And Christian Zionists far outnumber Jewish ones so if Israel really is your issue, stop vilifying and generalizing all Jews

I’m explicitly not vilifying all Jewish people and explicitly only calling out Christian and Jewish Zionists. Specifically the Zionists who use the term in a derogatory manner towards non-Jewish people

How would a non Jew talk about “goyim” in a derogatory way when they are a goy themselves? What ? You are clearly talking about Jews

Did you even remotely read what I said?

I did. Apparbelty this post is just about the people, Jewish or not, who use goyim in a derogatory manner. It is logically impossible for non Jews to do that. Hence it’s pretty clear this is about Jews

And if it makes you feel better, I am a lifelong jew and never in my life have I sat around with other Jews talking about how much better we are than non Jews.

If you want to equate the derogatory use of goyim with only Jewish people that is your prerogative. As far as I’m concerned, anyone who views themselves as “inherently superior” is wrong, whether it be white supremacists or Jewish supremacists

Ok well goyim refers to non Jews. It’s in Yiddish, a Jewish language, so yes it is associated with Jews lol. It is also logically impossible to use it in a derogatory manner unless you are a Jew or are literally talking about yourself in a derogatory way.

So you do admit that it can be used derogatorily?

Yea just like most words, there are contexts in which it can be derogatory. “Jew” can be derogatory too

The way it became associated with some international Jewish plot of domination is from the far right. It’s a dog whistle because almost no Jews even use this word today, it’s very old fashioned

Agreed that the discourse surrounding the word is co-opted by both sides to push a specific agenda. There is so much nuance that neither side is willing to accept

I mean anyone who is arguing that the fact that there in Yiddish exists a word for non Jew is some sort of sign that Jews are trying to dominate non Jews is unhinged and bigoted. Just about any word cannnnn be used in a derogatory way. It doesn’t even have anything to do with Israel because it’s not even in Hebrew and people in Israel don’t generally use the word at all
