They didn’t refute their Jewishness. They “refute their Jewishness in a holocaust being hijacked by an occupation which has led to conflict for so many innocent people,” which is precisely what you’re doing by misquoting them.
@bungarsargon
I simply cannot fathom the moral rot in someone's soul that leads them to win an award for a movie about the Holocaust and with the platform given to them, to accept that award by saying, "We stand here as men who refute their Jewishness."
Emm... Jews were the only victims of the Holocaust/Shoa. Because that is the precise term for the national-socialist genocide against Jews.
There are other victims of Nazi persecution, like gays, Roma and Sinti, disabled people, socialists, communists etc., but they don't fall under the "Holocaust" category. For example, the genocide against Roma is called "Porajmos". The mass killing of disabled people is called "Krankenmorde". Etc.
Just as a linguistic headsup
Thets interesting information, but you could have worded a different way. They aren't wrong with our linguistics of today, just as a linguistics headsup. It's interesting that there were different names for these different acts, but it doesn't change anything about what they said.
