I could go on forever about this, but I’ll just say—a healthy democracy functions best when its people are informed, and it’s extremely important that journalism remains an independent & robust enterprise. Many issues with the industry, but its current dismantling is a net negative for any community
I’m proud to be a journalist, even as the industry in the US is cratering and being stripped for parts and reporters here and all over the world are risking life and livelihood to tell important stories. Especially proud to be amongst a group of truly talented, endlessly empathetic, intelligent ppl
It’s World Press Freedom Day, and I want to step up on my little soapbox and remember those of us who didn’t make it last year—in Gaza, especially, but all around the world; & those of us who are doxxed/threatened/intimidated/arrested/killed for doing vitally important work, and keep doing it anyway

Here we see the Heritage Foundation explicitly accusing Jewish Voice for Peace and many other Jewish people of being "antisemitic." They want Jewish people to be harassed and terrorized as "antisemites" if they don't participate in the Christian Nationalist project represented by gentile Zionism.
It's Going Down@igd.bsky.social · 2y agoAfter helping elect Trump, the billionaire backed Heritage Foundation is following up Project 2025 with Project Esther, a playbook for repression against the anti-war movement in solidarity with #Palestine. Using anti-Semitic tropes against "Soros,' it seeks to directly target anti-Zionist Jews.
