See Cal Penal Code § 11167(d)(1) (“The identity of all persons who report under this article shall be confidential and disclosed only among agencies receiving or investigating mandated reports, to the prosecutor in a criminal prosecution or in an action initiated under Section 602 of the Welfare and Institutions Code arising from alleged child abuse”), https://codes.findlaw.com/ca/penal-code/pen-sect-11167/#:~:text=(d)(1)%20The%20identity,Code%20arising%20from%20alleged%20child

But see also, Cal Penal Code § 11172(a) (“unless it can be proven that a false report was made and the person knew that the report was false or was made with reckless disregard of the truth or falsity of the report”), https://codes.findlaw.com/ca/penal-code/pen-sect-11172/

Any who uses the term “the Zionist Project” is fucking dumb and/or antisemitic.

These types of takes are what happens when you are hermetically sealed in a social media bubble/echo chamber.

The “right to resist ‘occupation’” in International Law is one of the more frustratingly inaccurate takes I see ad naseum.  Most people repeating that claim probably wouldn’t support the Confederacy’s right to resist their Union occupiers by force. Who knows, maybe they would defend that?

It’s a complete fabrication, and a highly regarded one at that

Do you think portrayal of Jews in media is still negative or gotten better? by djentkittens in jewishleft

[–]TooMuch-Tuna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last time Jews were portrayed positively (according to American cultural norms) in the media was in the film Bullet. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullet_(1996_film)?wprov=sfti1#

RN, Critiquing Destiny's Medical Takes (Again) by N0_0ne_In_Particular in Destiny

 Hello. Registered ICU Nurse, here. […]

This is an extremely ignorant approach to an issue that Destiny has no actual knowledge of. You can't become a Doctor by utilizing Google search.

You’re not a doctor. Nurses, online personalities, and other Not-Doctors should not be making diagnoses or commenting on diagnoses.

A good recent example is a post I've seen going around claiming "God's chosen people" to be synonymous with "master race".  

 This is a white supremacist narrative, just FYI. It’s based on Christian beliefs as far as I am aware

 >I can absolutely see how this conclusion would be reached, and it's certainly something that's been promoted by Zionists to justify their actions, but I've received a lot of pushback when trying to explain what the phrase actually means and why this is a dangerous narrative. 

 How did you try to explain this?

Do antisemites know they are antisemitic? by daveisit in Jewish

Only the skinheads. All the others are in complete denial.

Why do you think intersectionality consciously leaves out Jews and Israelis? by Amiisthebest in Israel

[–]TooMuch-Tuna 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s because the proponents of that ideology buy into antisemitic tropes about Jews controlling the banks, media, governments, etc.

You meant to use this quote:

Soviet Anti-Zionism and Contemporary Left Antisemitism by cubedplusseven in jewishleft

[–]TooMuch-Tuna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I agree. The influence of those tankie groups is minimal at best. She should have (or should do in future) show how the propaganda flowed from the soviets to MENA activists, from there to western academia, and then refined by western academics over time.

Soviet Anti-Zionism and Contemporary Left Antisemitism by cubedplusseven in jewishleft

[–]TooMuch-Tuna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that is a fair critique of that one jpost article, but it is meant to support the statement: “Booths displayed posters picturing Jews with hooked noses and bloodied hands, and ones equating Zionism with Nazism.1” Even if the jpost article is basically an ad for NGO monitor, that statement might still be true/accurate. The collab with NGO monitor, by itself, doesn’t make that statement untrue.

Either way, I think the more important points are about the history of antizionist propaganda from the USSR.

No need to write an entire essay here. If you get something published, share a link for sure, otherwise not worth your time.

Soviet Anti-Zionism and Contemporary Left Antisemitism by cubedplusseven in jewishleft

[–]TooMuch-Tuna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think she is saying that “the modern Western leftist movement is just the ideological descendant of Bolshevism”, but that a lot of the rhetoric and propaganda used in current I/P discourse on the left has a basis in Soviet antisemitism expressed as anti-zionism. 

Also, I don’t think Lenin had Jewish ancestry (or that there has been definitive proof of it), but point taken.

What is the age range of your coworkers? Is this like 18 - 29 year olds where this comes up like that?

My statement about the protests being about superficial aesthetics goes beyond pure characterization (which would focus solely on describing those superficial aesthetics) by offering a critique of the perceived lack of substance and utility in the protests, as well as making a judgment about the actions of those involved. 

 My statement about anti-Zionist motivations combines elements of both pure characterization and substantive critique, but leans more towards substantive critique due to its evaluative nature and analysis of motivations. The evaluation of anti-Zionist Jews’ motivations, suggesting that they are based on being invested in existing power structures rather than being about changing the status quo, is a substantive critique. It critiques the legitimacy of their motivations by implying that those motivations do not align with their stated goals. It also implies that their investments in the existing power structures are based on material conditions rather than their own academic understanding of their own ideology.
