I didn't imply that you said that, and I haven't said a single thing about voting. I was just letting you know another piece of info about Jews that many people don't know, and which I thought you might find interesting.

Thank you for asking genuinely and listening.

Like I said, I'm not a great person to ask. There's lots of info already written about this - @theradr.bsky.social for one, @jewitches.bsky.social also has some amazing resources. (Don't @ them, go read what they've already shared).

FWIW, not all Jews believe in the "chosen people" thing, either.

Moreover: most Zionists are not Jewish. It's estimated that in the United States alone, there are 20-50 million Christian Zionists (who have their own, often twisted, reasons for believing in Zionism). Meanwhile, there are only about 15-16 million Jews *in the world*.

I am a poor person to ask this, but I'll try.

Judaism is a religious, cultural, and ethnic community - a peoplehood.

Zionism is a nationalist movement that says Jews should have their own homeland, and that homeland should be Israel. Not all Jews want that or agree with this movement.

The "everything they do is a distraction!" people exhaust me. This administration is not concerned with "distracting" us from what they're really doing — they don't need to be. They are doing what they want to do, overtly, and bragging about it.

Conflating Judaism with Zionism is, in fact, Zionist propaganda...which you have apparently bought into. It *serves* Zionism for you to be suckered into believing that all Israelis are Jews and all Jews are Zionists. You're not defending Palestinians with this comment, you're just parroting Zionism.

I read post after post of Trump and his admin taking actions that will starve children, displace the unhoused, and undo marriage equality, then I come to a post by you about... computer chips. You're not just callous or out of touch, you're not even living in the same reality as the rest of us.

i think it is hard for some people to really their heads around the reality that kennedy is staunchly anti-vaccine and thinks that people should suffer through disease and that those who die deserved it and that those who survive are a better order of human being

imo, anything written that will be published in some format or another should be read aloud as part of editing. Our eyes tend to "fill in" gaps or mistakes so we don't notice them, but our ears will catch it. That's not a flaw, it's a very normal and smart step of the editing process.

These are the type of guys who got slightly spooked on a random March day two years ago and after a few tweets among them, they caused a bank collapse. It's VERY bad for us that they all think the same things and don't listen to anyone who thinks differently.
