#judaism and whiteness are not entirely clean cut#i certainly benefit from white privilege. many jews who lived in america before wwii benefited from the gi bill in a way black people didnt#(my family didn't live here before wwii but that's an example)#i am functionally white in the usa - in the eyes of the average american.#but to those to whom whiteness matters? i am not white to them.#and simultaneously there is a pressure on the left to paint jews as the epitome of whiteness#despite the fact whiteness is a power structure which at its 'truest' - excludes us#so we're left a little bit stranded. schrodingers cat of identity. via @emmynoethers
Yeah, this sums it up pretty well. Whether or not Jews count as white to someone (who likely ignores jewish poc unless it's to tokenize them) is based entirely on what benefits them and their argument. Schrodinger's white person lmao
i never wanna hear goyim talk abt jewish origin, ethnicity, etc ever again none of you know how to behave
