I find it ironic that western leftists demand israelis leave israel because we're all white colonizers in their eyes (regardless of the fact that even if jews really weren't indigenous to the levant, which we are, over half the population is middle eastern anyway), but when we do leave israel for other countries we get hatecrimed. it would be bad enough if we had people telling us "good on you for going back to where you came from" or some shit but no they really just view us as inherently irredeemable and evil no matter where we are. almost feels like they're trying to lure us into being harassed overseas.

#before the war started i was planning to move to canada when i get older #now i'm terrified to fly to any other country for any reason whatsoever #a bit unrelated but i wanna vent that when the starkid innit concert was announced #i was like “omg finally a starkid thing i can go to britain is way closer to israel than the usa”#but then realised i'd have to deal with seeing antisemitic shit all over the place #and knowing my ass i wouldn't be able to lie about where i'm from when asked #leftist antisemitism #antisemitism #israel #jumblr #hila has spoken
