my mom is a jew from kiev, she thinks that russians and ukrainians have always been friends, that russia has always treated ukrainians well.

.... Turtle island or the Ukraine, just because of my blood. Ukrainians get to genocide and rule over others and be viewed as victims by most of the left that isn't pro putin, and Jews are expected by all the left to just take the abuse.

... Crimes. And, my other choices besides that low status in Eastern Europe was my parents moving either to the USA or Israel, Israel was choosen because USA closed it's easy gates before my parents could move in. I don't feel like apologizing for my existence and language, wether in Canaan or...

Jews existed before the monotheistic YHWH religion called Judaism. Judaism is the tribal religion of the Jewish people, like what the Māori and other indigenous peoples have. But being Māori isn't only about the tribal religion. And if my parents had stayed in Kiev, i wouldn't want to bother...

... Learning capabilities), and venerate people who have persecuted my people.

Jewish assimilation hasn't worked in the Holocaust and pogroms and any other times people have targted peoples for having Jewish blood.

So, if my parents had stayed in Kiev, mr supporting ukriane would have been a form of internalized abuse, because I'd support a state and people which persecute the language i would have used there, Russia, (i wouldn't have learned ukrainian because of what Doctors thought about autists' language...

Why?
December 12, 2025 at 4:45 AM
=> Ukraine, Poland and Arab countries are based on body politicization.

If my parents had stayed in Kiev, i would want to not be ruled by either Ukrainians or Russians.

Jews had good reasons to want the red Russians to conquer many countries in Eastern Europe, they were the least antisemitic.

Politicization of the body is the basis for every LGBTQ identity and national/ethnic/racial identity. And religious community is many times determined based on decent & religion is at least many times a determining factor in who's part of a nation/ethnicity. =>

What does it matter that ethnicity is a social construct?
November 20, 2025 at 4:43 AM
How's ethnicity only tangentially related to the question at hand?
November 20, 2025 at 4:43 AM
Much like not all Koreans follow Korean native religion, so is the case that not all Jews follow the Jewish native religion.

My family don't follow the brit. They still got persecuted as Jews by the USSR and the Nazis, so there's that, that's that, end of pasuk, the book is sealed.
November 20, 2025 at 4:42 AM
Who's "they", and what "they" don't get to decide?

Jews are also an ethnicity. Like Koreans. Like Koreans, jews have a native religion, but like how not all Koreans follow Korean native religion, so do not all jews follow Judaism.

to Jews who don't follow Judaism, it's laws don't apply.

i know a anti zionist living in palestine who identifies as hebrew who's a Baháʼí.
November 19, 2025 at 5:13 AM
=> or do you prefer to call this race or ethnicity Ivri (hebrew)?

like how not all Japanese people or han chinese people or koreans follow their respective native religions, the same is true for Ivris (hebrews)
November 19, 2025 at 5:11 AM
If my family don't regard the mikra as an authority, how can they do idolitry?

they are jews via ethnicity. becuase they are not ukrainians or russians or poles or anyone else there.

jewishness is being treated by many antisemites as a race, like Blackness. Jew is also a social race, like Black.=>
November 19, 2025 at 5:11 AM
Non of us choose to be of Jewish ancestry. We can't do anything at least for now about antisemitism, but we can choose if to follow Judaism, and if so, how.

There are plenty of reform zionists to give my secular Jewish family the version of Judaism that agrees with their values.
November 18, 2025 at 6:34 AM
I meant to say that My family aren't followers of Judaism, and so can't do idolatry against it.

Much like how non Christians can't do idolatry against Christianity.

Judaism is part of their heritage much like Greek native religion is for Greeks who don't follow it.
November 18, 2025 at 6:29 AM
What's that got to do with the above post?
November 18, 2025 at 6:27 AM
The USSR and the Nazis and the ukrainian nationalists and all other antisemites don't care if those with Jewish blood observe Judaism.

Saying that my family did idolatry against Judaism is like saying we're doing idolatry against Christianity.

A miniscule amount of Jews remaining Poland after the Holocaust. A miniscule of that miniscule remained in Poland after 1968.
November 17, 2025 at 2:25 PM
What do you mean?

For my parents and grandparents who chooses to move to Israel, the mikra wasn't an authority for them.

They don't keep Kashrut, does that live and the one that passed away, their sense of Jewishness is like the sense of Ukrainianess for Ukrainians, Estonianess for Estonians, etc.
