@ivy @LARSNEVERDIES it looks like the nickname for baseball player Enrique Hernández but does not have the accent on the last E and is thus not pronounced that way

i've heard it's because of the way Jews were said to have signed with Os instead of christian cross-like Xs

...which, if true, would mean that the most common slur for a Jew is etymologically related to the name of the Ku Klux Klan 💀
