    Israel Government <> Judaism

    It’s not really that hard to understand. Much like you can be critical of US government and not hate Americans.

      <> is not the symbol for inequality, either (originating from mathematics) or != (originating from programming) are.

      <> generally imply “brackets” when used as a pair, but without any content in between them can be taken to mean “roughly interchangeable”

      What you write reads as: “the Israel government is roughly interchangeable with Judaism” which seems to be the opposite of what you wanted to say.

        <> is the Excel way of indicating “not equal.” Why? Because Excel is garbage, lol.

      Being critical of Judaism isn’t anti-semitism either.

      I’m critical of all organised religions, but I consider their followers victims and would never discriminate on religious grounds.
