    sorry, i thought it’s memes community and we’re joking here, maybe get that stick out of your ass? I’m perfectly aware that not every Jew is pro-genocide, just like not every Jew is a business man with money (like on the picture), i also differentiate between Jews and Zionists, like the guy in the other comment, i’m pro Palestine but i also follow some Hasidic Jews online, so i’m perfectly aware Jews are a diverse group of people with multiple world views

      If that’s your idea of a joke you have a shit sense of humor but we all know you weren’t joking and you’re a cockroach scurrying away with your lame joke defence.

        Then you have to tack on “person” to each instance, adding 3 syllables each time. That would have been 15 extra syllables for no reason.

            You’re right, you said once. So just 3 extra syllables for no reason. It’s not like they were saying “The Jews”.

                The reason is to imply that saying “Jew” instead of “Jewish person” is antisemitic, which it isn’t, Cletus.

                  Saying the whole thing the first time softens your language. It’s a simple way of recognizing a person’s humanity and communicating that you have basic respect or sympathy. It makes it clear to the reader in a very compact and economical manner that you’re not on the attack or some kind of raging psycho who doesn’t ever even think about such things. If that does not apply, you’re welcome to ignore the advice.

                    Most of the time you can glean all that from the content of what the person is saying.

                    Lol, I was wondering why you randomly called me Kevin.
