    Can you trust any video anymore, now it’s so easy to fake them?

      It used to be that denying genocide was offensive to the Jewish community, but now it seems to be something quite commonly practiced by Jewish people.

      I’ll now politely pretend that there’s no causal relation to anything political going on in the world, and that you aren’t even implicitly denying a genocide, nor that this could possibly reveal anything about any religion you may or may not have practiced.

        Me? What I practise? I’m agnostic, I was just making a remark on the irreliability of video evidence. I could have said it about any claim.

          Okay and now I’m politely going to remind you that I did specify “may or may not have practiced” (notice the imperfect form), while pretending that I don’t understand that you’re now unfairly portraying yourself as not having practiced Judaism so as to avoid being seen as biased in the political thing were definitely not talking about in this discussion about “videos being unreliable”, which is definitely you not implicitly denying the currently ongoing Palestinian genocide, which, if it was true — and I’m not saying it is — would be ironic, considering how much the Jewish people suffered from genocide denial.

          But also… this you?

            I wasn’t lying in that earlier comment. I did go to a Jewish school, and I am also an agnostic. I didn’t go there by choice, and I don’t practise, not believe in, Judaism. I don’t identify as Jewish, but in the context of that comment, I do have personal experience of what religious schools are like, to weigh in on that discussion.

              I would never accuse you of being a liar, sir.

              Now we shall both focus on the specific way you have practiced Judaism, but no longer do, so we can ignore the Palestinian genocide which you are implicitly denying. It simply wouldn’t serve anyone to note that yelling out “fake news” while actively avoiding any proper discussion is a really old and simple propaganda technique, so please, tell us how you did you avoid Judaism while in a Jewish school?
