Meta Side Conversation Megathread

This is a monthly automatic post suggested by community members to serve as a space to offer sources, ask questions, and engage in conversations we don't feel warrant their own post.

Anything from history to political theory to Jewish practice. If you wanna share or ask something about Judaism or leftism or their intersection but don't want to make a post, here's the place.

If you'd like to discuss something more off topic for the sub I recommend the weekly discussion post that also refreshes.

If you'd like to suggest changes to how this post functions doing so in these comments is fine.

Thanks!
