Actually terrifying. Wouldn't eat the meal. This is exactly the kind of reason that most European jews hide their identities.

Because they support genocide? 🤔

[-] Iceblade02@lemmy.world 20 points 4 days ago

Because people target them based on their religion/ethnicity.

No problem. Hope you found the answer informative :)

I'd be afraid that the food had been tampered with. It isn't even something that I'd considered until I saw this post, but there is actually a huge degree of implicit trust involved in eating a meal prepared and handled by someone else.

This meal was targeted specifically because it was labelled kosher, because it was expected that a jew would be receiving it.

The message itself isn't anti-semitic, but the targeting is, and there are many actual anti-semites out there who want to cause real bodily harm and/or death to jews.

How do you think a muslim or palestinian would react if their halal meal had been tagged with the note "never forget october 7" or something similar?

Self-victimizing and false equivalence, classic.

Non Jews sure don't have any idea how rabid people who hate Jews can get

It's not like there was a massive event centered around killing as many of us as possible or anything

Well there's certainly no other racial or minority group that could understand that

Maybe it's my own confirmation bias but I see more dismissal of Jewish concerns than others even in progressive spaces 🤷

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 4 points 3 days ago

It might help if you don't imply Jewish people are the only targets of genocide, but I do think this very topic proves the overall point

[-] Aaron_Davis@lemmy.world 17 points 4 days ago

I personally find it hilarious. And I'm a Jew who supports Palestine.

[-] pastermil@sh.itjust.works 4 points 4 days ago

Sound argument. I'd like to add that pork beats kosher!

[-] Iceblade02@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

That definitely depends. On the one hand there are some pretty delicious jewish cultural dishes, and I know some Jews who are religious and stick strictly to kosher diets have a hard time with the taste of pork after not eating it for a long time (a bit like vegetarians with meat). On the other hand, bacon though...
