Parts of the Jewish left believe trauma explains attachment to Zionism. But what they call “trauma” is more likely a collective story than a

The homogenization of vastly different histories into a grand narrative of Jewish trauma points to a desire to tell a palatable story about how Zionism became hegemonic in American Jewish life. Like the original deployment of the lachrymose conception of Jewish history, it relieves Jews of political agency while making historic trauma the focal point of Jewish identity. This time, what gets lost in the mythologized Jewish past is an understanding of the political, economic, and social forces that shaped what scholar Shaul Magid calls the “Zionization of American Jewish life,” like the centralization of financial and communal resources by Jewish communal leadership toward support for the State of Israel. Zionism was not simply adopted by a terrified rank-and-file American Jewry, nor is it a trauma response today; it was, and is, a political project, with specific and evolving strategies aimed at particular, and—it should be emphasized—violent aims.

sounds very similar to a radio story i heard in 2014 ago about credit card debt. the debt got sold to a collection company and a couple received a court summons. they knew they had taken on debt, but they were confused about who this new company was and where specifically the number they were supposed to owe came from.

they show up in court and just ask the lawyer for the collection company: can you prove where this number comes from? Do you have a contract showing that you purchased our debt? probably luckily for them, a reporter researching a book on the topic showed up and asked the same questions.

10 minutes later they get in front of the judge and the collection company drops the whole case and theyre free to go. story is below, it has a transcript in the link too
