Big same!

And I will not accept people trying to police my Jewishness based on my practices nor my politics. During the Holocaust I would have been rounded up like everyone else because of my ethnicity regardless of my opinions.

people like their little boxes…when you defy their limited perspective, it’s traumatic for their little frontal lobes…

Thank you for continuing to speak out against human rights violations. There is very real and sickening antisemitism in America. But it’s much less antisemitic to be Jewish and fight genocide than to say that Jews should all, as a monolith, support genocide.

Thank you so much for this. A large percentage of the people in the anti-genocide activist groups I work with are Jewish. I know this sometimes means that they have strained relationships with their families, but I’m so impressed by their courage.

As an Arab-American, I have been called antisemitic many times by Zionists, both Jewish and non-Jewish. I ignore it. I take it that anyone who says that is an anti-Arab racist. I’m sorry you experienced this treatment. I see you and I respect your epic courage.

My grandfather (b. 1926) left Tel Aviv in ‘48 cause they started moving his Arab friends and neighbors away; he asked himself “how is this different from what was done to my mother in Ukraine in the 1890s or to my cousins in Krakow in 1939/40?” He answered: “it fundamentally isn’t.”

This makes me so mad cause like you post a lot of positive shit about Judaism and being Jewish. You're so clearly not an anti-semite
