if you don't mind my asking, what is a doikaytist? I couldn't find any google results for it :/
doikayt or ืืึธืืงืฒึทื is a Yiddish word meaning "hereness" that was coined around the time the Jewish Labor Bund / ืืขืจ ืืืืืฉืขืจ ืืจืืขืืขืจึพืืื ื formed and is directly in contrast to the zionist "thereness" of yearning for / actualizing the colonization of Palestine.
โThe concept of doikayt was central to the Bundist ideology. The Jewish Labour Bund did not advocate ethnic or religious separatism, but focused on culture, not a state or a place, as the glue of Jewish nationhood, within the context of a world of multicultural and multi-ethnic countries.โ
(the article linked above is by a Black Jewish Doikaytist woman and rules. also i hope the Yiddish words didnt fuck up the formatting of this post too bad)
