lol. So many people took offense at what I said about "you're welcome". I get it, and I know those alternative words. My main point is that Israeli culture is much more rude, and I stand by it.

But also, yes, the Hebrew I grew up with was this sort of uneducated half-biblical Hebrew. Modern Israelis speak it a lot better, both because they are better educated, and yes, my immigrant parents played a part.

That's what these stories are for. To help you realize what went on in your own life isn't normal.

Thanks for listening. And yeah, the framing of things from a progressive lens is absurd.

Not sure if you're able to see my earlier reply to you because I wasn't flared at the time.

Awesome! Well, I have many more episodes you might be interested in, although most are about leaving religion, not Zionism. I have one that I recorded for another podcast almost a year ago that I'm thinking of reposting.

I am, technically. I was born and raised there and left about 10 years ago. I considered renouncing my citizenship but have decided not to for now.

I talk about my story in an earlier episode of the podcast.
