A word about #ADL: As with most organizations, I donโ€™t agree with every position they take. But when Musk accuses the most organized voice against #antisemitism in the U.S. of costing him ad revenue, he is leaning on a most #antisemitic dog whistle (that Jews control the media) and he most definitely knows it. 1/2
When the administration of my university and my faculty refused to take a stand against #antisemitism on campus, #ADL provided a systematic, safe way to raise the problem with the dean and the president of the university. There was no other way this could have been done. Whether on the bird site or elsewhere, it is imperative to have organizations to object and to educate about antisemitism and other forms of racism and bigotry. 2/2
@heidilifeldman Does the ADL deserve recourse for making wild unverified claims about old Catholic schools killing and burying native Canadian children? These claims resulted in the arson of dozens of Christian churches in Canada.

@michaelofstjoseph @heidilifeldman 'During a penitential pilgrimage to Canada in July 2022, Pope Francis reiterated the apologies of the Catholic Church for its role, also acknowledging the system as genocide. In October 2022, the House of Commons unanimously passed a motion calling on the federal Canadian government to recognize the residential school system as genocide.'

Fuck off, you anti-semetic dickbag.

@raddude12 @heidilifeldman Pope Fransis apologizes for everything, it means nothing. Also, surely they can dig up one single example of these supposed murders? Right? https://nypost.com/2023/08/31/still-no-evidence-of-mass-graves-of-indigenous-children-in-canada/
No human remains found 2 years after claims of 'mass graves' in Canada

After 2021 claims of mass graves of indigenous children at residential schools across Canada, leading to widespread protests, excavations have turned up no human remains.

Residential school denialists tried to dig up suspected unmarked graves in Kamloops, B.C., report finds | CBC News

Residential school deniers tried to dig up suspected unmarked grave sites at the former Kamloops Indian Residential School, not believing a May 2021 announcement that at as many as 215 Indigenous children had been buried there, according to a new report.

CBC

@michaelofstjoseph @heidilifeldman

The residential schools in Australia, New Zealand, and Canada all have unmarked graves with Indigenous and non-indigenous children in them.

They died of tuberculosis, typhus, polio, influenza, measles, smallpox, neglect, malnourishment, beatings, suicide, sexual predation, substance abuse, hyperthermia (frozen to death while attempting to run away)

@michaelofstjoseph @heidilifeldman those claims are absolutely accurate and consistent with the Catholic Church's murderously abusive behaviour as an institution world wide. I'm sorry that's so difficult to accept. It's why, for instance, Germans are fleeing the church in their hundreds of thousands. Half a million in a year. https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/half-million-left-germanys-catholic-church-year-abuse-100436173
More than half a million left Germany's Catholic Church last year as abuse scandal swirls

More than half a million people formally left the Catholic Church in Germany last year, significantly higher than the previous record as the church wrestles with a long-running scandal over abuse by clergy and with calls for far-reaching reform

@michaelofstjoseph @heidilifeldman I'm reporting you for denying genocide.

@Geoffberner @heidilifeldman

Can you point to where I denied anything? I said "wild unverified claims." It is possible the claims are true, but there has yet to be any evidence produced from the alleged grave sites originally found 2 years ago. In the vandalism against Churches you read "dig them up." They started digging and have found nothing. The moment there is a "mass" amount of child remains found at the specific sites alleged, I will reverse course.
