Made the mistake of mentioning I was Jewish at my international internship in Ireland. 😀 like thanks but i actually didn’t ask for a whole history lesson on the conflict. I know.

Ireland has very very close cultural ties and affinity to Palestine, also being a country deeply affected by British colonization and partition

It has absolutely nothing to do with my Jewishness. I mentioned my bat mitzvah bc we were talking about embarrassing childhood moments which was met with a political conversation. It was out of left field and entirely inappropriate in the moment.

bro if all they said was “oh i’m jewish and had a bat mitzvah” then why the fuck did israel need to come up? there is no correlation in that specific situation. it’s like people coming into jewish posts and saying free palestine. it has nothing to do with being jewish. stop being ignorant.
