Is it wrong that i proudly call myself a Yid?

Many opposition fans use it with negative connotations, the hissing etc. But i wear it as a badge or pride and laugh when people think i should take offense. But I know that it originates from a much darker reference that was used in a negative way. Im not Jewish i know nothing really of how a Jew may perceive it, is it wrong that i am proud of it?

    i'm happy to let it go. it was used offensively against us but we turned it into a positive. i'm not jewish myself so do not want to offend any jewish people. times and the game move on, we as fans have to do the same and hopefully the hatemongers will also learn to stop it. i find it very ironic that chelsea, the originators of the vile stuff owe their very existence and recent trophies to a russian jew and his ill gotten money.

    Don't think it bothers any of us when other fans say it they just want to sing along with us
