I'm wondering what kind of authority you think "Jew here" gives you. All it does it whitewash these sentiments for anti-semites.

It means that "Jewish identity" being some sort of monolith is hilariously dumb bullshit.

This guy doesn't speak for me or any other Jew. Fuck outa here with that garbage. Tribalism is for racists.

If you reject the Jewish identity then why do you say "Jew here"? What does it mean to be a Jew exactly?

And how can you tell me I don't speak for any other Jews when that's precisely what you are doing when you say, "This guy doesn't speak for any other Jew"?

And why does your Jew card overrule mine? Not that I've even played mine, but I'm a Jew too. What gives you the right to say "Jew here" and try and overrule anything I might say about the Jewish identity, as if my opinion doesn't matter?

And do you think all groups should engage in this kind of behavior? Run that thought experiment. What would the world be like?
