"#Drescher defended herself vigorously after a complaint from a viewer in a letter to the #LATimes, arguing along similar lines that her character “displays such a great capacity for love and wisdom, and has such wholesome values and good instincts as a #Jew, a #woman, and above all, a human being” that she found it “infuriating” to regard “with negativity” a character “who is clearly carving inroads for other #Jews.” In Drescher’s view, her character upset the “the fearful post-World War II mentality that a #goodJew is an #assimilated one.” “My character does not try to assimilate late to a #WASP #ethnic in appearance or speech,” she insists. “I speak #Yiddish and celebrate the #Jewish holidays” on the #show."

Fran Drescher's show caused controversy for its portrayal of Jews.

  • These people fucking SUCK, so there is no doubt they're a Bad Jew.
  • It costs absolutely nothing to defend them, just saying "This was wrong." and not inventing a justification.
  • We have literal A/B testing for this behavior, in this location, for this reason, so it is indefensibly clear this is specific to Jews
  • Lots of people are talking about it, so it is easy to highlight later
  • The lowest stakes, easiest opportunity to defend a Bad Jew, and it is still impossible to make them budge.

    The state of "Left Wing" discourse, maintaining absolutely no sense of irony.

    Just genuinely unbelievable to me that they're literally talking about the exact same people, saying the exact same things about them, but are so lacking in self-awareness that they think, despite being identical, there is some meaningful difference.

    It's the height of "I hate antisemites, but I won't defend the Jew" discourse.

    @dukepaaron is totally 100% right that neither Pritzker (though he never would be picked anyways) nor Shapiro nor any other Jew can be selected or this shit will get massively worse.

    Anyways, I wrote an actually good introduction to discussing and learning about Antisemitism and Jews. Bonus points for being about Jews themselves, by an actually Jewish person, and not by and about non-Jewish attitudes, which outnumber us over 1000-1.

    As you will see, my post, written over a year and a half ago, already covers the other suggestion you received. It is no coincidence that I was able to predict their suggestions so easily. The alternative is explained in the article.

    Fight Antisemitism or Become a Better Antisemite

    For others, this may all be a new experience. Either new to the conversation on antisemitism, new to recognizing you’re in a cycle of the same conversations, or new to deciding to get involved.

    Every time I read the things a Good Jew has to say, I thank Hashem I am lucky enough to be a Bad Jew.

    Tbh, I think that sounds a lot like saying to non-Jews, "Don't get mad at me. I agree that Jewish prayer at the Temple Mount is cause for violence."

    I don't think we *should*. As I pointed out elsewhere, #BenGvir is hijacking Judaism's holiest site for a political purpose (violence and death to help him politically, which is just evil). Part of why he has no business in government.

    But this can unintentionally come across as #GoodJew/ #BadJew
