Remembering an argument I had where I got downvoted to oblivion for saying that use of the singular “jew” was a pretty good tell that someone was a nazi, well participants of that argument please take into note this is the kind of shit that gave me that prospective.
I’ve seen the notion that singular Jew isn’t used by non-bigots before and I still don’t get it. I’m not from an english-spraking country, is this a usian thing? Are other similar ethnic names like Kurd or Serb also bad? I know Arab can’t be bad, everyone uses it.
Jew is a proper word which has valid, not-racist use
Jewish people tend not to use it
Fascists tend to use it a lot
So if someone calls themselves a jew it’s not a guarantee that they’re a fascist but it’s a good 75% they are. I used this example in the argument but it would be like when you see someone online say “I’m a black” instead of “I’m a black person” you probably know that they’re full of shit.

It’s a combination of three things:
Jew is a proper word which has valid, not-racist use
Jewish people tend not to use it
Fascists tend to use it a lot
