        Additional context: when the triple parentheses first came into use it was used in the conspiracy theory sort of way so it was usually used for they and them

        Example: (((they))) are indoctrinating our children

          Wow, there is far too many layers to this terrible joke…

            Yeah it doesn’t quite land because they don’t specify they’re self hating so even when the reader is clued in they’re still left a bit perplexed.

            Absolutely should have been “I’m a non-binary Jewish anti-semite.”

        I prefer excessive parentheses to be programmers’ jokes about LISP-like languages, thanks

        would have been better if (((they))) said they’re a self-hating non-binary jew. I didn’t get that they were supposed to be racist against themselves

        like the joke is also stupid and bad but on top of that the execution is terrible

          yeah, it seems like the author just forgot that the word “antisemite” exists and went with a more confusing route
