Mexican authorities have slapped a “closure” order on a 10-foot tall aquatic statue of the Greek god of the sea Poseidon that was erected in May in the Gulf of Mexico just off the beach in the town of Progreso, Yucatan.
There are conservative sects of Judaism that recruit, mostly from other Jewish groups. So, yes. In NYC they will annoyingly bother you on the street with “Hey, are you Jewish?” Even if you are, say “no”.
Neither Jews, Christians nor Muslims are a monolith. While the majority of these groups are fine(or at least the visible parts that are willing to coexist, selection bias!), the poorly behaved ones all have the same characteristics. These parts are always the most conservative, fundamentalists ones.
You might as well add any organized religion or sufficiently large group at that point. Statements such as yours do little except enable the erasure of Jewish identity, good job you’re doing the Christians work for them.
