    All this nonsense to keep the Western colonial project called Israel running smoothly. What race is “Jew”? European Jews are not Semites, just like Nigerian Christians are not Nordics, but I’m sure this makes sense to many Westerners somehow. 🤷‍♂️

    But then they’ll also do nothing about hate towards Palestinians or any other Semitic people. In fact, they’ll probably punish people for speaking in favour of Palestinians!

    Protection is only reserved for Israelis.

    The word jew is effectively meaningless because they can’t even decide if it’s a religion or an ethnicity. If it’s an ethnicity (which it’s not) then why are most of them genetically European (so much so that they discriminate against Arab jews, who they consider a distinct group)? And if it’s a religion then who cares? Any religion that views the rest humanity as deserving of enslavement needs to be eradicated.

      It can only be a religion since people can literally convert to it. There is no way to tell whether someone is Jewish.

      Anyone who believes that it is an ethnicity by default adheres to the religion of Judaism because that’s a Jewish belief. Including Jews who call themselves Atheist.

      There’s a viral video of a non-Jewish guy visiting the Synagogue in New York https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6UtZ-u9CyM and he doesn’t wear a yarmukle. So they keep asking him whether he’s Jewish… because they have no way of telling if someone is Jewish!

      And on the flipside, the moment someone says they’re not Jewish they’re not bound to being Jewish just because of their parents. They are then no longer Jewish. Simple as that.
