this-is-not-jewish:thearcanetheory:coffeejewess:imnotwhite-imjewish:made rebloggableThanks for doing this, because I read this shit and I literally saw red. And, frankly, I’m too damn ill at the moment to be nice about it. I’m too nice to explain why this person needs to think twice before they act like this. So you know what?Head up, @imnotwhite-imjewish because @lysergiclacedeyes is a seriously antisemitic piece of shit. A gutter trollop. Who thinks it’s socially acceptable to bully a seventeen year old girl about how she chooses to identify, and for choosing to run a Jewish blog to vent about the proliferation of antisemites on tumblr. For expressing that those of us who have lost family in the Holocaust don’t find tasteless jokes to be funny. But we’re just supposed to put on our big boy and girl pants and laugh at the fact that perhaps our relatives were brutally experimented on or systematically murdered. Would we say that sort of shit to people who have had members of their families murdered brutally outside of genocide? Fuck no, but this is yet another problem with Holocaust education. We just teach it as a distant memory, vague and intangible. Which makes those who have no connects to it have no qualms mocking those who do, because they’re looking it through a completely different - clouded - lens. Read a goddamn book, please.I also take serious offense to anyone who says that you can’t take anything from Judaism outside of religiously, but this also sounds like the wailing of the young and ignorant. Particularly those who fail to realize that Judaism is a broad set of tribal communities that are only loosely knitted via our religious beliefs. We are raised speaking Jewish languages, learning Jewish history, and assimilating in our own culture that we are Jews. In the same sense that a expat Frenchmen in Turkey would still be a cultural and ethnic Frenchman. His racial makeup is irrelevant: his cultural attachments are not. For the Jewish community, what’s in our blood is also part of our impact. We are for OUR COMMUNITY first and foremost. We have been trained to be this way PEOPLE LIKE THIS who drive us into isolation amongst ourselves throughout our history. We were are not for ourselves or our community, then what are we? Who are we for? I would much rather be a Jew than someone who feels they’re so ~tough~ and ~adult~ that they would feel the need to bully children for how they chose to identify. For faulting them for following a religion and a culture they were BORN INTO and decided was right for them.And then tries to be all ~turn the other cheek~ which is a fucking Christian thing. I don’t know what she’s been reading but Jews are pretty much encouraged and told to call out bullshit like what this idiot has been saying to you. And like hell if I want that changed. “[She] can be nice,” my fucking ass. That’s the war cry of bigots and hateful people everywhere. Who never get anywhere in life because they ability to see beyond themselves and their own over-glorified opinions no one else in the world gives a shit about. I’m glad that she doesn’t feel bad about being an awful human being, because she’s currently winning the gold in my book. WOW the ignorant identity policing and erasure here! Yes, I know LITERALLY NOTHING about your 4000 year old culture, identity, and ethnic group, or the oppression you face, so let me demonstrate my ignorance by bullying you! So much fucking hate. OP totally has the right to report them for harassment (not that Tumblr DOES ANYTHING about protecting its users at all!)Also, much hate directed towards the whiteness comments directed at the OP, insisting that the LONG-STANDING 4 MILLENIA OLD INDIGENOUS ETHNIC IDENTITY of the Jewish people means fuck-all because WHITE. What racist claptrap! And just because US racial forms don’t recognize ethnic realities all of a sudden means it doesn’t exist? Fucking please. (I, for one, would NEVER write down “white” when I had the chance to pick “Other.” If able, I would fill in “Semitic” most often, sometimes “Jewish” whilst my friend (also white-skinned, and with reddish hair, Persian Jewish) writes down “Afro-Asiatic” as a matter of course.)HOW JEWS CHOOSE TO INTERACT WITH THEIR ETHNIC IDENTITY IS NOT YOUR FUCKING PROBLEM.Nor is it up to you to engage in erasure.Also, coffeejewess, your rage is perfect and good. It feeds my soul.I have nothing to add to any of this, except I hope that this chutzpahdik piece of shit lysergiclacedeyes wakes up tomorrow morning to find her entire bedroom floor littered with Barbie shoes—and that she steps on every single one.hope she steps on barbie shoes AND legoswhat a piece of shit person though, and a reminder why i rarely go on the jewish tags unless i want to end up feeling a weird combination of numbness/complete fury for most of the night -- source link
