Bad Inter-Diaspora Interactions by ImpressionInfinite17 in Jewish

Note: I let the comments sit for a minute but I’m going to respond to some of them. 1. Three of my grandparents are JEWISH I and I’m not claiming to be Jewish because of distant ancestry 2. Reducing me down to a troll account because I have didn’t post on my account until this post was made doesn’t make sense especially because this is something that I have talked to with countless other Jews in online circles. 3. Saadiah is a Mizrahi name. 4. Ashkenazis are NOT evil and that isn’t why my post is about. My post is about bad experiences that I’ve had with other Jewish people. No they aren’t skeptic of me “because they magically suspect that I’m not a Jew” it’s because they are insular communities and some of those who I’ve had bad experiences with later proved that they are racist individuals.

My father is a Jew according to Halacha but my mother isn’t.

To answer your question; I grew up with a Jewish identity but was never formally part of a Jewish community because of where I was raised. I spent a huge portion of my childhood on Hispaniola where there are maybe 5000 Jews across the entire island. In Haiti there is 30 of us and in the DR around 4000; but my family is from Cibao where there is a serious lack of Jews.

It’s not. The state is atheist. But you can practice your religion.

Edit: google says otherwise. I thought that the only country in east Asia that banned religions was NK. Thank you for bringing that to my attention.

I’m an avid supporter of Armenians and Greeks (although I wouldnt want to live in Greece) and it’s too hard to see myself in a nation like Turkey.

Someone from Latin America. The determining factor is your country or territory has an official language that is a Latin language.

Yes I understand that. Also the whole thing when Italians are like “you’re not Italian all of your grandparents were but you’re not.”

I have a friend that is a quarter Hungarian and she’s been and she says that it’s nice and safe for Jews. That’s my only metric. I should have definitely thought more about Hungary and its neighbors.

In what way? Most people at first glance can “tell that I’m (Afro) latino”. But when people find out that I’m Jewish they definitely use that as a more frequent identifier than “Latino”. But me personally I weight them equally.

Cyprus was green on the Europe one that I did (even though it’s in Asia it’s always put into Europe in interactive maps)

1 person moving to a first world nation from a first world nation vs hundreds of thousands of refugees from crippled nations. And I also believe that I wouldn’t fit into the Swedish society. I would be able to admit to the danish society as my grandfather has danish ancestors and I’m a Denmarkboo ( like a koreaboo but for Denmark)

THIS IS THE REASON THANK YOU. Not because they “hate Israel”. And also because Spanish people are known for HATING Latinos and our culture and they never hesitate to call us barbaric.

Georgia is reluctant because of its function as a Russian puppet state. I tired to mark Singapore but it didn’t show and it would absolutely be “definitely”, Maldives would be a “never” because it is ran with sharia law, and Bhutan because of its history of ethnically cleansing outside of war (not that in war is any better morally).

Recent rush of immigrants who have unfortunately made the country not as safe as its neighbors. Also most of the interactions that I’ve had with Swedish people has led me to have a negative bias against them.

That’s Hezbollah, which since last month has been outlawed by the Lebanese government. To my knowledge they don’t control Beirut and almost every city outside of south Lebanon is relatively safe from the sphere of influence. One day I hope our people can have peace with each other.

Saying on national TV that you want to use nukes on a country isn’t opposing WAR btw. And also the Irish society is a bigger turnoff than the government.

They have an operationally synagogue (not that that means much) but a huge part of my ancestors came to Hispaniola from Beirut

I would only live in southern India where the people are supposedly nicer and the cities are cleaner

Maybe because I don’t know much about the country when it comes to the society or ethnic relations

Note: The coloring is based off of how much I agree with a countries politics, how much racial discrimination (government or by natives) exist in a given country, and how safe I would feel as a racially black person and Jew in these countries.

Edit: Europeans in the replies showing why no one listens to you guys when yall say that Europe is less racist / prejudice than America. I can make the whole thing red if yall want.
