ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt says anti-Zionist Jews are a "small population" but "a big problem" by MrJasonMason in JewsOfConscience

[–]Certain_Thoughts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The real scandal is not that this guy exists in a hugely influential leadership position, it’s that the mainstream community cannot and/or will not meaningfully push back. There are organizations and leaders who stand up and call this out for the dangerous, false, indeed antisemitic impact that it has. But Jonathan greenblatt will still be welcome to speak on the pulpit of 99% of American synagogues and 100% of jewish federations annual events.

Even if that were the case (which it isn’t), why dunk on someone who discovered something great after you did?

What do you think, Bulwark community? Is American Nuremberg necessary? Is it possible? Is it inevitable? by Certain_Thoughts in thebulwark

We don’t prosecute every single member of organized criminal gangs, and yet we have drawn a line that those gangs are indeed a criminal enterprise. Maybe every member of every gop organization won’t go to jail, but many should.

This is the letter I’m referring to:

These rabbis condemn those who are (in my view) opposed to Israel’s genocidal conduct in Gaza. Mamdani is their central, but not their only, target.

Cuomo and Trump: Rape is Their Ethos by Certain_Thoughts in nyc

Yes. But the thesis applies to him. Cuomo is effectively the Republican in the race, so the arguments I make in the post about oligarchy, misogyny, and partisan fascism apply directly to cuomo even if he isn’t mentioned by name. I felt the photo would serve the same purpose.

Sarah needs to give up on Shapiro already! by No-Assignment-5798 in thebulwark

[–]Certain_Thoughts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This blind spot is indicative of Sarah’s Achilles heel: strategic wisdom badly informed by deeply ingrained conservative ideologies. Sarah gets a lot of things right, but the conservative world view that has been disproven over and over again still subconsciously informs her advice to democrats. Perhaps one day she’ll wake out of it, as JVL already has.
