In the past internet communities were more heterogeneous. Now everyone lives in a bubble. This makes the snowflakes feel more safe. But this also concentrates the racists, sexists and bigots in their own bubbles where their hate festers.
That heterogeneity is what I miss the most and snowflakes in general ruined web 2.0 for me.
The internet is plenty heterogeneous today... given there are multiple communities that encourage mass killings (Christchurch, most infamously), the internet is too heterogeneous.
Christianity is uniquely welcoming in a way that neither Islam nor Judaism are. Judaism is exclusive and you're not invited. Islam is more similiar to Christianity but in many ways mutually exclusive with it, so again not really inviting for us in the western hemisphere with a Christian background.
In any case it is not up to people with a Christian background to decide to get their noses in the traditions of other cultures. That would be culturally insensitive. You should have posed this question to the Muslims and the Jews of America.
That's not strictly true. I suspect those that follow Orthodox and Ultra Orthodox Judaism are exclusive. However, those that follow Reform Judaism and the Conservative Movement support conversion to Judaism, so you are invited.
