Over 150,000 citizens have left the country in the past two years alone — many of them with a one-way ticket and no plans of returning.

    Dear Jews, ever heard the saying that regular Muslims need to speak out against extremists? C’mon Jews, speak up! Don’t abandon ship now. You see how difficult it is to stand up to this bullshit? You see how easy it is to fall for a Reichstag fire event? Fucking speak up! They’re not gonna listens to other people. They likely won’t listen to you if you’re Jewish either. But you have the best chance at not getting bulldozed.

      C’mon Jews, speak up!

      Have you been around the last couple of years? From Naomi Klein and Mahsa Gessen to Omer Bartov and Gabor Maté, Jewish intellectuals have been major voices against the genocide. And organizations like JVP and IJV in different countries, have been doing immense legwork and organizing. Not to mention the Refuseniks in Israel, and organizations like Standing Together.

      If you haven’t heard Jews speaking up, you haven’t been paying attention.

        I’ve heard from some of them, including Max Blumenthal, Aaron Mate, and Abbey Martin, though I don’t listen to any of them regularly. Have any of them mentioned the Hannibal Directive, shown sympathy for Muslims with how difficult it is to stand up to this bullshit? Have any of them shown sympathy for Germans with how easy it is to fall for a Reichstag fire event? Again, I’m not doing a gatcha here, I’m asking because I seriously don’t know as I’m not a regular listener of any of them.
