So is it being used as slang outside the context of describing people as non-Jewish? I grew up in Skokie, IL, so I was familiar with the yiddish term, but I haven’t heard this new usage. Are non-jewish kids online using “goyim” to refer to outsiders of some other in-group?

It’s mostly used by Jews and Yiddish speakers afaik
thanks!
You’re welcome!
