I’m sorry, but if you follow me or frequent my page and are voting for Donald trump, please unfollow me. I will not ask you to defend yourself, I will not ask for any kind of response to this because by you simply voting for Trump you’ve agreeded to the divisive stances he’s taken on communities who are simply asking for a chance to succeed in this world. To be better than they have been in the past.

I do not want this page, my posts, or any member of the communities I’m involved in to be associated with a symbol of systemic hate, racism, and disgusting behavior the President emits and a vote for him is an agreement to that.

Unfollow me. Do not like my posts. Do not try and defend your actions.

This country deserves better. Black people, LGBTQIA+ people, Hispanic people, Asian people, Muslim people, religious people, non-religious people, women, men, children, everyone deserves better than what we have in office now.

Vote November 3rd. If you can’t, help spread the word and try and influence people that their vote matters.

every day i find new ways to loathe white western vegans who willingly remain ignorant of indigenous cultivation and culinary traditions

like, in southern mexico, the maya have been tending honey bees for thousands of years. it is part of tradition, nutrition, and cultural endurance. meanwhile, the white vegan demands to use agave nectar as an alternative. but agave nectar, which comes from the desert plant the agave, requires an absurd amount of water to grow in order to meet the rising demands for this honey alternative. so not only does the white western vegan participate in an unnessary usage of precious desert water, which they pretend to care so deeply about when they somewhat correctly critique the meat and dairy industry, they are also diverting water from communities (to a growing form of industrial agriculture) and ignoring the cultural value of a foodstuff, honey, that has been sustainable for thousands of years in the hands of indigenous central americans (among others).

Apparently this is not the first time police have tried to disguise themselves as Orthodox Jews before. This is so insidious.

@queermachmir not only that but I am wondering if they are hoping to intentionally strain black-Jewish relations by doing this. Seems a classic pattern in history, ruling class hopes to stoke hatred/blame on Jews so people don’t see the real problem.

How can you tell they're cops???

Many of the things that people think of as visually distinguishing about frum Jews have actual religious and cultural significance, and it can be very obvious when someone doesn’t know that and does them wrong as a result.

In this picture, the undercover cop is wearing a dark suit and a hat, but is not wearing tzitzit, the religious garment that all men from this community wear pretty much at all times. Not only that, but he has peyot (side curls) but does not have a beard, which flies in the face of the entire religious reason for having peyot. Additionally, although it isn’t shown in the picture here, one of the cops was also wearing a cheap plastic kippah from a completely different movement of Judaism (because I guess all Jews are the same to them?) and was seen blatantly doing things which would be considered to break the Shabbos.

The combined effect is like seeing a woman wearing niquab together with a mini-skirt  – it’s not only extremely off, but it’s honestly rather offensive. It looks like they bought a suit and fake, costume peyot from a racist halloween store that also sells costumes of “Mexicans” and “geishas”. 

There have been plenty of attempts by the ruling class to pit Jews and the Black community against each other before. Don’t fall for it when they try it now.
