ד-פּאַקסWherein Jewish Voice for Peace (<a href="https://babka.social/tags/JVP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JVP</a>) demonstrates once again that they're fucking gross."A petition made the rounds in the past two weeks to stop a training about <a href="https://babka.social/tags/antisemitism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#antisemitism</a> from taking place at <a href="https://babka.social/tags/Northampton" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Northampton</a> High School.
