Yknow what? Fuck it, I was looking for a post about it and realised I can just make my own.
People saying Jack Black’s new YouTube channel is proof he’s part of some “reptilian government” or really anything about him that talks about him being related to anything reptilian is blatant antisemitism. Jack Black is a Jewish man. His mother is an ethnic Jew, his father’s a Jewish convert and he’s a practicing Jew raising his children Jewish.
And anyone who’s going head to head with the antisemites posting that stuff who say it’s “silly alt right conspiracies” or in any way belittles the reptilian stuff without acknowledging it’s antisemitic roots should Absolutely be held accountable for learning about why it’s antisemitic and arguing against it. You’re trivialising things used against Jews to harass and oppress us, and you need to stop, get educated, and care about Jews.
This goes a thousand fucking times more because he started the channel with the stated aim of unseating a Nazi sympathizer.
when i was a little kid, i didn’t care for movies. my parents always admonished me for sitting too close to the screen or fidgeting too much, so i turned to books instead. when i was four, i tried to watch the first harry potter movie. i absolutely loved it, but it wasn’t enough for me. i had to get my hands on that book. the teachers at pre-school said it was a horrible idea, but i read the first two books anyway.
then came kindergarten. the teachers scolded my parents for letting me bring novels to school. “she can’t possibly understand them,” they said. so they gave me tests on the books. i made perfect scores on all of them. i preferred books to movies and television; movies didn’t do justice to the stories i loved.
so, they marked me down as a “gifted child.” they tested my IQ and everything. i was the perfect student, in their eyes. i sat in the front and listened to the teachers as intently as i could.
one day after school, i ran up to my mother and hugged her. then, i turned my head and saw my mother walking towards me. i looked up at the woman i had hugged. “you’re not my mother,” i said, astutely.
my mother, a clever woman, thought to have my eyesight tested. turns out, i had horrible vision. somewhere around 20/450. functionally blind without glasses. not ideal for anyone, especially a six year old.
all my life until that point, people thought i must be some sort of brilliant prodigy, eschewing television and movies for more intellectual pursuits, but actually i just couldn’t fucking see lol
This took a different direction than I was expecting.
Me, a 12 year old child reading “A Series of Unfortunate Events” 14 years ago: What a fascinating but terribly upsetting journey these kids are on! I’m sure they can handle it though, Violet is 15 and therefor very Old and Mature. She got this.
Me, now 26, watching these small children be tortured: what the fuck what the fuck what the f—
