I'm not going to speak for other Jews, but for me personally: I find it pretty fucking galling for the Trump administration, which is staffed in large part by Nazi sympathizers, to use antisemitism as an excuse for their racism and xenophobia.
Ok I’m doing it: Thread of all the unquestionable antisemitism by trump admin and associates, because as a Jew, I refuse to be used to further their cynical assault on civil liberties. 1/x

If you or someone you know have been a victim of the sexualized deepfakes created by Grok and would like to discuss your civil legal options, DM me or reach out on Signal at riot.95. I can connect you with excellent free legal counsel.
Unless I'm missing something, and I'm pretty sure I'm not, Twitter's AI is cranking out CSAM deepfakes, Elon Musk is making jokes about it, and nobody is doing anything to stop it or hold anyone at Twitter accountable for its creation and distribution.
Is that right?

You are kidding yourself if you think OpenAI won't be charging for ChatGPT to generate CSAM for pay in a few months. They already charge money for a product that tells kids to self harm, they already have a product that generates "adult content", they already lobby against any AI regulation.

Lyme is one of many health problems caused & exacerbated by manmade climate change. A legitimate health secretary would acknowledge that.
We actually had a pretty good Lyme vaccine but antivaxxers lied & said it gave people knee pain (it didn’t but knee pain?) & got manufacturer to pull it in 2002.

You know what, shitbird? I have an idea. What about a VACCINE?
There are several in late stages of development.
Will you promote them so we can get “children back into the woods” as you say?

I guess we’re talking about MTG again because of a NYT puff piece that just decides not to mention her consistent and overt antisemitism.
20b/x MTG managed to up her hate game recently, opposing an antisemitism bill because it might stop her from blaming Jews for Jesus’s death. Accusations of deicide have fueled centuries of persecution, casting Jews as beyond salvation and therefore inhuman. www.jpost.com/american-pol...

I’m not Jewish myself, so I’m always hesitant to accuse other people of antisemitism. That said, the way that the right is using antisemitism as a weapon to justify their attacks on the institutions of our country while ignoring it on their own side is antisemitism. Jewish people shouldn’t be props.

He's also responsible for raising all the money that paid for bringing Hollingsworth v. Perry & even more importantly Bostic v. Schaefer, which created the circuit split that forced SCOTUS to take on Obergefell v. Hodges. The role he played in American marriage equality cannot be overstated.
The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing.
