The whole thread rages pretty hard from the OP lmao:

I am f*cking tired of constantly needing to check if everyone I interact with hates Jews

I'm Jewish, Zionist, live in NYC, but not very active in Jewish circles (mostly bc I have social anxiety, imposter syndrome, and yes, I should find a therapist)

I am constantly vetting every event I attend, and every date I may potentially go on. I am tired of being surprised by someone's IG post about the "brave students" in the encampments, after they had the gall to come to my Hannukah party. I am tired of checking with my newly engaged friend about the guest list of their wedding. I am tired of wanting to go on a camping trip with my friends, but since I have not personally asked every single person about their stance on Israel I don't know if it will be a safe space. I am tired of watching in apprehension when people look at my Magen David. I am tired of being excited about a friend coming to visit, and wondering if I should ask them about their views now, or wait till I see them in person. I am tired of assuming everyone is a latent anti-Semite who is just hiding their views from me. I am tired of needing to explain why Jews have a right to exist and a right to a homeland.

Edit:

Thank you everyone for your posts! It is helpful (but depressing) to hear that other people are struggling the same way. I don't think my non-Jewish friends understand how I am feeling at all.

and to the person that thinks I have ADHD, and to the pathetic, repetitive, anti-Semitic incel from the UK who is obsessed with BeckiJones and slipped into my DMs - go f*ck yourself.

    Another one talked about how dissapointed they were that they spent a ton of money to get tickets to a Green Day show. lmao, imagine thinking any quasi-punk band would be pro-zionist.

      Billy Joe Armstrong once said "cops are part of the 99%" while opposing blm abolish the police protests so it wouldn't have surprised me
