My ethnicity is Jewish.
Follow me around rural America for a day with my yarmulke on and you'll see why 'white' is not a useful term for me.

Genetically I have a Native American great grandfather.

Most importantly I reject 'race' entirely and refuse to participate in nonsense.

The government says: "White. A person having origins in any of the original peoples of Europe, the Middle East, or North Africa."

So its not useful there either.

More to the point the left uses the term to dehumanize and devalue a person and I simply do not allow them to.

So when a leftwing person tells me to shut up because I'm 'white.'

No.
I am not going to let my skin color be used as a weapon or a barrier and the only way to break through the thick ice of progressive race essentialist stupidity is a slap with 'I'm not white.'

It stuns them.

I typically only engage with this to prove a point of how profoundly racist the left is and to demonstrate how poor their arguments are.

It happens to be technically accurate, but it doesn't really matter.

I'm not anything.
I'm human.
Stop letting 'race' define humanity.

I do not recognize 'white privilege' or 'fragility' or fanfic about colonialism, and the academic and activist obsession with White Supremacy is a cult.

The only way to defeat progressive nonsense is to refuse to participate in it.
