Animals 


A civet, often called a civet cat, is actually a separate kind of animal, not part of either the cat or the weasel family. Several different species are found in different parts of Asia and Africa. They are kept as livestock since their body secretions are used in perfumery, since some people like drinking coffee made from beans incompletely digested by the civet, and since some people eat their meat (but their meat has been known to carry a COVID-like virus infection to humans). They don't seem to become good pets, though people have tried keeping them as pets and said they required a lot of "patience and understanding." Only about the size of a cat, preodminantly carnivores that eat some plant material, civets don't usually attack humans...but here's what can happen if they feel cornered.


Censorship 

This tweet suggests that clamor for censorship has come from Jews worried about hate on Twitter. I hope not. Censorship is a very hateful thing. Anyone calling for censorship is going to be, if not really hated, certainly blamed, by all rightminded people. Jewish Americans need, therefore, to denounce and reject all forms of censorship and nannyism.
