A lot of people responding with some variation of shock that people who the "Holocaust" happened to would act like thisthis. But as @eyshe.bsky.social and I's forthcoming volume illustrates (not to mention a large academic literature), the Nazi Holocaust is not the Basis of Zionism or Israel.

Ben Gvir posted this video on twitter today which shows fat and happy Palestinians on a conveyer built going through the Israeli "prison" (torture camp) system and coming out emaciated and maudlin. This is textbook genocidal content.

This is the secret i have been sitting on for a year. Thank you so much to my good friend and coeditor @eyshe.bsky.social and the folks at Haymarket books

Finally, we are bubbling with anticipation for the upcoming release of "We Traitors: Bundist Writings on Zionism, Palestine, and Socialism" by Der Spekter editor @eyshe.bsky.social and @nathantankus.bsky.social. Preorders open in the next few days, and we will make sure to remind you once again.

It will never be enough because Mamdani’s crime is his religion and skin colour, not his actual politics. Ever since he won there have been Republican and even some Democrat politicians saying all sorts of monstrous things about Muslims and others and they will never get this sort of scrutiny.

rather than condemn the phrase, he maintained that it’s not language he would use, and that he is committed to ensuring the safety of Jews AND Israelis in New York with actual government investment like, what more could you want?

I'm not on Bluesky much yet/ever — BUT I am very proud to be translating these historically important letters + especially to be publishing them in @derspekter.bsky.social. Please read!

Second is the translation of Jacob Pat's "The Two Worlds of Zionism and Socialism," the first in a series of translations of Pat's writing by Yiddish scholar and our new editor @eyshe.bsky.social. Like many Bundist historical works this reads like something from today.

Sholem aleykhem khaverim Der Spekter is back this week with more great Bundist work. We kick off with an editorial cartoon by @andy-singer.bsky.social. Andy sent this to us a few months back and it was only a matter of time before its accuracy reflected current events

Panel 1: Israel guy with Uncle Sam standing behind him kicks Iran guy. Panel 2: Israel guy stands behind Uncle Sam and says "defend me."
