Yeah, “liberal Jews” is a term with a lot of baggage, IMO. It immediately brings to mind the RWNJ use of the term “cultural Marxism,” then > WWII/Nazis & the House Un-American Activities Committee witch hunts > the Hollywood blacklist & loyalty oaths > Henry Ford > The Protocols > Jewish pogroms in Russia & Eastern Europe… It just keeps going.

All those associations, regardless of whether or not we’re consciously aware of them at any given moment, makes “liberal Jews” sound like a dog whistle to me.
