I'm half Jewish, so white, and able to fly under the radar very easily. I've always known there were evil and bigoted people in the world, but what is really knocking me down is watching my own damned family go down that rabbit hole. The non Jewish side are turning into hard core maple MAGA I'm sitting here thinking "What the fuck?? Were they always like this?? Were all the positive experiences with them growing up just an illusion??" These people would literally have turned me in to the Nazi regime in 1930s Germany. Realizing that half of everyone around me are like this just makes me want to quit living.

I'm all the Jewish and am drowning in family who can identify with Nazis. I've made documentaries for my family about those who we lost and found due to the Holocaust. But here we fucking are.
