Stop conflating Israel's atrocities and zionism in general with Judaism and Jewish people. It 1) plays right into Israel's strategy and 2) is, or at the very least begets, antisemitism.
Judaism is a religion and not an ethnicity. A white person from NEW JERSEY putting a tiny hat doesn’t change his ethnicity.
A jew in New Jersey is an american (location) following judaism (religion).
A jew in Palestine is a semite/arab (location) following judaism (religion).
Again, I didn’t conflate them, israel is a self proclaimed jewish supremacists state.
How is saying 'the genocide they're committing' when talking about Judaism not conflating Jews with Israel?
You are not reading eh? IT IS conflating the two, you are just mad at the wrong people.
Zionist deeply conflated their supremacist ideology with judaism 100 or so years ago. This way, if someone criticises you, you can call him antisemantic and go on with your ethnic cleansing.
But it’s more than conflating, it’s hijacking it, because often many zionists in power positions don’t call themselves zionists but jews. Again this is a shield.
Do you want to be a practicing jew without all the lying, stealing, pedophilia, blackmailing and genocide? Be my guest.
Aren’t you tired to be lied to your face every day on every fucking platform? Do you think is okay to lie so you can massacre kids?
Instead of your pointless rhetorical questions, answer mine please.
