You're projecting. We had a great turn out last Wednesday at the Ohio Statehouse

I was at a protest just last Wednesday at the Ohio Statehouse with my daughter. You didn't hear about that? There were protests across the country.

The ideology behind the Jewish supremacy of Zionism is the same as that underlying white supremacy in the US. It should be no surprise to see the ethnonationalists cover for each other.
This is a delicate moment. It’s a new day and yet so many are on edge. Our politics are inflamed, and social media only adds to the anxiety. It seems that @elonmusk made an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute, but again, we appreciate that people are on edge. In this moment, all sides should give one another a bit of grace, perhaps even the benefit of the doubt, and take a breath. This is a new beginning. Let’s hope for healing and work toward unity in the months and years ahead.

If you scroll up, you can see the post being responded to. You did write it, but it's been a couple hours now, so I understand it may not be top of mind any longer. For your convenience, I've included the post below with the relevant portion highlighted in yellow.

I said Jews are being silenced. I didn't say they were being convicted.

Washington Post article screenshot: Germany cracks down on public protests Perhaps nowhere is the issue of slogans and demonstrations more sensitive than in Germany, home to Europe’s largest Palestinian population, but also where the shadow of the Holocaust continues to inform so much thinking. Freedom of expression, opinion and assembly are protected in Germany’s constitution. But authorities in the country’s 16 federal states have the power to limit assembly. In Berlin, officials have rejected most pro-Palestinian protests this month. When banning last Sunday’s “Peace in the Middle East” demonstration, police said it posed an immediate danger of “seditious, antisemitic exclamations, glorification of violence, conveying a willingness to use violence and thereby intimidation, as well violent activities.” Hamburg, Germany’s second-largest city, has imposed a blanket, if temporary, ban. In some cities, attempts to flout the restrictions have led to clashes between riot police and protesters.

IKEA Announces Revolutionary Quantum Storage Solution Swedish furniture giant IKEA has partnered with CERN to develop a revolutionary storage system based on quantum mechanics. The system, dubbed FÖRSVINNA ('disappear' in Swedish), can instantly teleport small but crucial furniture parts into parallel universes. 'We were inspired by watching customers assemble our furniture,' said project lead Dr. Björn Schrödinger. 'Somehow, the essential pieces were already quantum tunneling themselves out of existence. We just commercialized the process.' The technology is particularly effective with: - The last screw needed to stabilize a wobbly table - That weird L-shaped Allen wrench you need for everything - The single crucial dowel that holds the entire bookshelf together - Step #27 of the instruction manual When asked about recovery of lost parts, Dr. Schrödinger stated the pieces exist in a superposition of being both under your couch and in the Andromeda galaxy. 'But mostly in Andromeda,' he added."

TIL mistletoe is a parasitic plant
mistletoe, any of many species of parasitic plants of the families Loranthaceae, Misodendraceae, and Santalaceae, especially those of the genera Viscum, Phoradendron, and Arceuthobium (all of which are members of the family Santalaceae). Most mistletoes parasitize a variety of hosts, and some species even parasitize other mistletoes, which in turn are parasitic on a host. They are pests of many ornamental, timber, and crop trees and are the cause of abnormal growths called “witches’ brooms” that deform the branches and decrease the reproductive ability of the host. Some species are used as Christmas decorations and are associated with a holiday tradition of kissing.

This take would be far more plausible in a world where blackface never existed. As it is, underrepresented groups have every reason to be wary when someone else steps into their shoes for the sake of entertainment. 1/2

It's not that nefarious. SC doesn't have an anti-terrorism law like NY. The Buffalo, NY Tops market shooter was charged with terrorism.
