I was a big fan of Sarah Silverman before she dropped a huge rant about how genocide is okay because the kids would otherwise grow up to be terrorrirsts and then locked comments for a year on IG. I got my post deleted off her subreddit back then when I posted screenshots for not being relevant to her. Kinda bothered me that she said all that shit seriously and then just covered it up.

Her being friends with Jay Johnston makes sense.

I had already stopped watching h3 years ago but what hes become in the last few years has made me feel a lot better about that decision.

It’s 2025, and mfs are still making land claims based off religion and bs from thousands of years ago. Feel like I’m living in crusader kings.

    Congresswoman Sarah McBride is the one that really hurts for me. First trans member of congress at a time when that kind of representation is desperately needed. She would be a ray of hope and a rare bit of uplifting news, but she has to be a fucking Zionist. Many trans spaces I’m in want nothing to do with her over it.

    Not the most disappointing, but just to name someone that hasn’t been mentioned yet here:

    Wife made me watch OUAT over the holiday break. Turns out Ginnifer Goodwin is a Zionist bc of course she is.

    Edit: From Wikipedia

    In February 2024, Goodwin signed an open letter by Creative Community for Peace rejecting calls for Israel to be banned from Eurovision 2024 amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.

    Amy Schumer. I thought she was hilarious and all the haters should go fuck themselves. I still want to think that but it’s hard.

    Just off the top of my head:

    Steven Wilson, one of the most influential artists in my creative life. Turns out even some of the songs were even recorded there. I don’t even think he has a familial claim to benefit from Zionism, I think he’s just gotten roped in. At least I tell myself that.

    Sacha Baron Cohen, IMO one of the most brilliant comedians. I don’t think he’s necessarily an extremist to the extent that Natenyahu is, knowing his politics, but that is the logical conclusion of Zionism and just being on that path is all the red flags in the world.

    Quentin Tarantino, bro why

    I actually can’t think of many. I’m from Lebanon and if it’s even a small part of someone’s public life we just avoid them, it’s been that way for very long. So there’s an extent to which these people are filtered out.

    I also don’t use traditional social media at all so something like the Sarah Silverman meltdown you mention would be completely off my radar.

    Scream. Firing two lead actors for condemning genocide is honestly just ghoulish to the point where it’s self-destructive.

    Had some really good friends that were adamant that the war on Gaza was just war. They were good examples of Progressive Except Palestine (PEP). It became pretty hard to continue the friendship knowing they were okay with killing people as long as it was brown people.

    Made a new friend a few years ago. We performed together, wrote an act together, and used to hang out a bunch. At least, until she started complaining about my partner’s anti-genocide posts and calling her antisemitic. We stopped talking

    Every time that Trump said antisemitic things I donated to one of the local synagogues.

    Every since the “we blow up children with fake pagers” I have not donated to a synagogue. It has ruined my ability to feel compassion for the members of synagogues.

      I’m partly repeating what others have replied, but when a nearby synagogue hosted a Zionist corporate event, some of the protesters alongside us were members who normally worshipped at that synagogue and felt disgusted.

      And, for an extreme example of anti-Zionist Judaism, here’s some Hasidic Jews over in London, including their Rabbi, publicly burning an Israeli flag: https://www.vice.com/en/article/anti-zionist-orthodox-jews-flag-burning-protest-109/

      “The whole state of Israel is not legal from the Jewish viewpoint,” said the flag burning’s organizer, Rabbi Elhanan Beck, adding, “The Messiah will not be [Israeli Prime Minister] Netanyahu.”

      Donate to Sikh kitchens. Core tenant of their religion is simple acts of kindness for the sake of being kind. They take everyone in at Sikh kitchens. Even cities in Texas and CA that like to ban feeding the homeless can’t do shit about these kitchens because it is recognized as a part of their worship.

      I wouldn’t donate to houses of worship just on principle, but it’s important to remember that non-Zionist Jews and anti-Zionist Jews do exist, and not only secular ones. The Star of David on the Israeli flag is insidious propaganda, conflating a religion and a diasporic people with Zionist settler-colonism.

      Be careful, some of them support zionisms. There was two incidents of real estate events promoting property sales in the West Bank inside a synagogues
