    He called people “goyims,” which come to find out is an Israeli supremacist term to refer to non-Jewish people

    You need to lay off the conspiracy theories and go touch grass. “Goy” (plural goyim not goyims) is just the Hebrew/Yiddish term for non-jews (gentiles in English), it’s not “Israeli supremacist”.

      If you were even remotely honest you’d acknowledge that in yiddish its frequently used to mean someone stupid, not just a nonbeleiver. goyishe kopf means goy head, aka stupid.

      Theres a list of them in the wikipedia for goy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goy search for the word “derogatory”.

      Saying its just means “non jewish” is like saying (pick your supremacist ethnic slur here) simply means “of a certain ethnicity and nothing more” . Its a pure BS propaganda answer. I for one am tired of supremacist propoganda in the world-- its poison and it needs to effing end. People who pursue it need to be put in their place. Enough is enough.

      Terms which categorically pit one group against another cause big problems. And people like yourself that deny any problem are also the problem.

      And “boy” just means a young man. Except when it’s used as a racist epithet against black men.

      Almost as if context matters.

      You’re either jewish or it sounds like you need to lay on the conspiracy theories. You’re defending a group of people that fundamentally hate you.

        A bunch of Arabic schools are calling their students taliban. Obviously they’re islamofascist. Or maybe languages have words for things you poorly educated fuckwit.
