Why, I greatly appreciate sites about foreign languages study, for instance.

Of course, something like politics.stackexchange.com would be a suicide.

I'd rather avoid either asking or answering anything there like a plague. Maybe not as suicidal as tweeting something slightly unorthodox on a politically heated topic, but still not a place to be while the cancel culture exists.

Judaism is a heated topic. If they did not have judaism.stackexchange.com, they would not have the Monica Celio incident.

That sounds awfully close to antisemitism. Perhaps you'd like to expand upon your statement?

What makes Judaism as a topic more heated than Christianity, Islam, and Buddhism, all of which also have their own Stack Exchange sites?

... no, definitely missed it. Do you think that there's something special about Judaism vs other religions that makes it contentious to talk about?

If so, what and why?

If not, what are you talking about?
