Since when is mocking any religion taboo? You guys have been following the wrong comedians.

Oh, I don't think that's taboo at all. That's basically the common fare.

My entire point is that people will conflate mocking the Jewish religion, for mocking the Jewish people; which will get them up on a high horse and unhappy and/or angry with you for being antisemitic.

Ah fair, thanks for clarifying!

Comedy is different than genuine criticism. The first is allowed, the second not. You are free to do as they tell you.
