What about all the non-Jewish people in Israel and around the world actively contribution to, relishing in, and celebrating what's happening? Can we talk about them?

There's idiots and great people in all ethnicities, and not understanding that fact is being incredibly simple-minded.
Fun fact: The faster a car travels, the bigger the spacing between the cars gets. That's necessary to leave enough distance for emergency stops.
While the speed increases linearly, the spacing increases with the square, meaning at double the speed, the spacing quadruples, which in turn means that throughput (number of cars per hour) halves.
This is the reason why many regions use electronic speed signs to drop the speedlimit lower when there's congestion. Because it increases throughput and thus reduces travel times.
The optimum speed for high throughput is 30km/h.
Counterintuitive as it might be, drivers should be all for 30km/h speed limit in cities, because it would make them get to work faster.
Number 3 happens all the time to me when using VSCode with Copilot as autocomplete. Copilot sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. Also happens a lot when using Pycharm with Python. Sometimes it's great at autocompleting, sometimes it completely gets lost and has no idea what my Python script is doing.
Number 5 also happens a lot on VSCode + Platformio. It also frequently happens on Intellij IDEA for me, but mostly when I am concurrently running build or test while writing. My crappy work laptop suffers from Windows 11 related performance issues, and when there's not enough performance available, underlines do get wonky quite frequently.
My Ender 5 has a modified E3D Toolchanger and MGN rails. Not very original either.
If you don't root your Android you can even run a full desktop Linux in a proot container. You can run all Android apps and Linux apps on it. Using Winlator you can even run most Windows apps and there are emulators for most systems out there. If you cann that "barely anything" you are lacking imagination.
Apparently you haven't used Chromebooks or MacOS, but you clearly misunderstand the topic at hand.
There's always a balance between configurability and stability, and every single OS, even Windows, falls somewhere on that spectrum. If you allow a user to break their system, the downside is that they can break their system.
iOS, unrooted Android and ChromeOS fall on the "less ability to break your system"-side with Windows and MacOS following rather closely, and different Linux distros are on the full spectrum in between. Immutable distros make it harder to break yous system at the cost of immediate configurability, while running Arch you can do whatever you want and you'll likely destroy your OS while doing so, if you don't know what you are doing.
Again, all of that are choices done in user-space, nothing about that comes down to the kernel. You can make any Linux distro entirely unbreakable by taking away sudo rights for the current user and making every non-temporary directories and files read-only. You can do that in 10 minutes and suddenly there's nothing the user can do to break the system. But the user also loses a lot of abilities. Again: all of that is user-space only and has nothing to do with the kernel.
And yes, there are enough stable and comprehendible Linux distros out there, but if the user has sudo rights and the constant and uncontrollable urge to destroy their system, they will find a way to do so.
Android runs an only slightly modified Linux kernel, and yet the OS requires much less from the user than e.g. Windows or MacOS.
Chromebooks run a bog-standard Linux kernel and the target audience is kids.
My car's entertainment system runs a standard Linux kernel, and the UX is so cut down that PC expertise really doesn't matter when using it.
MacOS and iOS, two systems known for their ease of use, both stem from BSD, which comes from Unix.
The kernel has nothing to do with this.
In fact, the only mainstream kernel used in user-facing operating systems that doesn't "come from Unix" is Windows. Everything else is derived either from Linux or BSD, which both are derived from Unix.
There isn't even a mainstream phone OS anymore that doesn't "come from Unix".
