![In Israel or in jewish schools in America, jews use an upside down T symbol as a plus sign to avoid using a + that looks like a Christian cross. Imagine hating Christians so much you won’t even use a plus sign… That’s “Judeo-Christianity.“ [700x543 - 283KB]](https://pic8.co/sh/Cd63UO.png){kind=link}
Another such avoidance of the Cross, from Kikepedia, no less:
The word kike was born on Ellis Island when there were Jewish migrants who were also illiterate (or could not use Latin alphabet letters). When asked to sign the entry-forms with the customary "X", the Jewish immigrants would refuse, because they associated an X with the cross of Christianity. Instead, they drew a circle as the signature on the entry-forms. The Yiddish word for "circle" is kikel (pronounced KY - kel), and for "little circle", kikeleh. Before long the immigration inspectors were calling anyone who signed with an 'O' instead of an 'X' a kikel or kikeleh or kikee or, finally and succinctly, kike."

It was their fellow jews, the more educated and assimilated "German jews" from Western Europe, as opposed to the poorer waves of "Russian jews" from Eastern Europe. Why would an actual American use a yiddish word?
Imagine having to talk to the dirty kikes and tell them to sign the forms. Knowing the degenerate, illiterate jews would refuse to use an “X,” and might not even speak English, you would need to tell them how to use an alternative sign mark. Pointing at the document, you would just say, “kikel,” to hurry them through the process and get their smelly, filthy selves out of your queue.
