@cell the whole zionist project is absolutely unbelievable. revived a dead country and a dead language.
@lain and that they’re not picky about which Jews were eligible for the project, whether it be slipping Russian Jews out of the USSR or airlifting Ethiopian Jews out of a conflict zone
@cell the Yiddish language was a collateral victim, unfortunately
@bartholin @cell yiddish is still spoken, no?
@cell @lain https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/2/6/what-barak-epstein-audio-says-about-israeli-controlling-demographics interesting this touches on that
@cell I feel like if not for how disastrously the whole state of israel thing was handled, zionism would be considered a great success story today.
