Honestly, A Lot Of The Left-wing Erasure Of Jewish Ethnicity By Considering All Jews To Be White People

Honestly, a lot of the left-wing erasure of Jewish ethnicity by considering all Jews to be white people like all the other white Europeans, except possibly even *more* white and privileged, strikes me as being less psychologically about intentionally excluding Jews and more about, like, not having to deal with the logical fallout of the consequences of structural antisemitism.

Because here's the thing: if you acknowledge that structural antisemitism exists, you then have to support efforts to undo structural antisemitism and consider the fallout of historical antisemitism.

If you contain it to one tragic event (no matter how huge) and also minimize it (because it's not the only genocide, have you considered __?) and universalize it (this teaches us about the inhumanity of people towards those who are *different*) and atomize it (people can be so weird about Jews and Judaism, they must really be an unusually hateful person)

Then you don't have to consider things like "hey are we still benefitting from structural antisemitism today?" and "are Jews still dealing with the consequences of structural antisemitism?" and "are our politics contributing to ongoing antisemitism, including structural antisemitism even now?"

Sparkle on Worms-Day!! Have fun and be yourself!11! 💙

I wanna feel safe on here but honestly the silence is deafening. Jews are the only people that advocacy stops for, who are dehumanised and horrific unspeakable acts carried out on them where people then try and justify those actions. Don't you dare say it's not antisemitism, just antizionism, when people have been justifying and or celebrating the murder/rape/kidnapping/parading of bodies of civilians. Don't you dare say it's not antisemitism when Jews in the rest of the world have been told to remain vigilant and require extra police and security. There aren't conditions attached to human rights, except apparently when it comes to Jews. Jewish lives can be senselessly ended, their bodies defiled and someone will still say BUT it's ok because XYZ. If you can't talk about the murder and atrocities being carried out right now without adding a but or if you speak up for everyone except Jews, unfollow me, block me.

May their memories be a blessing.
