so something else that antisemites love to do is to debate us on our own beliefs and our own religion. they’ll make some ludicrous accusation that that can easily be disproven by actually listening to one of us, but they want to insist on it being true regardless. why would you want something you’re so angry/upset about to be true? wouldn’t you prefer it to be false?
antisemite goy: “the talmud actually says you want to rape and enslave all of us. i know because ive read it!”
me: “i don’t think the talmud says that, and if it does, then that’s one vastly dissenting and radical ideology that has nothing to do with the actual ritual practices and beliefs of judaism. none of us truly believe or think that. also, the talmud is very long and not our main book of guiding practices.”
them: “NUH UH. YOU READ THE TALMUD. YOU WANT TO RAPE ME RIGHT NOW”
