Talk:Joo

Etymology 2
The second etymology of "Joo" attests to be "humourous", when it is anything but funny. It has never been used as an "informal" version of Jew. Not in the entire history of Judaism, has 'Jew' ever been spelled "Joo". It is, in fact, pejorative. Ripsgirl (talk) 08:49, 10 December 2022 (UTC)

RFV discussion: December 2022–March 2023
Etymology 2. RFV, in particular, that this is "humorous" rather than derogatory/offensive, since I've only ever seen this form used by neo-Nazis and the like. posted a note about this at Talk:Joo a couple of weeks ago. —Al-Muqanna المقنع (talk) 20:57, 28 December 2022 (UTC)


 * I would venture that this is used to try to avoid automated social media content filters. DCDuring (talk) 21:56, 28 December 2022 (UTC)
 * I've also seen it used to mock neo-Nazis, though I suspect this started later. Binarystep (talk) 03:04, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
