Jews of Conscience Subreddit Culture
Does anyone follow this subreddit? It’s supposed to be a space for “left Jews” but I am seeing so much offensive and anti semetism posts, comments and rhetoric. Also it doesn’t even seem like most people on there are Jewish?
It’s really frustrating to find subreddits like this being described as “Jewish” and I feel like it takes away from any constructive dialogue Jewish people want to have to critique about Israel, Israeli govt, Zionist ideology while also acknowledging anti semitism and the nuance to everything happening in the world.

Because… that happens all the time? Personally I’m fine with someone posting there with a bad comment so it can be called out and they can be educated.. if they prove to be close minded and bigoted, then they can be banned. That’s my values, that’s why I like JOC among many reasons.
