I wasnt sure where to post this, so Ill do it here, hopefully someome could help me out.
So on twitter today, political commentator Ben Shapiro quoted a member who apparently believes that the Jewish people run the world and are evil and all that, and responded by poking fun at the tweet.
I liked and retweeted his tweet, and I responded with something along the lines of "this post needs more parenthesis".
I felt clever, and throughout the day my post got more likes than what Id usually get on twitter. I decided to take a look at a few of the profiles that liked my tweet, and all three of the profiles I randomly picked had hateful posts about Jewish people in their timelines.
Feeling a bit worried that I messed up, I looked through my followers, and realized that all the pro Israel profiles that once followed me were gone.
Im feeling kinda bad, I mean in my mind I thought I was making a joke at the expense of these people, as youll often see these people type (((them))) online when talking about the Jews. But it would appear that I did the exact opposite of what I was trying to do, and may have insulted people that I would be supportive of.
I dunno of anyone knows better than me on this situation, and can explain what I dont understand.

Sometimes we just make mistakes. Tweet you true position. Contact all those you can and explain what you meant.
