No, I'm sorry, but this is an important moral issue.
The Jewish people have a right to exist.
I'm not going to stand blithely by while people chip away at that by JAQing the proposition that there is even such a thing as the Jewish people.
- GloomyBoots 3y agoDo you feel the same about other peoples? It seems like a very over-the-top response to a common and thoroughly inoffensive understanding of Judaism as a religious rather than an ethnic group. I mean, how do you feel about similar questions regarding Palestinians?
- emmelaich 3y agoOf course they have a right to exist and to self identify as Jewish. The question is is whether it's a useful category for this purpose. I think it is. But you can also divide it up various ways - Levantine, Sephardic, Ashkenazi.... Are the Lemba Jewish according to you? Does it matter whether they're observant or not?
