sigh So I gotta move next month (end of March, at most) while dealing with legal snafus of my car accident from last year.

And worse, I was out sick last week and will be short on rent, due on the 1st.

"This is the final battle, neither are we serfs, nor slaves"
Anti-government, anti-MEK, anti-Shah sticker in Iran featuring a modified and mocking version of the monarchist chant: "This is the final battle, Pahlavi is coming back."
The three crossed out heads represent Maryam Rajavi, leader of the MEK on the left, then Khomeini, the Iranian Supreme Leader in the centre, and Reza Pahlavi on the right.

On this day, January 28, in the year 2012, in a face-off with police during the Occupy movement, this enterprising young man in Oakland taught us the proper meaning of "armchair anarchist."

This isn't real this isn't real this isn't real please oh my God this cannot be real.

and now i'm gonna do something you absolutely aren't allowed to do in the context of the Holocaust unless you're Jewish (and i really mean it) and talk about Israel.
people use Israel as a way to not think about the Holocaust. and that's especially true for the people who are sure they're not the ones doing that.

for some people, using Israel to not think about the Holocaust means supporting Israel as a stand in for supporting Jews. "why, we are not antisemitic, we support Israel! we support a specific group of Jews unconditionally, that must mean we don't actually hate Jews deep inside. and of course, our desire that Jews leave our country and move to Israel has nothing to do with the fact that'll mean less Jews around us.
no, we are definitely not the same as the Germans of the 1930s. absolutely not, here's the proof!"

for other people, using Israel to not think about the Holocaust means finding the single evil to solve to prove they are good. "why, Israel is doing evil, and by being against that it means i can't be doing evil! we oppose a genocide now, that's pretty much the same as stopping the genocide then. there is not a smidge of racism in our body.
no, we are definitely not the same as the Germans of the 1930s. absolutely not, here's the proof!"

and that sort of metal gymnastics is effective. those people don't need to think about the Holocaust anymore, they solved it. they atoned for the crimes of their forefathers, they proved it can't happen again. they do it so they can keep the belief that the Holocaust is a done deal, it's over, it's passé.

you can't solve the Holocaust. nothing you do can solve the Holocaust. because you can't take back a genocide.

i wanna make something very clear.
we absolutely do not "talk too much about Jews in the Holocaust". in fact, we don't talk about them enough, because we don't talk enough about the Holocaust.
many white people, especially though not exclusively in formerly Nazi countries, *really* don't like to think about the Holocaust. they want to see it as a done thing, something of the past. "yeah, it was bad that it happened, we shouldn't do it again."
but the thing about genocide is it's not a thing that happens, then ends. there's a reason we separate genocide from other crimes, and that is that genocide is not just murder. victims are not just killed, they are erased. their memories gone, their part of culture not coming back, their language fractured so thoroughly it can irrevocably change and lose its identity within far less than a decade.
the Holocaust didn't "happen". it's still here. it's echoes ringing like that of a large bell, inseparable from the sound of the original strike.

and i wanna make something else very clear. the reason non-Jewish victims of the Holocaust aren't talked about is *because* we don't talk enough about the Holocaust. because people want to reduce this historical moment of people coming together in hate to erase other people in their entirety to just the phrase "six million Jews". the persecution of queer people and Roma and Jehovah's witnesses and Slavs and disabled people wasn't a separate thing, in fact many of the victims from those very groups *were also Jewish* (a fact that modern Nazis know when they deface their momorials with anti-Jewish slogans).

the Holocaust makes people uncomfortable, which is why they try to solve and reframe it.
sit in that discomfort. think about what it means.
