Why is it that every time a Jew speaks out, somebody finds it the peak of hilarity to make this exact comment?
It doesn't do anything to foster dialog or up engagement on the site.
A lot of people, especially those on the far right, have painted anyone critical of the Israeli government 's actions in Gaza as anti-semites. This is clearly absurd if you take a second to think about it. Making note that Jewish people and Israelis are also critical of these actions is pointing out the absurdity of the statements of the far right.
I just think it is a tired joke that is in essence doing what the far right does, which is weaponizing Jewishness.
