    Or just possibly it hasn’t got anything to do with Jewish people. This might come as a shock but not everything does.

    This is from someone with a reasonable amount of that heritage telling you to shut the hell up already. You’re not the main character.

      Calm down there achi. You’re coming in with a lot of pretty unnecessary defensive energy. I’m just letting people know about some language that is harmful to a vulnerable minority in case they want to avoid it. You feel free to do with that information what you need.

      You’re talking out your ass. Do some research on David Icke, the dude who started the whole lizard people thing. Dude is an antisemite.

          Nah, but you can recognise that his social/political thought and language used to express that is not something you should repeat mindlessly and accept and be appreciative of criticism when its given so you can correct future behaviour to make the world a more welcoming place for all. Right?
