I hate how anti-semetic people are and how they refuse to believe it. Judaism isn't just a religion its a race of people, a cultural and ethnic group. It has its own language and clothing and food. I got told that I don't belong because I'm ethnically and religiously Jewish. I was given drawings of swatstikas in middle school from uneducated kids my age because the education system doesn't teach about what the Jewish people had to go through and what they still experience. The last Jewish man was chased out of Afghanistan after US pulled it troops out, all of the synagogues were destroyed. 8 people were murdered at a synagogue in this country recently. Bomb threats and painted swastikas are all over this continent but people refuse to make a change.
          "Its not racism"
          "Its not anti-semitism"
          Then what is it? And don't bring up that bullshit "white people can't experience racism" yes they can. Systemic racism that black people face is completely different than racism in general. Racism in its dictionary definition is discrimination against someone or a group of people for their race/ethnic presentation. I am a white passing Jewish woman and have been told to kill myself by a black person because of my skin tone. How is that not racism? How is that not discrimination? Because black people were slaves? Jews were slaves before black people thousands of years ago in Egypt, Jews built the pyramids, Jews were subject to torture AGAIN in the holocaust. I'm so tired of this double standard that only black people can experience discrimination and stereotyping. Racism is racism.
