But if you post the word GAZA, you’re shadowbanned, demonetized, or dropped from brand deals. Sometimes all three. Every creator sees it happening. No one in power will admit it."

Anti-American sentiment is rising dramatically around the world due to our government’s perceived complicity in violations of international humanitarian law.

"We were the ones who asked, from a distance, about others: How could ordinary people go on with their lives while something like this happened? How could they let it happen? What would I have done in their place?
In a grotesque twist of history, that question now circles back to us. ...
The Israeli state is committing genocide."

"And once you accept that, the question we have asked ourselves all our lives rematerializes with urgency: What would I have done, back then, on that other planet?
Except the answer is not rhetorical. It is now. It is us. And there is only one right answer:
We must do everything in our power to stop it."

"The question I wish to address – very partially and preliminarily in this essay – is: what is the meaning of Holocaust memory in a reality where Israel, and most of the West, especially the US and Germany – countries that have made Holocaust memory a central component of their identities and a moral imperative for the world – is committing genocide?"

"The 'fight against antisemitism' – as a central lesson supposedly learned from the Holocaust – now serves as a pretext for dismantling effective criticism of genocide, and as a tool for governments to suppress basic democratic institutions – first and foremost, universities – while gradually or rapidly sliding into authoritarianism, or perhaps something worse."

"For the vast majority of American Jews over the age of 30 or so, Jewish identity was for their whole lives inextricably linked to support for Israel. Reform and Orthodox temples might disagree about whether women can be ordained as rabbis, but they both hang Israeli flags. Jewish day schools teach love of Israel along with Hebrew and the meaning of the holidays."

"We were told that we’re better than others, and this is something we don’t mention too often when speaking to non-Jews. Better not just in our achievements, but morally. We seek justice, we value equality, not just for ourselves but for everyone, precisely because of what we endured at the hands of Pharaoh and Torquemada and Hitler."

"This is the final triumph of the tribalist version of Jewish identity. Even Jews who still believe in the superiority & attendant obligations with which they were inculcated in their youth will have a great deal of trouble looking at what Israel has done and continues to do — & in that I include the ongoing brutality, dehumanization, & deprival of rights to which West Bank Palestinians are subjected — and say that we as a people are uniquely virtuous."
