It 1) objectifies jews and 2) perpetuates a stereotype

i understand how it could come across that way, and i don't really have a dog in the fight besides thinking that sometimes the (lack of better term) word police use light hearted comments as equivalent to genuine hateful rhetoric and i think not grouping people together like that is a net benefit to all parties. anyway thanks for the response/clarity-- i don't think either of you guys will benefit from being angry at each other and maybe sympathy can help them understand why it's not helpful or respectful to say esp given the ongoing trend of jewish commentary in today's politics. apologies if this comment is an overreach.

I don't think it's outright hateful but I think if people normalize shrugging off comments like that it continues to build on this "greedy evil jews" stereotype that is already far too complacent in 2025 Not nipping it in the bud is how you end up with another holocaust

to step away from this argument a bit-- i generally disagree with the extreme labels flying around today, and i think using terms like "nazis" to describe trump supporters leads to just as much danger in that it justifies any means necessary to stop them-- generally speaking i think the vast majority of American's including myself would forcefully defend against overt nazism and support generic religious freedom. I grew up around the less tasteful version of that and i feel pretty confident it's a very isolated group even when politically disguised, and even then it's mostly a reaction to an equivalent level of hate from some other impoverished group. i really do believe that sympathy towards both sides is the only way we can move forward from the extremes, and it's why i stopped voting until i can better understand my own place in the larger system. all that is to say i both didn't understand the OP was offensive, and respectfully won't defend use of the stereotype.
