Notes On Bondi Beach And Free Speech (Caitlin's Newsletter, 2025-12-22)

The dumbest thing we are being asked to believe today is that pro-Palestinian protests caused the Bondi shooting. It’s self-evidently moronic. No one sincerely believes it. They’re just pretending to believe it to get protests banned and criticism of Israel outlawed.

Nobody actually believes “globalize the intifada” means “kill all Jews”. They’re just pretending to believe that to promote the interests of a genocidal apartheid state.

Fifteen people getting killed at Bondi Beach doesn’t magically make genocide and apartheid okay, and it doesn’t magically make it okay to support those things. Supporting Israel was evil the day before the shooting, and it remained evil the day after. None of that changed.
