[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have no horse in this race as I am white (female) but it’s interesting to watch how Jewish threads pop up here after every significant conversation about race. I remember one after the BLM events. And then someone mentioned whataboutism. Makes me wonder. [/quote]

We get it. You’ll always pat us on the head and say “not your time.”

Meanwhile, we’ve been dealing with rising anti-Semitism for years and haven’t been included in the left’s approved minority groups for allyship.

Im sorry but i just don think that is true- there are a few antisemites on here that maybe are making you feel that way.  I am Muslim and  know that antisemitic beliefs are everywhere and teh appropriation of teh term semitic to refer to only one part of the semite family is risable  even from me though i try my hardest to fight against bigotry and antisemitism. Jewish people are being targeted and there has always been an indifferent eto their suffering and that has to stop. Whatever outrage has been perpetrated against a minority group this week, we have to remain vigilant against teh smaller acts of ignorance and othering that occur around us all the time and speak up because not doing so perpetuates white supremacy and jewish people are white the way arabs are- its a conditional sort of whiteness that sometimes protects and sometimes doenst against discrimination and harrasment.  There is a long history of indifferent eto jewish suffering plus ignorance. I personally dont really like inhan omar but i do admire that she wears a hijab, if only her personal conduct wa sin line with said hijab, her comments are born of ignorance and fostered by malice. Maybe the malice is not her own but these lies about jewish control of banks, media, space laser. . its all part and parcel and  it is born of malice and it is antisemitic, pograms and death camps are the violent extreme, it is not the common disease.  People point out that Black americans have ben here since before ether founding, Asians have been here since before the civil war, well jewish people have been living in europe since before the literal year 1!   We should all feel outrage at all times that any minority group in America is literally just waiting for an atrocity to happen at anytime, that none of us are safe from hatred, from missed opportunities due to bias, from having slur thrown at us, from a physical attack on one of our own. The right is taking voting rights away in a way that will affect all marginalized people and communities and  that includes orthodox and hasidic groups and asians.  The way they are doing it effects us all and once you are disenfranchised, everything can be taken away.  Religious minorities everywhere were furious at Hilary Clinton when she refused to recognize that a sanders presidency would be shattering a thicker glass ceiling than hers.  We are well aware of antisemitism on the left side of politics and it is not swastika bearing like it s on the right. Its there on both side but one side is much more dangerous, and its not the woke police. [/quote]
