I don’t interpret her as saying “yes this is a totally reasonable thing to do, yes go target all the Jews now” (esp given she is Jewish?)

I think it’s reasonable to understand this is the natural product of what Israel is doing, particularly for people who have never met another Jewish person in their life. And it’s also reasonable to then take that understanding and put it into context when Zionists reshare things like…. A Palestinian saying “I hate the Jews” or something else designed to inflame

At this point, even anti-Zionist Jewish people can’t help but wonder if the openly Jewish person they see on the subway supports Israel depravity or is still someone they can feel connected to. I’m thinking of the girl from New York who was torn and emotional, crying about her conflicted feelings.

I don’t remember her name, but after she posted the video, there was a huge hate campaign against her amongst pro-Israelis.

Absolutely. I think we are all kinda going through this right now if not grappling with our own complicated feelings
