Back when gaza war started, someone in the comments referred to Jews as a race. I felt like correcting them, literally copy-pasted a line from wikipedia that says they're ethnoreligious group, not a race. I was banned permamently for hate speech/bigotry.

I mean you are kinda wrong too

Elaborate.

Just in case, this is where I copied it from, the very first sentence; https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jews

Because I would consider jews a ethnic group since you can be Jewish and have no religious ties and ethnoreligious implies religious ties. So really you need to say secular jews or religious jews. Wikipedia obviously just groups it all together

Good point, can't argue against it since I lack knowledge in this field
