if your Jewish friends aren't talking to you about anything that's happening right now, it's because they know that at its core your take is probably rooted in greedy-grasping-jew stereotypes with a hefty helping of i-don't-mean-you-of-course. And they're doing both of you the favor of pretending it isn't.
#or the slightly more active version which is be-a-good-jew-for-me#but in that case they probably demanded your position on Israel/Palestine the moment they knew you were Jewish#because frankly most people conflate Israeli people with Israeli government with All Jews Everywhere Past And Present and it is wild#my favorite ice cold take from the past week: jews are just like the puritans who killed Indigenous people for land#actually maybe my favorite is that it doesn't matter that jews are the Indigenous people of this region because it's been invaded like 3x#their estimate not mine#now it's not their indigenous land it's their ancestral homeland which i guess we don't care about?#that's especially confusing because if they're arguing that it also became the muslim ancestral homeland why would we only care about that#i feel like i should do a gallery of Worst Takes of the Week#sure i probably shouldn't but also fuuuuuuuuuuck#wall of words
