I tend to think "Tik TokSik"--probably unfair, but regardless, there's not much in the fake social as toxic as Meta.

You are by no means the first Jew that I've come across who campaigns against zionism and genocide, but the others are political campaigners and/or journalists (obviously, independent ones as such a stand is a sacking offence). You, on the other hand, are someone who, like me, once believed the Big Lie, the story of the victims subjected to Palestinian violence when just innocently trying to live peacefully in their ancestral home.

The media didn't always give Israel immunity. To me shame, I once wrote in protest to the "West Australian" after an article attributed a massacre of Palestinians refugees in Beirut to Israel, when the killing was done by Maronite Lebanese. Decades later I learned how Israel co-ordinated the atrocity with the militia.

I know it must be totally overwhelming for you Veronica but know that there are many like me that have followed you on social media and really appreciated your honesty and heartfelt messages and truly admired the efforts you have made to make this a better world for all. Keep you chin up, you’re doing great things. Thank you. xx

l think the truth is coming out in the rc this week. after those who called for it are now crack'n the shits about it, being 'interrogated' apparently!! l think they thought it would be a walk in the part, but now the bears have appeared (questions with teeth) they have lost it. rivkin must have complained in the media and it's got back to the commissioner (?) and palestine counsel rep got hate emails and she's called it out!! they are even asking for the commissioner to get the arse!!

Is upscrolled an option? apparently it is catching on!

It is but I really found it clunky when I tried months ago. And I now get lots of creepy dudes messaging me which puts me off.

Thanks for your voice! Many more Jewish-Israelis voices like yours are needed

Uplifting, I wish many more members of the Zionist Jewish communities in Australia were less arrogant, entitled and manipulative, then any β€œantisemitism β€œ would cease to exist. The world doesn’t have a problem with Jewish people as they are very well aware, the world hates arseholes who like to murder and plunder lands.

I want to share this page but the title is appropriate for the email that sent me here, not for the web page.

I don't understand what you mean.

Sorry. Maybe it's only displaying like that for me, but the original (tik tok) page had title "Me reading my submission to Royal Commission" and then I got your email saying you had a tik tok free version. This is the page I'm on, and the title displayed is "for those of you who can't (or wont) access tiktok". My point was that there was no need to change the title as the original described the page and the new did not.

Now I'm embarrassed to have polluted the important content with trivia, so if you have the means to delete this whole thread, that would be wonderful!
