Goot morgen mayn gunsa gelechten! As a Yiddish speaker (and aunty-semit) since age five (finef), I would just like to elaborate on Mr. Karon's use of the word 'booba meis'.. We here Down Under call them 'Booba Marsa's', which directly translates to 'Grandmother's tales' ie BULLSHIT! We also use the abbreviation 'BOOBES' as in 'every that comes out of Trumps mouth is complete BOOBES or 'narish' ie STUPIDITY! Thank you, now gay cucken oyfen yam mit di gunsa megila hasboyreh boobes and meshigarse!

2025-09-07 18:20:22 +0000 UTCThis episode really went at liberal Zionism in how delusional it is, and in a way that falls under Political Psychology: That Zionists in the west can customize an interpretation of it, one completely divorced from history, in order to keep calling themselves that. It is not an organized movement, it doesn’t need to be, but it is a stubbornness I have never witnessed or even read about. If anyone knows of instances where people held onto “segregationist” or something like that in the same delusional way I would love to know.
