Is this anti-semitism?

god (i repeat: GOD) tries to kill somebody, and FAILS because someone performs a CIRCUMCISION.

there's also the jarring leap from the previous verses where God is all tasking up Moses with this important task.

GOD: Moses, get thee to Egpyt
Moses: Ok yo
GOD: Die motherfucker!

Oh god my brain merged abb and d's post into for reading pleasure/surprise per minute I vote Pentateuch over Epistles any day during sex

Picking Persia over the Arab invasion, & making peace with Israeli politics is hard as a raisin in the desert.

Ultimately I pick the remnants of Qabala-descended Nazi psychology in European-American lineage as divided by the Capran school of Mystic-inspired science

in terms of Jews

im sympathetic to goldman's complaint but he doesn't seem particularly interested in the "complex dynamics of the conflict" despite citing the conaway piece? tho i suppose its not in the scope of what hes writing...

fwiw, i don't think the NYT was being anti-semitic. i think this piece falls into the greater complaint about the NYT (made by pretty much every media critic ever) that they're obsessed with telling all the sides of the story even when that kind of paradigm fails to get at larger truths -- exemplified by their political coverage which is often he-said she-said with very little authoritative voice.

I keep winding up watching youtube videos and reading youtube comments that I should probably just not be watching at all, but I'm noticing a kind of rhetoric that I'm starting to get very uncomfortable with although I once thought it was harmless -- "I'm not anti-semitic, I'm anti-zionist." I used to feel like, "yeah, that's fair, of course you can be against the idea of a jewish state without being anti-jewish," and I still feel that way, except that now I see that the line is often followed with fairly scary stuff about how it's the "zionists" who control the banks, the money supply, force the US to fight wars, drink blood, whatever. I haven't changed my mind about criticism of israel or anything, but I think that the attempt to draw up a categorical bad guy is always a dangerous way to go.

yeah anytime someone uses the word zionist I just stop paying attention to them

what if they're teaching a course about israeli socialist day camps? (jk)

"I'm not anti-semitic, I'm anti-zionist."
usually needs an "i'm european btw"

there are two kinds of jews you see

I am enlightened enough to know that

do u know the joke about the difference between an anti-Semite and a Jew? you ask an anti-Semite what he thinks about the Jews and he tells you, "they run all the banks. they are greedy, blood sucking vampires and scum of the earth." but you ask him about goldberg and he says, "oh, goldberg, he's a good guy," and about his friend stern and he says, "well of course stern is an exception that proves the rule." you ask a Jew what he thinks about the Jews and he says, "the chosen people. truly a light unto the world." ask him about goldberg tho and he says, "goldberg is a dirty cheat." and about stern? "a fucking bastard."

I've always been convinced that it's something about the sound of the word / the letter 'z' that makes it so imposing and mysterious and conspiracy-theorist-friendly

the "bad guy" banker in margin call is named jared cohen. none of the other characters have jewish names.

yeah I noticed that in the review I read, and I hesitate to call out shit like that but it sounded sort of o_0.

I'm also sort of torn on the harping on Goldman Sachs, the jewiest sounding investment bank. OOH they are shitheads, but otoh they really did not singlehandedly engineer the crisis. If you go down the exec rolls at a lot of the major finance companies, you don't actually find that many jews. I don't think any of the major people in AIG Financial Products were Jewish, or the people running Countrywide or the other big mortgage originators.

hurting, you're all about the anti-Semitism exposing these days!

I don't think the goldman sachs harping is cause of the jewiness, but maybe it's hard for me to look at it the way someone else would

i always thought the singling out of goldman sachs was the Hank Paulson connection

And Katy Perry's family circus goes on.

Days after Russell Brand filed for divorce from the singer, her father is drawing criticism from the Anti-Defamation League for a sermon he delivered last week at a church in Ohio.

Keith Hudson, an evangelist preacher, spewed anti-Semitic epithets in front of hundreds of worshippers, according to various reports.

"You know how to make the Jew jealous?" he said at the Church on the Rise, a nondenominational church in Westlake, Ohio. "Have some money, honey. You go to L.A. and they own all the Rolex and diamond places. Walk down a part of L.A. where we live and it is so rich it smells. You ever smell rich? They are all Jews, hallelujah! Amen."

http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/01/09/us-katyperry-idUSTRE8082I420120109

I think that's anti-semitism, yes.

The Rev. Keith Hudson, father of pop megastar Katy Perry, spoke at Church on the Rise in Westlake on Thurs, Jan. 5, and made comments stereotyping Jews that the church's pastor Paul Endrei said were taken out of context.
Endrei confirmed that Hudson told attendees, "You know how to make the Jew jealous? Have some money, honey. You go to L.A., and they own all the Rolex and diamond places. Walk down a part of L.A. where we live and it is so rich it smells. You ever smell rich? They are all Jews, hallelujah. Amen."
But Hudson's remarks were meant to be complimentary, said Endrei, a Shaker Heights native.
"He was praying for business owners ... he was talking about being blessed in life," he said. "What (Hudson) said was, ‘God wants you to be blessed and have God's favor on your life, like the Jews are blessed. He wants you to be so blessed that you can even make the Jews jealous,' which was inappropriate.
"You might say that with your friend or whatever, but it was inappropriate," Endrei said. "If he would've just said, ‘Hey, God wants you to be blessed,' it would've been fine. He went too far."

Yeah, he also used the "some of my best friends are" excuse, too.

I clearly am related to the wrong Jews. I want to be related to Keith Hudson's Jew-friends. Although since they are Jews they probably wouldn't give me any money, any money.

Repeated for extra anti-semitism I guess.

In any case, fuck "prosperity gospel" and "pro-Israel" Christians.

weird non-sequitor

People who are being complimentary to Jews often refer to them, collectively, as "The Jew"

Mordy, if you click through, that's their excuse for how they couldn't possibly be anti-Semitic. Why, they're pro-Israel and preach along with Messianic Jews!

"the jew is using the black as muscle against you"
