ANNOUNCMENT 📢 Hello and Welcome!
Welcome one and all to r/jewishpolitics, a place for Jews to talk politics! This sub was created for two reasons:
Like many of you, our experience with most other political spaces on reddit have ended up with us being either excluded or tokenized. This is a place for us to talk politics where we can speak as Jews without speaking for Jews.
Politics can be an exhausting topic and we should have safe spaces to be Jewish on reddit without any political requirements. The mod team here is (for the most part) also moderating r/Jewish. So, our goal is to leave some of the divisive political talk out of that sub (and perhaps others) so it can continue to serve all kinds of Jews. Creating a separate sub for politics allows us to fine-tune the rules here to be more conducive for political discussions. This is a work in progress, so expect us to take your feedback and make adjustments as we move forward.
This space is explicitly open to all kinds of political discussion, as long as the rules in the sidebar are followed. Assuming good faith and using civil language are the foundation of productive discussion among those who disagree on politics.
We expect most discussion to be focused on US and Israeli politics, but any political topic that impacts Jews is allowed.
Feel free to leave a message with any suggestions or feedback, and thanks for reading. And again, welcome to r/jewishpolitics!

Really hoping that New Yorkers start looking into what a great AG Komatireddy would be. It would help having a legal system that doesn’t give endless cashless bail and minimal sentencing for repeat criminals.

Discussion 💬 What Black voters can teach Michigan Jews about Abdul El-Sayed
I found this piece informative about the history of Black political choices. But I'm concerned it glosses over a big difference. From the piece, it sounds like the anti-Black positions of past Democrats were born out of political calculations or indifference. But El-Sayed, and e.g. Mamdani, are deeply ideologically committed to their anti-Jew positions.
What do you all think? Is this a relevant factor in our calculations of what's better for us overall?

Question ❓ What is Zionism?
Can someone please kindly explain the difference (if any) between modern day Zionism and Zion in the Torah?
I’m new to the subject and need clarification so I don’t say the wrong thing in real life conversation, and actually properly convey what I’m trying to express without sounding like I’m taking out of my ass.
Anything is appreciated!
