We have to continue

It doesn't make sense to just wonder, what would Ronald and Suzette have done? and ...do nothing ourselves. That's like getting good advice, and not following up on it.

So we created a page about October 7th 2023. Since the atrocities on October 7, there is an online global battlefield, spreading antisemitic content like wildfire. We see fake news, denial, conspiracy theories, hate-mongering, celebration of violence, inciting content and dehumanization of groups of people.

We need to address this. The Magenta page about October 7th 2023 contains a list of more than 100 links to October 7 Witness Reports, to Reports of (by far the largest amount) escalating antisemitism and (other) hatred and a section of links to background and future. Ofcourse it is not complete. Far from. The situation is very complex and so is any possible solution.

To lighten things up a bit, there is a Ro & Suz Cartoon and a memory.
