I thought it had to do with the term kikel which apparently means circle because the jews didn't want to make an x because it resembled the cross to much so they circled answers instead of checked with an x. Jews hate Christians and White Christians so much my head spins when I hear judeo Christian.

This is what I learned too. They became known as kikes because they were illiterate and hated Christians.

Which makes perfect sense. Why would a non jew use a jew word? It would be the less supersticious and more educated jews making fun of the superstitious nature of the eastern European jew.

Close. Illiterate people would sign documents with an "X". Illiterate jews, because they hated Christians, would sign documents with a circle. Western jews were making fun of eastern jews by pointing out that they were illiterate.
