Would it be less offensive or racist if someone had said that Zelenski is more skilled at acquiring coin, by grifting or any other means, because he's a Jew? Maybe the Imperials installed him there for the same reason a gangsta rapper hires a Jewish accountant.
people who are not deranged Stormfags don't go around blaming things on demographics
It depends on how many people in that demographic shoot you or whatever. Patterns of history. If a white woman bicycles through a backwards muslim country and gets raped and beheaded, it would be just as deranged for her family to claim "well there's bad apples everywhere, she couldn't have known!"
But I must agree with Liberty Prime that you could have made a better "not all Jews" argument without defending these Jews. Maybe something about how it's Jewish people in power vs. the little guy and it's more about the type of people attracted to power than the ethnicity. I don't know, maybe you were making a different point that came across wrong.

I'm not sure a Jewish comedian is at good at acquiring coin as an accountant. But I wouldn't find it "offensive", I'd just find it funny.

Of course. That is quite different from going to your local Turkish butcher and saying: HEY THERE MR. MUSLIM, FUCK YOU FOR KILLING MY DAUGHTER!

Did I give the impression that I was defending Zelensky? Odd.

My main objection to people only attacking "Jews in power" is not that they attack Jews, though I'm not a fan of attacking ethnic groups either, it's that they let off the hook A LOT OF very nefarious people simply because they are not Jewish.
