I think the troublesome shorthand of ‘race’ in fantasy and SF is a topic really worthy of discussion, but perhaps this isn’t the place for it? Why don’t we start a new topic to discuss it further? I feel like I’ve already strayed towards derailing this topic, and I don’t want to do that, because, besides risking hurting people for whom the themes are experienced daily, which I want to avoid, the rise of real, actual antisemitic crime is important and I don’t want to distract further from that.
