Heidi Li FeldmanA word about #ADL: As with most organizations, I don’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

Half a million in a year. https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/half-million-left-germanys-catholic-church-year-abuse-100436173
