Not Understanding Individualism

I work with a close friend who is an elite university graduate from a Muslim country. What still amazes me is his inability to understand individualism. He falls back at each time, but you are Jewish.

The fact that I am Jewish in ancestry does not bind me to a preset political positions. He points out that I would never date a Muslim woman. This might sound amusing except that the person saying it has married a person from his own country. Similarly, when I started a relationship with Sunbeam there were those who were upset I did not date a Haitian  woman first. I don't understand where these obsessions with my private life comes from. However, my tastes are quite eclectic and more varied then those of my critics.

I am not bound by tradition to practice a faith. Unlike far left phonies I have more then a passing familiarity with the faith that they are completely ignorant of. This does not prevent them from screaming I am a Jooo
outraged by whatever. Actually those lefties never were Jews. They are Marxist drone followers of a death cult.

I am free to define my political views with the same intellectual freedom as the next person. I find it odd that this person does not grasp this basic concept of Americanism. There are those who blame his country of origin. I blame the University Intellectual Gulag that imposes far left conformity at the expense of critical thinking.
