Very sorry for this pain you're experiencing.

Thank you for this.

I’m sorry. The entire world is weeping.

Thank you. It's a comfort to know how many of my fellow Jews are thinking along these lines. ❤️‍🔥

This!

Thank you for writing this. ❤️

Thank you for articulating what I’ve struggled to put into words. I’ve always felt such a powerful sense of belonging in Jewish spaces. The past few months have felt like having the rug pulled out from under me.

I think those who conflate the two are not acting in good faith. Possibly due to being so upset by what's happening, so I try not to judge, just not engage. But yes, two separate concepts can be true at the same time.
