Christianity superseded Judaism. Some pro-Jewish evangelicals try to argue that Judaism is perfectly valid, but there would be no need for a Christ if Judaism was perfectly fine as it was. Maybe the apostles should have told Jesus "nah bruh, we're already Jews, and that's good enough - member?" instead of getting themselves skinned, beheaded and crucified.
Talmudic Judaism isn't exactly the religion of Jesus, since it wasn't invented yet. I'm in line with the people who say that Jesus preached against exactly the kind of people who run Judaism now. So they went that way, and Christians went this way.
I don't think that today's Jews get to wear Christianity's origin like armor. After schisms, people tend not to like each other very much. That's how it is.

Well, Jesus obviously did not have Judaism as a religion - he was neither a Pharisee nor a Sadducee. But since Talmudic Judaism came after Jesus, it makes even less sense to argue that it would not be better for Jews to convert to Christianity... since they do not follow the religion they've had since immemorial, but the one that came after Christ.

Jesus and the Apostles were ethnic Jews. That is why it is stupid for any Christian to say that ethnic Jews are bad. They may freely argue that the religion isn't good though.

Those were only two of the 2nd temple sects. There were also the Essenes and later, the Zealots and Early Christians all worshiping at the 2nd temple. At least up until the Zealots started a revolt against Rome, getting the temple and every sect except the Christians and Pharasees destroyed.

You are correct. Some allege that Jesus was an Essene, but he was meaningfully different from them as well.
Well I think it would be bizarre to say someone is "bad" based on their ethnicity. Not to get too SJW on you :)
People are bad based on their actions, but there are also evil organizations, and "conspiracies".
Can't disagree there.
