    I know a guy with a Hebrew text tattoo at BJJ. That's going to be a weird moment if he brings this up. Is there any way to navigate the issue without inspiring anger like Jeremy Corbyn?

      Just because he has a Hebrew text tattoo doesn't mean he is Zionist. I'd try not to make any assumptions and keep an open mind.

      honestly the fact that he has a tattoo in the first place is probably a sign that he may be on the more progressive leaning spectrum of Judaism in the first place.

      basically don't assume he's gonna say horrible shit, I have lots of Jewish anti zionist comrades that are out there doing good work and supporting Palestinian liberation that would prefer to not be automatically lumped in like that. If he does say something horrible let him have it but give him a chance I guess?

      That said they might not even be Jewish so YMMV lol.

      honestly its kinda concerning that one of the first replies to this is to choke him out, despite the only evidence for his Zionism being a tat in Hebrew. Even in jest.
