    It happened to me when I mistakenly said that people with “ski” endings to their surname are Jewish Poles when it in fact apparently only means they have Polish ancestry and nothing about their religion lol

      FYI: Not only polish ancestry. The suffix -ski (feminine: -ska), has been restricted to the nobility.
