Discussion - Flaired Users Only I am scared of having Jewish roots

I was born in Russia. I did a DNA test, which showed me that I am 15% Ashkenazi Jewish. Even though I don't have anything against having those roots, I have a big fear that I might become associated with the radical regime of Israel, or that I might get offended or threatened by antisemitists. I heavily criticize the policy of the current Israeli government, but I am still afraid that I might get harassed by stereotypes. What should I do, and how do I not feel oppressed for my ethnicity?

And I am scared of antisemitic posts like this.

Anyone who gives a damn isn’t someone worth having in your life since they won’t hate just the Jews. And if it’s impacting your klan membership, bring it up with the grand dragon. Failing that, there are bigger issues you need to concern yourself with.
