⭕️ Pulitzer Prize winner Benjamin Moser:
“The more I studied Zionism, the more I spent time there, the more I realized that every inch of Israel is Palestine. It was always Palestine.
Jews were never not allowed to live there as equal citizens, as they are in Britain or any other Western country. But the establishment of this state really did mean this massive ethnic cleansing that was not just a one-off.”

Host: Why are you here this morning?
Trump rally attendee: In the '70s I was too young to get go to South America for the Jonestown massacre, so this is as close as I'll get. There's nothing like seeing a cult up close.
Host: Alright, maybe this is not a Trump supporter

Here's what Jewish philosopher Baruch Spinoza wrote in 1670 about Jewish hate for the Goyim.
Today, Jews praise him and use him as an example of the so-called "Jewish genius". In real time though, like any Jew who dared to tell the truth, he was excommunicated by Jewish society.
Jewish xenophobia started long before the Talmud: An account by Greek historian Diodorus Siculus, written around 30-50 BCE, describes events that took place a century earlier, when Antiochus VII Sidetes, who was then the ruler of the Hellenistic Empire (not the allegedly "evil" Antiochus from the Book of Maccabees) was besieging Jerusalem, then under Jewish Hasmonean rule.
According to Diodorus, Antiochus VII's advisors urged him to "root out the whole Nation of the Jews; For that they only of all People, hated to Converse with any of another Nation, and treated them all as Enemies". They also said that the Jews had "made strange Laws, and quite different from other People: Never will Eat or Drink with any of another Nation, or wish them any prosperity" and spoke of the Jews' "sacred books, whereby they were taught to hate all other Nations".
Despite the advice he allegedly received, Antiochus VII allowed a seven-day truce during the siege for the Jews to celebrate a religious festival, eventually reached some settlement with the Hasmonean Kingdom, and was supportive of Jews, to the point that they titled him "the Benefactor".

You see, the greatest French writer in history, Victor Hugo wrote an entire novel about how looting to feed yourself and your family is not a crime or personal failing, but a fundamental flaw of a corrupt system that gives you no other choice

I wrote a story about how basically every man I know in my station of life — millennial, in a long term relationship, in possession of a fake email job — does all the cooking in their relationship, which is something I have a lot of theories about.

Amanda Seyfried says "I'm not f*cking apologizing" for calling Charlie Kirk "hateful" after his death.
"I mean, for f*ck's sake, I commented on one thing. I said something that was based on actual reality and actual footage and actual quotes. What I said was pretty damn factual, and I'm free to have an opinion, of course. Thank God for Instagram. I was able to give some clarity, and it was about getting my voice back because I felt like it had been stolen and recontextualized—which is what people do, of course," Seyfried told Who What Wear.
Amid backlash in September for her Kirk comment, Seyfried explained: “I can get angry about misogyny and racist rhetoric and ALSO very much agree that Charlie Kirk’s murder was absolutely disturbing and deplorable in every way imaginable."

Our youngest was tested for celiac disease yesterday. The doctor asked if autoimmune diseases run in our family.
Me: “I have lupus & Hashimoto’s. My daughter & I have celiacs. Our twins have JIA.”
German doctor, after a brief pause: “Ah. Your immune systems are very ambitious.”
