Messages of anti-trans activists in France were leaked.

They explain that they want to flood doctors with lawsuits and don’t care if they always lose.

Why? It’ll still wear the doctors down and discourage them from practicing—pointing to one who burned out as proof.

It’s interesting and not coincidental that the public disdain of trans women
is at its peak while famous c*s women everywhere are adopting what I can only describe as the sissy aesthetic

Now people notice. Trump said it in the Time interview, Scott says it here. It isn't a joke. Trump will not concede. We are in a better position than 2024, but he will promote violence as a way to mute his loss and placate his ego. I wrote about how to get ready in April ⬇️.

Or new forms of Jewish life (already arising on tons of campuses) will be created by Jewish anti-Zionists. I don’t have the power to say “you can’t ban anti/non-Zionism” but…I can say “If you do, and people call to withhold support as a result, the reason isn’t antisemitism.’”

I loved and continue to love Hillel’s work, for what it meant to my life and thousands of others. Absolutely essential. But this is an inflection point. Either they’ll find a way to prioritize all students, and eliminate their standards of partnership on Israel…

Folks are responding, now, with “how dare you boycott Hillel. It’s antisemitic to do so.” Nope! Can’t have it both ways. Either “go start your own Jewish org, leave us alone” is the move or “we are Jewish life. Boycotting us is boycotting Jewish life entirely.” Can’t be both.

Now, students have started their own Jewish groups. They, and non-Jewish students as well, are naming that Hillel is actively committed to not being a space for all Jewish students across ideologies. Which Hillel has actively affirmed is true (not a space for non/anti-Zionists).

At every turn, people criticized our work to change Hillel with “Hillel is a Zionist project. If you want a different kind of Jewish org, stop asking us to change! Start up your own Jewish space.”

Former Hillel International board member here (student representative, 2011-13). For many years, folks (me included) tried to change it from within, to be a politically pluralistic space for Jewish students across Zionism and Anti-Zionism (through Open Hillel most prominently).
