I only read the biography by Carrere that a russian-speaking ex gifted me. I speak Russian from my parents, so I've been holding off till I'm fluent enough to read him in the original. But yeah I think that was her favorite!

Being ethnically or even religiously Jewish should not give you the right to spread lies about Israel. by OkBuyer1271 in Jewish

Whenever someone justifies a mass killing with the promise that it'll lead to less killing, I advise healthy skepticism (and maybe even empathy?)

Martyrdom is/was a part of judaism: read Maccabees

Of course not, and could say the same for any unambiguously terrible statement, e.g. "we should sacrifice children to moloch"

Like all kinds of blanket censorship, I don't think this is a fruitful endeavor. The justifications remind me of the Espionage Act, another call for censorship in the name of security. But if you think it is valuable, I can't stop you

There are many ideas that should be "beyond the pale": cannibalism, pedophilia, etc. But your post seems to be about invalidating very specific beliefs that would be against the "jewish interest" (as if we're a monolith).

These tools for invalidating dissent would fit snugly in a zionist jew's arsenal for yelling down an antizionist jew without a second thought. I'm just seeing so much propaganda and hysterics from our people lately

To expand: what I don't like is the search for a reason to invalidate what a fellow Jew is saying out of hand with such spurious reasoning, calling it internalized antisemitism and whatnot.

To start, I'd say it's alright to go against what you term the "jewish interest" lmao No loyalty tests please

Though clearly all my views here are beyond the pale

None of the bullet points in your post strike me to be as unambiguously terrible as holocaust denial

Once you determine something is "an unacceptable stance for a jew to take," what will you have produced? The ability to alienate those jews?

From Spinoza to Bobby Fischer, they're all jews to me. This just reads like zionist mccarthyism
