it lowkey hurts my feelings when I see a tiktok from an atheist calling religious people dumb. idk. I don’t call people who don’t believe in religion dumb. I feel like it’s not a bad trait to follow a higher power. Adonai has helped me improve myself so much and guys I am SO much nicer than I used to be. And if that helps someone change for the better, why is it a problem? Most people irl don’t have a problem w/ atheists. Only atheists have a problem with religious people (deadahh speaking from experience). If you’re brainwashed then maybe organized religion is bad but genuinely most people aren’t :(

I think people take for granted the cultural strength of their ethnicities or backgrounds.

I’m a Jewish Canadian, adopted by a Venezuelan mother. My parents (though now separated) are a very Jewish woman from NYC, and a non traditional Venezuelan atheist. That’s resulted in me having a complex relationship with my cultural identity.

I was raised with relatively strong ties to my Jewish heritage. Attending Hebrew school on Sundays in elementary school, going to synagogue on the high holidays, and lighting candles for Shabbat whenever my mom would remember. But growing up in rural Canada, I’ve always felt far removed from the actual culture and community that my mom grew up with in New York. The synagogues here are small, and the Jewish communities in the cities I’ve lived in average around 200 people total (as far as I’ve observed at least). No matter how many services I attend, I’ll never feel a sense of true belonging and community like what people seem to have in Jewish dense communities like what exist on the east coast of the USA.

My relationship with my Jewish identity has also changed and been strained by my toxic relationship with my mother. It’s so easy to feel the urge to distance yourself from a culture and religion that’s been so heavily tied to a specific person and their influence in your life. It’s easy to act like I have such a strong Jewish identity when I’m the only Jewish person in the room. They have nothing to compare me to. This is 90% of the rooms I’ve been in throughout my life. But at home, by myself, these things come into question in my mind.

yk what fucking pisses me off? jewish influencers / celebs who profit off of anti semtic propaganda and stereotypes. it truly truly does make my blood boil. there is so much anti semitism in this world and the fact that i see jewish creators profit off of it? also hate self hating jews. i love being jewish! i will always love being jewish more than anyone could hate me for it.
