There’s a day of hate being planned against Jews for the 25th. Some shitheads on Telegram are calling for it. I have no idea if anything will happen or not, but people want it to happen. They want more pogroms, more massacres. Check in with your Jewish friends. This shit is getting worse and we are not okay
Jewish Groups Brace for Possible “Day of Hate”

Various Jewish groups have issued statements advising the community on what to do to combat a possible “National Day of Hate” that white supremacists are

Jewish Journal
@princesaballena it should be labeled domestic terrorism or hate crimes.
@princesaballena The escalation of antisemitism since 2016 is horrifying. Not laying all of the blame on tRump, but he absolutely let the scum climb out from under their rocks.
It's sad that so many (not just Jewish people)have to live in fear because of blind hatred.
@princesaballena
Coincidentally, the 25th is now Punch-a-Nazi Day.
@moliver I’m liking that coincidence! Now where are my knuckle rings, I wonder
@princesaballena
Makes me wish I had a nice big ring with a Star of David embossed. Just to give a little souvenir.
@moliver @princesaballena Just fire up the Jewish Space Laser! Sure, punching gives some satisfaction, but blowing up someone’s truck sends a message.
@princesaballena And we’re getting official messages about safety from our synagogues here in NYC.
@Skawt in NYC! The nerve of these fascists!
@princesaballena Fortunately our shul has armed police when there’s threats like this.
@princesaballena Just heard from some peeps in Brooklyn. They are not going to go gently into that good night.
@beatnikprof good. Don’t be messing with Brooklyn Jews, man
@princesaballena I agree with you and I am not a Jew in fact am an agnostic.
@princesaballena This makes me so fucking angry. I am sorry you're having to deal with this kind of garbage.
@princesaballena where's the source of info on this? I'd love to be able to warn people. I mean, is it just a rumor on social media or has it been documented in some way?
@JohnShirley2023 it’s always good to be careful. The call is being made on Telegraph, but I r has enough substance that police are being summoned to protect synagogues on Saturday https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/nypd-to-up-security-at-religious-sites-after-white-supremacists-declare-antisemitic-day-of-hate/
NYPD to up security at religious sites after white supremacists declare antisemitic ‘Day of hate’

@princesaballena unfortunately there's too much focus on knucklehead stuff like whether Goblins are acmeraphoe for Jews or of there's a hidden reference to a massacre that no right wong nit will even get. Let's pay attention to the things that are actually threats and the people literally getting killed. No metaphor needed.

@princesaballena

25th is Saturday. Police has to protect synagoges especially.

@princesaballena I have some Jewish ancestry. My great grandfather and his mother were murdered by Hitler. Growing up, I didn't have much connection to Judaism religiously or culturally but the one thing that I have always felt in my bones is the generational trauma of the Holocaust. The knowledge that it absolutely can happen here, and to expect the fascists when they come. I pray that it doesn't happen but I am not encouraged by the number of people in this country who seem so willing to give up every ideal they pay lip service to in their faux-patriotic nationalistic ferver just to prostrate themselves before an authoritarian fascist leader who spews an ideology of hate. Take care and stay safe. I really hope everything turns out ok.
@theropologist I grew up thinking that we were safe here. That was a very nice and comfortable delusion. Anyway - thank you for replying. I also hope that we’re ready for the fascists
@princesaballena WTF?!!
I hope it's just a malicious campaign to frighten people and is not put into action, but even if that's what it is it's still horrifying that there are people considering it.
I hope all my Jewish friends in the US stay safe
@CrazyMyra thank you! Given what we’ve been seeing in rising fascism news, it’s going to mostly fizzle out, but someone always gets hurt in these things. I hate anticipating it
@canusfeminacanis rising fascism is so much fun, isn’t it??

@princesaballena
Beyond.

Obviously, I'll have to play the soundtrack of The Producers more often.

Then again, irony may miss its mark. Anti-WASP graffiti may be more successful.

I'm gonna be 60 in a few weeks, and now I have to think like a teenager ....

@princesaballena Not the first time the fuckers have done this sort of thing. Does anybody have any details aside from police reactions and general alarm? I’m in Canada and wondering if they’re coordinating with our local fucknuggets.
@cautionwip I haven’t heard anything about Canada but I’ll come back and update you if I do! I think the original call is going out from Iowa, so I’d expect violence there, and I understand that New York City and Brooklyn are being targeted
@princesaballena Thanks. We’ve got our own network of thugs up here that are known to coordinate and liaise with those in your country, so this kinda shit can easily spread.
@princesaballena I’m Jewish. Can someone check in on me? Just kidding. I don’t live in a Nazi zone. Yet. ✡️
@GreatWordsmith consider this to be that I’m checking in on you! We don’t have to be living in Nazi zones to find this bone chilling
@princesaballena It's important to remember that different cultures have different ways of expressing care and concern. As a Jewish person, as much as I appreciate the sentiment of checking in on my well-being in the face of antisemitism, it would be more congruent with my cultural heritage to express care and concern by bringing me a sack of fresh severed Nazi testicles.
@siderea I am so glad I read this whole reply. It started off a little too contemporary but the turn was amazing!
@siderea @jwz @princesaballena how fresh counts as "fresh"? I wouldn't want to be culturally insensitive by presenting some of the older testicles in the sack.

@womble
Not frozen, dried, or preserved. Obvs.

@jwz @princesaballena

@womble
But to be clear, if you have halachic concerns, consult a rabbi in your own minhag.

@jwz @princesaballena

@siderea @womble

Unfortunately, Nazi testicles are currently in season.

@princesaballena We should probably have a network of protection in place for synagogues, and Jewish neighborhoods and businesses. I would like to see community pushback, and for the the progressive churches to get involved in standing up to this with vocal and concrete measures.
@kimlockhartga thank you so much. This reply filled me with hope.
@princesaballena I always assumed that humanity would grow up and this kind of thing was only in the past. This really makes me feel hopeless.
@sgtnasty I know just what you mean - so if it’s hopeless, let’s go down swinging or keep our loved ones safe. Let’s just do our best in the face of this hate!
@princesaballena This is beyond scary. And no, we are not okay.
@Saltssaltgirl I comfort my self that probably not much will happen - and probably not much will. But that will be no comfort at all to those who have to face the neo-nazis
@princesaballena the temples around my house have sent out warnings. I truly hope nothing happens.
@Saltssaltgirl me too. I always love being wrong about stuff like this
