In October, Israelis will elect their government for the first time since October 7th. And although every election is important, this one feels like a pivotal moment. Here’s how Israel’s system works, the most likely candidates for prime minister, and the key issues being contested. I’ll keep breaking it down between now and October. So stay tuned for updates.
Let’s talk about what just happened with @MarkRuffalo. This week, Mark went after David Ellison and his father Larry Ellison over the Paramount—Warner Bros. merger, and in doing so engaged in age-old antisemitic tropes. Mark responded by saying he has Jewish friends. And that he’s not antisemitic. But no one called him an antisemite. They said he was promoting antisemitic tropes, and the fact that he can’t tell the difference is the problem. Sometimes antisemitism is like water to a fish. These are subconscious biases against Jew. The belief that Jews are just too powerful, that they have these mythological superpowers. Controlling the media, manipulating governments, starting wars, wielding endless money. One side of Jew hatred dehumanizes us as beneath society. The other demonizes us as secretly running it. Both are antisemitism. Mark, if you have a criticism of the merger, then criticize the merger. Just don’t reach for 2,000-year-old conspiracy theories to make your case.
