early Israel DID force SWANA/MENA jews to de-orientalize and abandon practices from diaspora countries bc it was seen as culturally inferior+wanted them to assimilate to the greater jewish monolith but painting Hebrew as some sort of white supremacist ashkenazi invention is false

All you’re doing by using this ridiculous talking point is erasing sefardim/Mizrahim that have kept their Jewish language and culture alive in their diaspora countries and were just as Jewish as “iwhite Zionist ashkenazi Jewish supeemacist” you’re trying to advocate against...

This is not to erase those who were forced to assimilate to the status quo and abandon practices from their diaspora countries but rather to point out the hypocrisy, Hebrew is a JEWISH thing found across diaspora populations across the globe not a “Zionist” thing.
