[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I always feel like this. Part of it is being Jewish - this season is really all about Christmas and Hanukah is often an afterthought.

But since 2023, nobody wants to acknowledge any jewish holidays because they worry people will think it means they're pro killing Palestinians.

Yesterday I was going to drop off Hanukah gifts across the city, and had to take an Uber because I didn't feel safe being on mass transit with two bags full of Hanukah wrapping paper. Last night I was going to a Vodka and Latke party and wanted to wear my jewish star, and had to try on a bunch of sweaters to find one that covered the star while I was on the train. It sucks. It sucks I have to think this way, and that I'm the fourth generation in my family dealing with discrimination because of our religion. [/quote]

OP here. I'm truly sorry for all of this. I've tried typing a response and it all sounds so trite. I'm just sorry. I wish no one had to be afraid because of their religion (or any other reason). I hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday. [/quote]

I agree with OP.  I’m sorry as well.  My brother in law is Jewish and I’m so glad we have one of God’s Chosen People in my family🕍🕎✡️[/quote]
