UK To Push The "Antisemitism" Psyop Even Harder In Schools (Caitlin’s Newsletter, 2026-10-22) https://substack.com/@caitlinjohnstone/p-221579719 ——— >> The UK’s Department for Education has released a 107-page review which asserts that much more needs to be done to protect Jewish students in England from discrimination... >> The review, led by Sir David Bell, … mentions the word “Israel” or “Israeli” 60 times and the word “#Palestine” or “Palestinian” 35 times. >> So, as always, it is clear that this isn’t actually about protecting a religious minority from persecution. >> … 27 recommendations for dealing with “antisemitism” in English schools, which the government has reportedly accepted ... The first recommendation is adopting the hotly disputed International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (#IHRA) working definition of antisemitism which lists common criticisms of the state of Israel as hateful toward Jews… #UKPol #FakeAntisemitism #CaitlinJohnstone@palestine@lemmy.ml @palestine@fedibird.com

ALL Art Is Political When You Live In A Genocidal Dystopia (Caitlin’s Newsletter, 2026-10-16) https://www.caitlinjohnst.one/p/all-art-is-political-when-you-live ——— >> … western artists who ignore the abuses of the western empire are taking a political position and sharing a political message. They might be singing about romance, or dancing, or the Sandman, but their actual message is, “Here are those circuses you ordered, you vapid NPCs, you mindless empire automatons, you shambling zombies consuming the flesh of the third world. Distract yourselves from the burning ecosystem, from the screams of #Gaza, from the suffering of the poor and the marginalized, from the AI-assisted surveillance system they are constructing all around you right this very moment. Pretend everything’s fine and capitalism is working out great for everyone...” #CaitlinJohnstone #palestine@palestine@lemmy.ml @palestine@fedibird.com

Being Forcefully Pro-Palestine Weeds The Terrible People Out Of Your Life (Caitlin's Newsletter, 2026-10-01) https://www.caitlinjohnst.one/p/being-forcefully-pro-palestine-weeds >> Supporting Palestine doesn’t automatically make you a good person; opposing genocide and apartheid is just the basic bare-minimum position we’re all morally obligated to take. #CaitlinJohnstone #palestine@palestine@lemmy.ml @palestine@fedibird.com

Macklemore's Tour Cancellation Shows Why Celebrities Don't Criticize Israel (Caitlin's Newsletter, 2026-09-15) https://www.caitlinjohnst.one/p/macklemores-tour-cancellation-shows ------ >> If you want to be a mainstream artist in this dystopia, your vehicles for creative expression are (A) propaganda or (B) empty distraction... >> ... the mainstream artists of our day are actually just mercenaries for the western empire. #EdSheeran kicked #Macklemore off the tour as soon as the Zionist billionaire told him to, ... Sheeran is essentially just a rich, soft-handed thug responsible for keeping any dissident ideas from reaching the ears of his audience, which is why he’s been allowed to become as famous as he has... >> Mainstream culture is designed to keep us docile, ignorant and submissive while thinking we are free. This is the dystopia we were warned about generations ago by fiction writers describing the dark future they saw approaching. This is it. We are living in it. #CaitlinJohnstone #palestine@palestine@fedibird.com
