One experience that I think most Jews have had post-10/7 is that of solidarity. The non-Jewish world is increasingly unsafe for us, so many have banded together. Babka Social is an example of that, as most of the new accounts we have aren't from people who want to try Mastodon/the Fediverse, but Jews who were persecuted on other servers.

This article about Jewish authors who have been persecuted or blacklisted and have come together is an example of the kind of Jewish resilience that we have, but I wish we didn't need.

@serge “I broke away from the agency when they shared content that vilified Israel while I was quite literally sheltering my three young children from ballistic missiles.”

That hits to the gut.

@ArneBab

I feel this way a bit when I read antisemitism on the Fediverse while I know my family are in hiding in a shelter that very moment.
