    Oh look, someone who thinks that “Jew” and “Israeli” are synonyms.

    As always, no matter where I live, no matter how much I say I hate Israel, I will always be a foreigner and a Zionist.

      Really? You really think that? I know that plenty of Jewish outside of Israel don’t support the current genocide of Palestinians, and I know plenty do.

        I think you sure as fuck implied it, when you said:

        It would mean more if Israel weren’t actively genociding Palestinians.

        Why would it mean more unless Jew and Israeli were synonyms?

          Are they likewise condemning the genocide?

            Ah, I see, so it isn’t “Jew = Israeli,” it’s “Jew = Pro genocide.” Totally different.

            Do you also expect every Muslim to denounce ISIS every time they face bigotry themselves? I bet you don’t.

              Da’esh. They surely were, when da’esh was in the news.

                You’re evading. I didn’t ask if they were. I asked if you expected it. Do you? Or are only Jews expected to denounce genocide every time they face bigotry in your view?

                  No. I don’t expect any decent behavior from anyone, but the United States administration should apologize for creating conditions that caused it, and fix it. And these circumstances are actively different, and I will try to be more sensitive. I don’t expect you to self reflect, since several people have called your words/reactions out in various threads, but that’s no reason I shouldn’t.

                    What words and reactions are those that “several people” have called out? Go on. Call me a Zionist and prove my point.
