the purity of Jewish blood is sometimes extremely contentious for some if not many Jews....especially chicken soup mamas who you mess with at yer peril I’ve learned the hard way

i have often found it hypocritical that many Jews obsess with who’s Jewish enough and get really riled over the Khazar claims

but yet, many Jews are at the vanguard of racial mixing and the dilution of anyone else’s heritage....advocacy wise....the anti-pluralist message applied to race and ethnicity

hell, we’re all hypocrites sometimes I reckon...I know I am

I think Jewish pride in their blood heritage staying intact in laudable but it brings up the old goose and gander argument for me anyhow.

I never really noticed this until I lived in NYC, down South it was different with the tribe.

This has come up for discussion with certain elderly Jewish friends of mine who were veterans of the Civil Rights movement. Basically, they will argue that they see no problem with folks marrying "their own kind", but that others should have the freedom to mix if they want to. I share the same attitude (being something of a miscegenatist myself, I have no problem if folks want to "keep it in the tribe" whether that be Chinese, Jewish, or plain old white American).

I can honestly say that blue collar Catholics of Italian/Polish/Irish ancestry were were resistant to both neighborhood integration (due to the parochial constraints of their faith) and interracial dating than any white people outside of the south. You really don't see any interracial couples on Staten Island to this day.
