A majority of Russian Jews (as in the ones actually living in Russia) support Ukraine in the war, which is insane.
Like American Jews, they're more loyal to their jewishness than their nationality.
Which is both their strength and their weakness.
A lot less people would have problems with Jews, if so many of them weren't so utterly obsessed with their own ingroup, but also with belonging to every other group. If Jews could just keep their chill, everything would go a lot smoother.
Also, people always quibble over atheist Jews, Zionists, religious Jews, ethnic Jews, and what have you. Belief system largely doesn't matter. Jews like and prioritize Jews, nearly across the board. A Jew loves Israel; supports Jews. A Jew is an atheist; supports Jews. A religious Jew; supports Jews. A Jew hates Israel; this group is less adamant thankfully, but when the chips are down, still has that Jewish identity usually.
I'd never thought of it in these terms, but it's actually similar to women and feminism; No matter the outward belief system, almost all women are - to some extent - feminists. Likewise, Jews are generally pro-Jew.
Which is fine...if large swathes of them weren't so often advocates against other groups, largely in countries they claim to be a part of. Ingroup preference is natural, and I don't begrudge Jews looking after and caring about Jews. But it's the trying to have it both ways thing that pisses so many people off.
Are they exempt from conscription by any chance?
I don't know. A lot of them started fleeing Russia though.
Way back before the war with Ukraine escalated, every single "russian" that critcised Putin seemed to be jews. It was funny when one found out I was onto one of them.
