I quoted another commenter and got flagged as an antisemite 🙃

Someone asked for a link on how Judaism is passed down, I provided, and they said they preferred “short and sweet,” as opposed to articles. I said short and sweet is what makes us miss out on understanding each other, and nothing about the Talmud is “short and sweet.” I even looked up the definition of that phrase in case I was dumb and misunderstanding it, but it means “brief and relevant,” and Jewish texts/laws aren’t brief… They’re detailed, well thought out, and you could spend a lifetime studying! Personally I think they are relevant/sweet/amazing/etc., but that was completely beside the point and not relevant to the commenter.

This is what I get for looking up the r/Israel sub to follow and falling down a rabbit hole I didn’t know existed. I have now learned to shut up and dodge those subs, they aren’t genuinely asking for more information or a better understanding. It’s so disappointing to see subs that only want a hateful echo chamber where they throw around the word “inbred,” and boot anyone who doesn’t fall in line.
