In the last couple of days, I& #39;ve seen a lot of Mizrahi Jews using a similar languge to that of Americans when talking about discrimination happening in Israel making an analogy of how Jews that belong to a certain category complain about their experiences of discrimination is the
same as "white" people in the US saying they can also be oppressed, this doesn& #39;t make sense because as a response SJWs point out they are the majority, they use it in terms of a hierarchy of oppression while Israel lives in a different context whereas that group of
Jews, aside from not being white, they are a minority in Israel. The point of this thread is not to say that Ashkenazi Jews are oppressed and Mizrahi Jews are not, that& #39;s not the point, I actually believe nobody is structurally oppresed, anyone regardless of what group they
belong to can still experience discrimination, not even merely just based on skin color, and that doesn& #39;t mean that an individual belonging to [instert any group] and facing discrimination means his group as a whole is discriminated.
My point is to also highlight that no one should dismiss their individual experiences with discrimination.
