I don’t understand the response to this. (I’m an intermarried Jew so my sympathies are elsewhere but…) Parents — especially parents of small minority groups — often have preferences about who their children marry. The children get to decide lol. America!
"Anti-racist" ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt tells Israeli podcast his family will NOT engage in intermarriage. "My children are Jews and they will create Jewish families in Jewish households. End of story. Non-negotiable."

Also this isn’t as clean a political issue as I think some of you think it is. I know lefty, antizionist Jews who would not marry a non-Jew.

Sick before having kids: Oh, it's a little adventure back to wellness! I'll bring my friends — soup, popsicles, and Netflix :-) Sick after having kids: There are things on this earth worse than death...

A great first sentence for a brilliant novel about the issues of today would be, “It’sa me, Mario.”

It’s really funny when election analysts on TV are like “this is the Republicans’ worst fear coming true” like losing elections is an obscure phobia of political parties.
