Why the fuck did you even bring up Jewishness into this?
Israel is not Jewish people.
Because a ton of bad faith actors are equating the two.
Fucking Jerry Seinfeld.
Do you think appealing to bad faith actors is a good rhetorical strategy?
Generally, no, but in this instance, yes. I don't know who's reading this that genuinely thinks they're the same. A brief disclaimer to not look like a bigot seems worth it.
That's exactly what I said, and I said it because it's necessary to remind people of that. Antisemitism is absolutely on the rise, so the distinction matters to me.
According to everything Israel says, they are.
