I think it’s pretty funny albeit unhelpful.

I am not sure it is unhelpful.

If they have a caricature of us already… let’s live up to standards.

Yeah because playing into antisemitic stereotypes is helpful to us /s

It's pretty obviously a joke. If someone sees that and it gives them a reason to be antisemitic, they were alread an antisemite.

Idk, there are a lot of guys whose mouths love to write checks their ass can’t cash. I don’t think this guy thinks it’s a completely a joke.

I stand behind what I wrote, and I actually do it irl. Try that.

Whenever they say “the Jews this” or “Israel that,” I play on their fears and say that they better not be heard, because the Mossad is everywhere.

Those who jokes about it — move on. Those who are serious — panic. And being in the military myself, I am able to add more information which they cannot verify, but they have to be scared of because Satan is helping us (yes, they genuinely believe it).

Their obsession with us shows much more about their pity lives than anyhow about us.

The antisemitic stereotype is that we’re sheep.

It’s not the 1930’s anymore. Nazis jihadis and communists all must know, we have a nation with a military that is unafraid to use it, and on a personal level,

Jews with ARs don’t wind up in boxcars.

The current anti-Semitic stereotype is that we are both evil monster terrors to the world but will also fold up and surrender at a little bit of violence against us.

u/Max_Kapacity Modern Orthodox Jan 22 '26

And both are wrong.

Going out of our way to avoid them doesn't seem to help either.

It's still cringey to me - if you have too announce you're a tough guy you're not really a tough guy.

Sure. Don’t go out of your way to avoid the stereotypes but don’t give in to them out of spite.

They believe it anyway. Let them be scared of it.

Egypt lost the war in 1973 for that reason precisely.
