burning inside

Hello! Starting today you can pre-order The Brazey Album on Bandcamp, which includes all recordings made for the Brazey series of films and videos from 2016 till now. Additionally, purchasing this album will give you early access to watch the latest film, Brazey & D'Bruppy, before it's made available to the public later this year.

As an exclusive bonus, if you pre-order in the next 9 days and send a proof of purchase (message, DM, email, etc to @itsbrazey or @jdweiss), you will receive a personalized drawing, digitally, as a thank you.

Again, regardless if you pre-order or not, you'll still get early access to the film.

This is not something "in the past" (btw, those posts about how the Holocaust was "sooooo long ago" are fucking disgusting!), antisemitic violence is a global ongoing reality. Synagogues are being threatened and attacked, Jewish people are being harassed and murdered, Jewish-owned businesses are being threatened and vandalized, there are people in the streets calling for a Jewish genocide, and there are ongoing pogroms and expulsions of Jewish communities.

Jewish people did not leave their respective home countries for funsies, they left because those countries made it extremely and violently clear that they were not welcome. Many Israelis can't "go back home" because those "homes" chased them out at gunpoint or worse.

Again, this is not about having to support Israeli or the actions of the Israeli government. It's literally just about not spreading antisemitic rhetoric and revisionist history that tries to blame Jewish people for antisemitism (and yes, I've seen those "Zionism makes Jews think they can't belong anywhere else" posts, as if the constant hate and violence isn't at all part of that).

I don't feel safe in the queer spaces that I have cherished for over 15 years, and I just missed my cities biggest queer event of the year for the first time except lockdown because I wasn't confident I could safely attend.

I quit my local wobs branch because saying "'Zio' is a neo-nazi term" means they have a meeting without telling you.

The first expulsion of Jews listed on the Wikipedia article is from the 8th century BCE.
