F*ck Hope
One thing that irks me (there are many) about relationships, is when couples are congratulated on being together for a long time.
As in, yes, that's a wonderful achievement... IF IT'S A HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP.
But just staying married because you feel obligated, when the dynamic is toxic...
Yeah nah.
No one should be congratulated on that.
And do you know which couple I wish would call it quits?
It's a couple who are seriously toxic AF.
And they've been married for 78 years today 🤦🏼♀️
But in her defence...
she thought that he was rescuing her out of a really horrible situation.
Little did she know that he would spend the next eight decades destroying her reputation and committing crimes in her name.
The couple I'm talking about are of course the infamous Mr & Mrs Zi0nism-Judaism.
If only Judaism would have listened to those that tried to warn her.
But of course, that would be victim blaming.
It's Zi0nism that should take full responsibility for what he has done to Judaism.
That will never happen.
Zi0nism is the master manipulator who gaslights everyone who he sucks into his orbit.
What's especially disingenuous, is how he's taken on his wife's religious identity while maintaining a secular lifestyle.
It means he seduces people of faith by co-opting their terminology and sacred symbols while mocking their values and beliefs as he hides behind his wife's religion.
Judaism feels too indebted to her abusive partner to leave.
Their lives are too intertwined.
And of course Zi0nism continues to remind Judaism that she'll never survive without him.
Like any wife leaving a domestic violence situation, there's going to be some very confronting truths of what she participated in while being in the abusive relationship. Especially when the relationship is as long as this, it's very hard to see which behaviour is caused by which partner.
I'd like to think their divorce is imminent...but that is a false hope.
And as they say in crisis therapy to women in domestic violence relationships:
F*ck hope.
Because hope places the onus on something or someone else.
Instead of placing the responsibility on ourselves.
And that's exactly what Judaism needs to do.
Leave the f*cking b*stard.
Accept that she's strong enough on her own.
And that there are so many of us ready to support her once she makes her escape.

I'm sharing a photo of the last couple I met that have been in a monogamous relationship for over forty years.
To be fair, I don't know if it's healthy or not. For all I know she's ready to fly off and he's clipped her wings.


Fuck hope? I am not a religious person, but envied people who had faith, because in a dire situation, they had hope, whereas I had nothing to keep me thinking positively. But I certainly do agree with you Veronica, time for that pair to divorce! As an Australian I’m getting fed up with our government pandering to a small group, whose patriotism is definitely not Australia First. I do love the people in the Jewish council of Australia- and my Jewish friends. They aren’t able to get a word in sideways it seems.
This divorce is so long overdue! I am so sick of Israel being equated to Judaism and visa versa.
