Wasn't easy to write this piece but I'm glad I did. I support free speech and people's rights to speak their mind here, as long as it stays respectful. It saddens me when people who have followed my writing for a long time unsubscribe because of this piece. We have lost the ability to listen to one another. I'm really glad I wrote this. …
Wasn't easy to write this piece but I'm glad I did. I support free speech and people's rights to speak their mind here, as long as it stays respectful. It saddens me when people who have followed my writing for a long time unsubscribe because of this piece. We have lost the ability to listen to one another. I'm really glad I wrote this. Very interesting to see what is rising to the surface now. I fear for Jews all over the world.
I'm glad you wrote it, too. I'm thinking thru this just as you (and many other Christians) are. I have to be careful, my emotions are stronger than my reason so often. Your thoughts help me greatly, so thanks.
So, you've been cancelled on Twitter, now you're losing subs. Keep it up!
Very respectfully, I think your fear for the Jews, shared by many, is for others fear for the Palestinians. According to life experiences or what one has read etc, people are expressing the same reaction of fear but for different people. Your fear may be well-founded, yet so is the fear of those more concerned about the Palestinians. I think for me it is the taking of sides to the point of using these fears to justify further acts of violence that switches me off from some commentators' reactions at the moment. I also hear a sense of self-righteousness, of yourself seeing more clearly and being a better person than others, in your writing, which is of course common to many of us, but it's there and makes it hard for me to keep reading you, Karen. I'm maybe not expressing it well, or maybe I'm coming across as disrespectful - I am however attempting to clarify why I felt a deep unease reading this essay. I think experience your authenticity, integrity and passion, as always, and I also experience a bias that sits uncomfortably with me. I don't want you to feel frustrated or take offence - I guess I just want to give honest feedback.
