    Even tho I understand the intentions of this, I have to say I agree with everything, except this part

    Jews are awesome

    I don’t think a generalisation like this can be constructive in any way. Netanyahu is not awsome, nor Smotrich, Ben-gvir neither, and they are all Jews. Jewish settler-colonialists are not awesome, and the problem is definitely not their religion. Jews are people with some religious beliefs, some are awesome, some not so much and some of them are terrible human beings.

    Edit: Maybe something like that would be more accurate:

    Anti-Zionist Jews are awsome

      It was probably truncated for space and given the context of the rest of the poster I think that the “anti-zionist” part was understood.

      I can say that “Christians are awesome” if the context mase it clear that I meant “Christians that follow the philosophies of Jesus Christ”. Without that context, the statement would be a bit iffy.
