mosellegreen: harley-hamakabi: phanibal-lester: fromchaostocosmos: vermiciousyid: fenrisesque: budgie: “Would you hide me?” shudder, but a must read. hasn’t everyone been using this for ages? My standard had previously been “Would you fail to report me?” but I’ve definitely moved to this stricter standard over the last few months. I’ve been doing this for years now. Non-Rroma goyim don’t understand that for Jews it has never been a matter of If but rather When. We know deep down we are never safe and we know that even those who call us friends may be the very ones to kill us. That is what our history has shown. I can think of 3 goyim that I could trust not just to have my back but to hide me and not turn me in. I know way more then 3 people though. why is the hell would you NOT hide someone??? if they are in danger, hide them!!! protect them!! wtf???? so far I’ve noticed at least two people reblog this with this kind of shocked reaction, but y’all realize there is a REASON we’re asking this, right? Because this is exactly what happened before, Jewish people were turned in by their gentile friends and neighbors to the authorities during the Holocaust. They were betrayed by people they thought they could trust. By people they knew for YEARS. There is a REASON to ask, would you hide me? Because we don’t know that you will. We don’t know that you won’t betray us like happened to those before us. 13 years ago when I was studying for my conversion to Judaism, I read a book, I think by Dennis Prager, that described a cocktail party where several Jews started just casually discussing how many (if any) Gentiles they knew who they might trust to hide their children if a Nazi regime suddenly came to pass. A cocktail party. In New York. In my lifetime. The author was perceptive enough to realize that the fact that this question was seriously asked and answered was actually a lot more significant than the individual answers. (And yes, Jews frequently will discuss things like watching their mother bleed to death after giving birth on the floor of a Romani caravan during WWII and where in town you can buy the best cupcakes in the same conversation. Actual conversation I was in at my first synagogue.) -- source link
