And finally--I don't think we gotta hand it to Hamas. Why am I seeing Hamas lionized in the activist space, especially the labour movement? I'm not being snarky. I honestly don't understand. I don't see how replacing one anti-LBGTQ theocracy with another benefits Palestinians. ⬇️

It's dichotomy addiction, at least partially. Things MUST have opposites, and if I don't like one thing then its opposite MUST be good!

I had a good friend tell me, "I studied a bit on Judaism. It's incredible how many branches and sub-branches there are, and how beliefs differ between them." That was the best thing a non-Jew ever said to me. "Wow, I don't understand shit about your culture!" Thank you! That's OK to admit! ⬇️

Yeah, it reads to me as "the enemy of my enemy deserves a little slack" logic. Feels a little short-sighted, but I haven't read Marx so what do I know??
