Mario Devouring His Son (2025)

this edit is a combination of Saturn Devouring His Son (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturn_Devouring_His_Son) and the photo of Anthony Cuomo upset, looking at his phone after being defeated by Zohran Mamdani in the 2025 New York City Gubernatorial race.

some choice quotes from Herzls contemporaries, from the very enlightening intro to Eli Valley's "Diaspora Boy"

Photo of text from Eli Valley's Diaspora boy. An image of a flexing man is shown. Text reads: rationale to what they considered to be a revolution. They were responding to an avalanche of images pro- duced over the course of two millennia: depictions of Jews made by people who had never seen Jews and/ or despised them in both a personal and an abstract sense. Over the course of generations, many Jews internalized these biases and began to see themselves through a contorted lens. Enter twentieth century eugenics and the popularization of "racial science," as well as the urge to prove Jewish worthiness as a nation like all others-i.e., a nation that merited a state-and Zionists embarked on reversing what they diagnosed as endemic Jewish "degeneration" brought about by the dysfunction of Diaspora. That was the starting point for state-building: eliminating what they considered the emasculated and withered image of the Jew and returning to a prelapsarian idyll in which all Jews were either Moses or Maccabees. They'd accomplish this by creating a mold for hyper-masculinized, agrarian, rev- olutionary, mustachioed Jews, at least in the case of an image from a Zionist gymnastics journal from 1904.

text continues: What isn't said enough is that maybe the architects of Jewish rebirth internalized more than they realized, perpetuating anti-Semitic perceptions and presumptions in a process they themselves might term "self-hatred." Just listen to A. D. Gordon, one of the founding fathers of the Labor Zionist moviement: "We are a parasitic people. We have no roots in the soil; there is no ground beneath our feet. And we are parasites not only in an economic sense but in spirit, in thought, in poetry, in literature, and in our virtues, our ideals, our higher human aspirations." The Zionist solution was national autonomy, but first the individual had to be remade. My favorite example is the Teuton, an exercise machine advertised in 1908 in a Zionist weekly created by Theodor Herzl, the founder of Zionism. Sure, hindsight is 20/20, and in 1908 the full dimensions of Europe's racial/nationalist agenda were not entirely clear, but still: they were advertising Jewish liberation via a Teuton. This is the heart of the Zionist enterprise: Rebirth as Maccabees modeled on Teutons able to farm the land-in this case, via and instrument that appears to be no more than a couple resistance levers attached to a beam.

text continues: It's difficult to overstate the vitriol. "The emancipated Jew is insecure in his relations with his fellow man, timid with strangers, and suspicious even of the secret feelings of his friends... He has become a cripple within, and a counterfeit person without, so that like everything unreal, he is ridiculous and hateful to all men of high standards." That isn't from Mein Kampf. It's from Max Nordau, a sem- inal founder of the Zionist movement and proponent of "Muscular Judaism," who exhorted Jews to "once more become deep-chested, tightly muscled, courageous men." Addressing a Zionist gymnastics club in 1903, Nordau even boasted that "morally the new muscle-Jews surpass the ancient Jewish circus-fighters" because unlike their predecessors, Zionist gymnasts did not try to hide their circumcisions. That same year, sitting with Theodor Herzl at the Sixth Zionist Congress, Nordau watched a team of Jews, possibly after practicing with Teutons, perform in a gymnastics show. A subsequent report boasted that the gymnasts lacked "pale faces, hunched-over backs, and broken hearts and chests; instead they were healthy, ruddy men with strong muscles, young men whom, up until now, we were used to encountering only among the non-Jewish people of the world."

woah woah woah, did y'all know he was woke?

a chyron reads "FORMER ANTIFA MEMBER SPEAKS OUT". the interviewee is robin hood from Disney's 1973 animated film, who is depicted as a joyous, mischievous red fox, wearing a green tunic, and a green hat with a red feather poking out of the top. he wields a bow and arrows.

to be clear, this is Israel's fault, fomenting antisemitism with its genocide even among people claiming the left. the left image is of Eric Adams at a Sephardic Rosh Hashanah Event in Brooklyn the other day. to the right is a post from a WOULD-BE communist who has extended the persons nose (1/2 🧵)

2025 is ratchet theory on meth-amphetamines, in my opinion

image shows a ratchet (explained here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratchet_(device) ) . text above shows "The Ratchet Effect. How you are being duped by the fake two-party system.". Text to the left of a blue pawl interrupting the rightward motion of the ratchet reads: "Democrats block movement back to the left". Text to the right of the red ratchet reads: "Republicans turn everything to the right".

here's what i said, in case anyone is curious

screencap of my twitter reply. text reads: "you have an astrophysical black hole for a mind. you take in everything and process nothing, an energy vampire. log off, touch grass, meet your neighbor, stop thinking pulling the lever once every 4 years is more important than simply giving money to a trans person in need. muting you now."
