Board 8 > Politics Containment Topic 159: Just How God Made Us

(+) Yeah! (+)

Like seriously though why can't I be in the middle on this. The two options cannot possibly be KILL JEWS or JEWS ARE GREAT

ffs

to be fair there's a whole religion devoted to this one jewish dude
---

I don't think anyone's position is "all Jews are great". There's a list of specific Jews you're allowed to dislike that gets sent to all liberals on a weekly basis.

The middle ground should be "a person's religion should be irrelevant to whether they hold power unless they're using their religion to enforce dogmatic laws on people."

Right, that is generally my position. I was just pointing out like, damn there is a disproportionate amount of Jews in power. I don't really care, it doesn't cause me any grief or make me want to eradicate anyone.

I am just pointing it out.

There's a disproportionate amount of males in charge in the US, are you gonna make a fuss about that?

Making a fuss about that is not only socially acceptable but it has its own political platform.

Despite that disproportionate amount being pretty easy to explain based on personal choice and what-not.
---

Also I am not making a fuss about it.

Making a fuss would be a lot of work for something I care very little about.
---

This might be shocking to you but the Jewish people as an ethnicity are generally pretty well to do.

Its a bit like complaining that people who went to Ivy League schools hold too much power in our society.

i'm sure that's the only reason, yeah.

I am not fucking complaining. I am pointing something out.

Holy shit you guys are like a bunch of Jew protecting Daleks.

I give hard eye rolls at all the coverage Israel gets

Do you at least understand why that is? Not in a Jews control the media sense but why Israel is kind of a big deal to us?
---

Like I know you guys have heard me complain enough to know what Actual ExTha Complaining looks like.

You have got to realize how insane you all look right now.

Whoa whoa whoa whoa.

Don't bring the Daleks into this. They didn't do anything wrong.

Extha pulling a usual "run into a politics topic, proceed to sniff his own farts, then let everyone know how awesome and above it all he is."

SephG has taught you well.

"I'm not complaining I am merely making observations that are negative in nature"

what you call "actual extha complaining" is actually "extha acting like a lunatic."

what you're doing right now is normal complaining.
---

Yikes
---

ExTha really gets defensive when he gets upset, not new!
---

I honestly didnt expect him to have any major thoughts about Jews at all. Sorry guys!

Who knew Axl Rose was woke?

I'm not interested in painting a broad picture of powerful Jewish men. I wanna be mindful of that stereotype when I say I've had a hard time explaining to people that most of the jobs I've had in NYC across industries were run by Jewish men -- even when explaining that in NYC.

Part of that's probably because of my southern accent.

Even still, my point is I hear ya ExTha but also if your band starts covering 4:44's second track then maybe take a step back.

This woman I'm listening to at work thinks the Senate is controlled by democrats

"Well there is 3 rhinos but that doesn't change the fact that the Senate is all democrats "

Nothing, really.

Jakyl just brought up anti-semitism and I put forth my (what I thought to be) mild thoughts on the matter.

And then the group who can't understand why they're considered the little boy who cried Nazi started acting as though I had just admitted to being a Nazi or something.
---

lol no thinks you're a Nazi

but it is a little weird that your position on anti-semitism was more complex than "I'm against it"
---

I'm a more complex person that most of you what can I say
---

more complex that everyone
---

Smart move is to just stick with "I'm against it"

Gets a liiiiiittle weird to hit the ground with "I'm against it. But, you know, I do gotta say... There's a lot of Jews. Yep. Lotta Jews..."
---

So, four minutes until government shuts down on the first anniversary of Trump taking office... wooo?
---

I don't know which is more symbolic of Donald's first year anymore:

Government shutdown
Make America Horny Again

Just so we're clear I was kidding about the more complex thing lol

I mean that's basically what I said. I'm sorry I have other thoughts than what my liberal overlords have programmed into me, I'll try to stop making you guys uncomfortable with those thoughts.

Thanks.

ExTha, earlier you described yourself as militant atheist. Are you using militant as a synonym for how strongly you feel, or are you actually out there prosthetyzing for the cause?
