I’ve seen the notion that singular Jew isn’t used by non-bigots before and I still don’t get it. I’m not from an english-spraking country, is this a usian thing? Are other similar ethnic names like Kurd or Serb also bad? I know Arab can’t be bad, everyone uses it.

It’s a combination of three things:
-
Jew is a proper word which has valid, not-racist use
-
Jewish people tend not to use it
-
Fascists tend to use it a lot
So if someone calls themselves a jew it’s not a guarantee that they’re a fascist but it’s a good 75% they are. I used this example in the argument but it would be like when you see someone online say “I’m a black” instead of “I’m a black person” you probably know that they’re full of shit.
