No it isn’t. It’s the word for “nation.” In Hebrew it’s used to refer to the people of other nations. It’s not a slur any more than “foreigner” is a slur. It can be used in a derogatory manner at times, like almost any phrase taking about other people, but it’s a pretty simple concept.

It didn't originate as a slur but they use it like one nowadays. You're being intentionally obtuse.

That's like saying Gringos is a slur.

It's different. Israel is a Jewish supremacist state and one of the words they have co-opted to describe the gentiles/non Jews who they slaughter wholesale is Goys. The primary users of the word are literally accused of a genocide by the UN and other bodies who specifically were made to decide such things. It's a slur.

You literally made all this shit up or someone else fid and you just repeat it. Its so funny when people that never stepped a foot in Israel or took the time to dig into the matter comment bullshit with such confidence.

No, you are a liar and a genocide denier. You are a Nazi.
