Reply to comment by fellow_enthusiast in Ashkenazi Jews Have Become More Genetically Similar Over Time – A new study of skeletons from a cemetery in Germany reveals a hidden history of Jews in the Middle Ages. by SebRLuck

I did - and there's a lot of genetic and historic evidence. Not only do we know that it happened, we know exactly when and how. I'm not going to summarize all of it here, but there's a ton of information online including on Wikipedia and there's a ton of information in mainstream historic sources.

>Ashkenaz issues are a subset of Jews, but all Jewish groups are ethnically distinct and have more in common with one another than with other groups - we all have common DNA from before we were concord and exiled.

. Umm, no. no you did not. im not arguing wherher jews were or were not exiled, it just seemed like his question was a weird, antisemitic attack about something that you hadnt mentioned.

Sorry I’m super late to reply, but I just wanted to ask if you even read the comment you quoted? Read the last word of the quote in your own comment. I agree the person was being weirdly anti-Semitic and you were trying to have hitchhikebaby’s back, but the last word of their comment was literally “exiled”
