You are both Jewish (as far as I know), but that isn't your ethnicity.
There are plenty of reasons to shit on your mortal enemy, Elon Musk, but you do not need to make up stuff against him. Call a spade a spade.

Jews can be white. Being jewish is a religion. His comment (or the one he supported) is targeted at that religious group. No statement of hatred towards a skin color, specifically. This is potentially antisemitic, perhaps bigotry, but not racist.
Any other examples? Elon is a douche, but not every douche is a racist.
Ok. I'll bite. Tell me all the "overt racist" things this billionaire has done.
Haven't been on Lemmy in a week. Come back, and the top thread on All is about Musk. I'll never understand the obsession with this cat. His haters appear far more obsessed with him then those who worship him.
We are living in this timeline.
Yes! Trillian was awesome! I used it fairly religiously from the early to mid 00s. Combined my ICQ, Yahoo messenger, MSN messenger, and AIM. I miss that beautiful, convenient piece of software.
You tell'em, Best Friend.
Exactly. You're not supposed to mention what they "identify" as. Or any other gender nonsense. Unless it is the focal point of the story to be told, then don't mention it. That's how you normalize something. By not drawing attention to it.
My favorite example is a character on Agents of Shield. He was a scientist that had a drinking problem. We knew about it from the start but didn't find out why until later in the season. Years prior, he was drinking and driving while his husband was in the passenger seat. Got into a wreck, and his husband died. It wasn't until that moment that we knew he was gay. Why? Because it was irrelevant. Spoiler alert, no one cared. He was a well written character, who was easy to sympathize with, who coincidentally happened to be gay.
I didn't realize until my late teens (mid-00s) where the term came from. Still call them that to this day. Never cared to find out if they have a proper term.
"Nazi" website lol. Ok buddy.
This is becoming a circular conversation. It's your religion. Stating otherwise doesn't change anything. Enjoy your week.
