Just got an anonymous tag on Threads about being a Zionist because my avatar is the Star of David.

I just got on threads and was tagged in one of the most anti-Jewish things I have seen since I had people in high school tell me Hitler was right.
Apparently, I need to die because "all zionists time is up," "the world see you for the cancer you are," and "when we exterminate all of you, the world will be a better place."

We're back to this? Take out Israel or zionist, put in Jew, and you've got what people have done for centuries.

I expect the Protocols to come back into fashion, as I do blood libels. Remember, Jews already control everything financially, run a shadow government that controls everyone (we're all taking orders from either George Soros or the Rothschilds), and want to destroy Christmas, Jesus, motherhood, apple pie, the American flag, and and the Statue of Liberty.

Tom Lehrer said it best:

"Oh, the Protestants hate the Catholics
And the Catholics hate the Protestants
And the Hindus hate the Moslems
And everybody hates the Jews"


We have no friends worldwide. None.

And to top it all off, it was littered with misspellings, grammatical errors, syntax errors, usage errors, and jumped tenses a lot from past to present, usually in the same sentence.

I know. But whenever it gets overwhelming, I think about those here on DU, the non-Jews, who have stood by us and have taken abuse on our behalf. I believe there are still people who would hide us in their attics.

I enjoyed it for a little while, but almost overnight it got bad. Bluesky is better, but I’m worried it will go the same way.

I never joined anything else besides twitter and I don’t really see it on there because I just go to the tweets posted from here to Retweet.

I feel warmth when I see that star. I am a former Catholic. I told my devout Catholic friend Jenny, who was terminally ill, about my Jewish cookbooks and how reading them still made me feel closer to Mother Mary. My friend was enthused by that idea, so I gave her my favorite Jewish cookbook, one with beautiful illustrations and explanations of some holiday dishes. I think it brought her some bit of comfort. I lost my friend Jenny a year ago. Please know that many people find beauty, comfort, inspiration, and wisdom in Judaism. Please take care. Please spend more time with good people and real people, less time with bots and butt-heads.

Okay but some would say conflating "Jewish" with "Israel" and "Zionist" is antisemitic, so.

Where would we be without those who are so "concerned" about us.
