Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

That catchy jingle you heard from your TV just before halftime at the Super Bowl was an ad supporting Robert Kennedy Jr. running for president, and was essentially a reboot of an ad supporting his uncle John F. Kennedy in his 1960 presidential campaign.

It's almost Valentine's Day so it's my yearly reminder that lilies are DEADLY to cats. Every single part of the lily. Even the tiniest sniff of pollen will send a cat into kidney failure within an hour. Lilies are a death sentence. If you have cats DO NOT have lilies in your home!

The world's Jews are not responsible for the actions of the Israeli government. Conflating the two is antisemitic.
Not all Israeli Jews are responsible for the actions of the Israeli govt either. Many voted otherwise. Think if you'd wanted to be punished for everything Trump did when you voted Dem
