. If you did that, you might learn many of the assumptions you made about us were wrong.You might discover some of your assumptions about your society and your history are wrong.Your world would be rendered permanently richer but also more complicated. More subtle.It would be harder to say things like, "I read the Bible so I understand Judaism". It would be harder to confidently say lots of things.When you hate Nazis, your understanding uses their hateful language. Jews are defined by the lies spread about us over thousands of years. You know they are lies, but it's also all you know.So love Jews. Who knows what could happen after that

Berlin has a Deja Vu Musuem, which contrary to expectations, I'm pretty sure I've never visited.

This is a bit thinking out loud, but why do some people think we need different strategies to change our movements vs society as a whole?Why should strategies to fight hate within a left-wing movement differ from the strategies to fight it more broadly?

@stux Oh lots of US politicians talk about the lack of mental health care. And then reiterate their commitment to fund none of it
