Happy Pesach (Holiday Extra)
Caitlin Johstone and Roger Waters are Nazis. May G-d destroy them.
There are dozens of Pesach related topics – the seder, the eight days, the matzah symbolism, the four sons. In the Bible, Eliyahu is the crankiest prophet and yet he's our seder guest. Christians like to impose their cult leader on our holiday. The Ashkenazic vs. Sephardic customs are always fun.
This year it's different.
This year, my favorite part will be the part where we open the door and call upon G-d to pour his wrath out upon the nations. In every generation, they want to kill us. This year, we feel it more than most. This isn't history. This isn't Fiddler on the Roof nostalgia or even the Holocaust.
This year we know that they want to kill us.
This year, the fucking nazis took over Columbia University chanting “We are Hamas.” This year, our leftwing allies turned against us after October 7. Yesterday, Sahar Tartak was stabbed in the eye at Yale University for the crime of being Jewish. This year, we've all followed writers on Tumblr and Bluesky only to find them posting blood libel. People who happily ignored actual genocide in Sudan, China, Syria and Iran are now screaming genocide because Israel is at war. Every time Israel goes to war, these assholes scream genocide.
Blood libel has changed. In the past, our enemies would justify murdering us by accusing us of murdering Christian babies and putting their blood in our matzah. Now, our enemies claim that we murder Palestinian babies and harvest their organs.
Pour out your wrath, Hashem. Pour out your wrath on these motherfuckers.
Today, a friend posted a poem about the hostages still being held by Hamas. A stranger (Justin Leader) jumped in his comments to ask if he was also concerned about the “thousands of dead Gaza children.” The fact that anyone could mourn dead Jews angered Justin. I imagine he goes to Holocaust events to scream about the thousands of dead German children in Dresden. Obviously, Justin believes in the Hamas propaganda. Justin believes that only women and children die in Gaza. If you take Hamas seriously, there are no men in Gaza. The men are dodging bullets and bombs like superheroes. By the end of that thread, Justin Leader called my friend a “Zionist Collaborator” which was the worst insult he could muster. On Justin Leader's Facebook page are videos by “good Jews” who spout his antisemitic talking points.
We've seen their propaganda. They deny that anyone was raped on October 7. They claim that all the hostages were treated decently. They ignore the actual hostages talking about their captivity. They claim to love Jews, but hate most of us. They repeat 'anti-Zionism isn't antisemitism” as if they can order us not to see their obvious glee after October 7.
Years ago, a friend donated to my gofundme after the Tree of Life Synagogue shooting. She was so upset about the murder of Jews that she gave me money. She even told me that she was available if I needed to talk. Fifteen months later, America killed General Soleimani. She praised Iran as an enlightened anti-imperialist nation. Through Hezbollah and Islamic Jihad, Iran murdered many more Jews than one Pennsylvania shithead. She didn't care. She only cared about her one Jewish friend when a rightwing terrorist murdered Jews. Terrorists who could spout the decolonization doggerel were cool.
When Substack writers were freaking out over Nazis on the platform, they made a big show of demanding the Substack get rid of rednecks with 15 followers. They were cool with Caitlin Johnstone, even though Caitlin Johnstone spouts blood libel daily and celebrates October 7.
I came from Minnesota. In the 1920, Minneapolis was the most antisemitic city in America. Now, it's still antisemitic but they cloak their antisemitism in anti-Zionism. Jews will tell antisemitic jokes to put their friends at ease. I grew up in this culture. In middle school, I praised Hitler as a genius. In high school, I obsessively hated Israel. In college, I theorized that the Holocaust was engineered by Kabalists to create Israel. That wasn't very far from my childhood belief that Israel was a consolation prize for the Holocaust. Sorry, we killed every Jew we could find. Here's a country. The University of Minnesota bookstore had a book by an Arab “scholar” claiming that the Zionists engineered the Holocaust. This wasn't a Nazi or a Communist bookstore. The author wasn't David Icke. This was a supposedly scholarly book spouting this shit.
Of course, Minneapolis elected Ilhan Omar to Congress.
Pour out your wrath, G-d.
Shortly after October 7, Susan Sarandon gave a speech saying that she wanted Jews to be afraid again. She's currently supporting the Columbia University Nazis. Roger Waters denied that October 7 happened and railed against Bono for observing a moment of silence for Hamas' victims. Eric Clapton, racist shitbird, is receiving praise from the leftists who are cool with his racism and conspiracy babbling as long as he talks shit about Israel.
I don't love all Jews. I don't even like all Jews. Jews spouting bullshit talking points about ethnostates can fuck off. Please don't make me read Ben Shapiro. I never found Jackie Mason funny. Tony Kushner wrote an overrated play about Roy Cohn and a bunch of whiners and has used his fame to spout antisemitism ever since. Netanyahu is a disaster. Yet, we're family. You don't always like your family, but you have to protect them. Columbia University Nazis demand we stop fighting Hamas. Yale students want Hamas to murder even more of us. We have to care for each other, because holy fuck, the goyim aren't going to help us.
G-d pour out your wrath. Hashem, please kill all the Nazis – Susan Sarandon, Ayatollah Khameni, Hamas, Ivy League Nazis and every fucker that responded to October 7 with glee. G-d, please give them cancer. Give them fatal heart attacks. Drop them off their yachts. Let us see Roger Waters die screaming from hermorrhoids. Roger Waters is a hemorrhoid. He should die of them.
Happy Pesach everyone who is observing.
May our enemies die screaming.
Next year in Jerusalem.
If you like me, consider helping me with my rent.
AIPAC is trying to get rid of some of the worst anti-Israel politicians (Bowman, Bush, etc). Help them out.
That’s how I feel. We’re family. And if every other Jew is having to walk back friendships due to previously unknown antisemitism and ignorance like I am, we need each other more than ever.
I saw Ilhan’s Omar’s daughter on MSNBC. She smirked as she described her encampment as supportive of Jews, pointing out that Jewish students were there too and they’d all celebrated Shabbat together. She did not mention the hostages. They never do.
Caitlin Johnstone is scum. Bitch needs a new hobby other than libeling Jews and Israel. I suggest focusing on politics in her own country. Or maybe Putin could let her move to his Black Sea palace and she could become a lifestyle influencer.
I keep her unblocked so I can block all of her commenters every time she posts and make sure no one I follow is joining her Jew hate fest.
Sometimes the evil is just too much and you have to cry out. The Psalm 137 speaks of this. G_d must be crying, now too.
