I’m Jewish and I just started working at fast food. Happy Labor Day ppl!

Sad that the culture that made these songs effectively no longer exists

[@falconeshield]

Yes it does

[@deucedwayne]

It exists, but not in its golden age, that's for sure

Yiddishkeit and Yiddish enthusiasts are making a revival. And there's always YIVO as well.

[@AvrahamYairStern]

Bundism was at one point the largest Jewish movement, they aimed for Autoëmancipation of Jews in Europe. When they realized that they were hated there, the movement broke down and they realized the only way to turn was to Zionism, the other large Jewish movement at the time

[@Us3r_2005]

Zionism was initially split between those allying with Britain and those allying with the Stalinist Soviet Union who wanted to also establish a communist Jewish state

[@revanofkorriban1505]

Bundism didn't fail because their goals were impossible. They were just unlucky enough for the Nazis to come in and kill them all. After all, it's worth noting that Zionists worked with the antisemitic Polish Sanation regime that wanted to get rid of the Polish Jews by sending them to Palestine. That was the so-called solution to European antisemitism.

[@TheZerech]

Bundism's popularity I think has been overstated, in Ukraine when the Jewish communities held elections in 1917, Poalei Zion and the religious party got more than the other non-Zionist parties, not all of which were Bundist, that includes the Folkspartei and Fareynikte.

[@esthersteier6840]

@@TheZerechrelative to the Jewish groups it was probably very big Especially in America

[@revanofkorriban1505]

That's a triumphalist interpretation that doesn't line up with history. Bundism was destroyed by the Nazis, not the realization that antisemitism exists in Europe.

Hi, great song. When was it written?

[@deucedwayne]

As much as I would dig out the information about it, all I could find is that it was composed in late XIX - early XX centuries, and the earliest recordings are from the 1912. That's, unfortunately, all that I could tell you for now.

Yes, and when they realized they were wrong about Zionism it was already too late

Yes.

Yes, some of them, some even before and during the suggestion of Israel as a safe haven of jews. Furthermore, anti - Zionism was always a part of Jewish ideology.

Blaming the Tsar himself (a literal Orthodox saint, who meekly didnt even want the throne and was simple/loving) for the corruption of the gov was as foolish as Americans blaming the ineffectual King George III (even as figurehead) when the real problem was Parliament.

[@seronymus]

@@Zion_48you're going off memes and hearsay and haven't studied the subject then, notice also I specifically was writing about the martyred Tsar Nicholas II not his ancestors. If anything the Romanov household tried to stop pogroms by the ignorant peasantry and some corrupt officers.

[@Zion_48]

@seronymus sure man,and this is why little Nicholas didn't say nothing when mass progroms across all of Russia happend during his rule. Why did many Jews join the red army and almost none the white army?
