    Just once I’d love to see a large news organization like Variety not put quotes around the word genocide.

    It is good to see people with popular influence paying back to the world by wielding it responsibly and justly (unlike shitheads like Rowling).

    Ellison struck back saying that committing genocide is part of the Jewish culture, written down in their most holy writings, a sacred commandment from yhwh, and that to call them out on it was “antisemitic”.

    I think that’s pretty fucked up. I know people of Jewish faith and they are not like that at all even though Israel is. But I’m not a Jew so it’s not really my place to call out ellison for throwing every Jewish person under the bus like that. I hope those of the faith can set him and Israel straight.
