@Ulrich_the_elder@thecanadian.social @DGI@graeber.social Michael Chabon used this exact question as a plot element in THE YIDDISH POLICEMAN'S UNION. Only some flunky in the FDR admin allowed that ship filled with Jewish refugees to land in Sitka Alaska and BANG!, it's the land of the Frozen Chosen.

@mvilain@sfba.social @DGI@graeber.social It is a reasonable question to ask especially now that netenyahu is acting like hitler.

@mvilain@sfba.social @Ulrich_the_elder@thecanadian.social @DGI@graeber.social Michael Chabon is a genius. *The Yiddish Policeman’s Union* is the funniest Jewish humor since *The Tsaddik of the Seven Wonders* by Isidore Haiblum. You don’t have to be Jewish to get the jokes. I’m a life long goy boy, and I laughed till my ribs hurt. Read it today. You’ll be glad you did.
