I get what you're saying but I think they're trying to say anyone who would do this isn't a real Jew. In the same way we try to disavow Christians who are punishing the poor and homeless.

Ah yeah that makes sense. Though in the past I’ve gotten in trouble for trying to say who is and who isn’t a “real” Jew (many an argument about Messianic Jews over the dinner table). But yeah, anyone who supports genocide doesn’t deserve my respect, so I’m okay calling them not real Jews.

Yeah but those are also real Christians.

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

I don't consider them to be. If you want to be a Christian and you open that book to the old testament to preach at me about hurting minorities I'm just going to laugh and walk away.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
