and hades and persephone, they took each other’s hands, and, brother, you know what they did?

Do you want to know what you can really do to help, though? We’ve got killers referencing “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion” in all seriousness. Can we agree, as a group, that jokes coming from it aren’t cool? Can we stop perpetuating the antisemitic canards?

This means:

No secret lizard people jokes. These come via David Icke, who proposed that Zionists were reptilian aliens hiding among real people.

No Illuminati/‘secret cabal of bankers, media moguls and politicians running the world’ commentary. This is also often a dogwhistle for ‘them rich Jews run everything!’

Diligence to avoid promoting the blood libel–the ancient lie that Jewish people kill Christian babies for our matzah, or other lies that make us out as predators who seek the blood of our enemies.

Shut down Holocaust denial. Do I need to explain this one further?

A detailed list of antisemitic canards ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antisemitic_canard ) can be found on Wikipedia. If you hear these come up, whether it’s at work or at home, with older people who ‘just don’t know any better’ or your children, please shut this shit down. It is literally getting people killed.

A former staff engineer, who recently left Tumblr and asked to remain anonymous for professional reasons, tells Vox that the NSFW ban was “in the works for about six months as an official project,” adding that it was given additional resources and named “Project X” in September, shortly before it was announced to the rest of the company at an all-hands meeting. “[The NSFW ban] was going to happen anyway,” the former engineer told me. “Verizon pushed it out the door after the child pornography thing and made the deadline sooner,” but the real problem was always that Verizon couldn’t sell ads next to porn.

Porn on Tumblr is something Verizon needs to wipe out if it’s going to make any money off what it thinks is actually valuable about the platform — enormous fandom and social justice communities that, just before the Verizon acquisition, Khalaf was insisting the staff figure out how to better monetize.
