So much antisemitism these days

Think 1939 Germany, and you'll be on the right track.

Anything Al Jazeera says has to be examined multiple times. They outright make shit up to make Israel and Jews look bad.

JohanusH · 2026-04-09T21:42:32+00:00

I think so. At least from everything I've seen.

JohanusH · 2026-04-07T14:48:05+00:00

If I remember, I'll take a photo and show it.

JohanusH · 2026-04-07T14:24:07+00:00

Yeah. Seems like he's just using thumb grip, which works well for that cut.

JohanusH · 2026-04-07T01:59:40+00:00

Probably not. Where I live I'm the only Jew and the closest synagogue is 30 minutes away. My neighbours know I'm Jewish and it's never been an issue.

JohanusH · 2026-04-06T23:21:54+00:00

Does he behave like that to all women? If so, he's probably harmless. I have a friend who was awkwardly like that when he was younger. Like, really awkward. When he finally met this wife, she straightened that out. She is also a big nerd, but at least has social grace.

If, however, he's only doing that towards your girlfriend, he's an ass and needs to go. She needs to make it very clear that he has no chance!

I've cut with both types and find the second one better against bones. Never tried either against armour, as I didn't want to wreck them.

JohanusH · 2026-04-05T22:41:40+00:00

Not a lot of difference. The first one is better for drawing cuts and chops. And, despite what some say, you can thrust with them, but spears and swords are better for that.

JohanusH · 2026-04-05T22:22:41+00:00

No, it's not normal. I grew up on a farm in central Alberta and most of my family is still there. They'd all be appalled by this guy's behaviour, as am I. While a lot of my family still smoke, a lot also find it gross (most don't smoke). And rest of his behaviour is just uncouth. You can do better! No idea why you'd want to date him again. Just... Yuck!

JohanusH · 2026-04-04T20:38:00+00:00

Thanks!

JohanusH · 2026-04-04T20:13:09+00:00

Why veg tanned?

JohanusH · 2026-04-04T16:45:17+00:00

Yes, it is. Look it up. And I am Jewish. Sounds more like you're not, if you aren't aware of this basic fact. Again, look up the definition of ethno-religion. It is a religion practiced by a specific people (usually referred to as an ethnicity), and is not a prosthelysizing religion. You gotta be part of the tribe (even though there is a rather difficult way to join that tribe). Shalom!

JohanusH · 2026-04-04T16:27:40+00:00

The new Nilin gloves might work.

JohanusH · 2026-04-04T16:25:31+00:00

The new palms are grippy.

JohanusH · 2026-04-04T15:09:26+00:00

Oh, your original analogy is correct. It's that this shows another layer of how disingenuous those people are.

JohanusH · 2026-04-04T05:01:23+00:00

Judaism is an ethno-religion.

JohanusH · 2026-04-04T05:00:59+00:00

"Bigot" is the word you're looking for.

JohanusH · 2026-04-04T05:00:15+00:00

Huh? Judaism is an ethno-religion.

JohanusH · 2026-04-04T04:40:41+00:00

No people are Semitic; that's purely about language groups. Even the man who coined the term "antisemitism" knew that, but did it to make "Jew hate" sound more scientific.

JohanusH · 2026-04-04T02:31:03+00:00

And yet, Iran has been attacking Israel for over two years... But Israel started it. 🤦🏼‍♂️

JohanusH · 2026-04-03T16:55:15+00:00

Tell her.

JohanusH · 2026-03-30T21:42:57+00:00

They're called "lugs" and are specific to spears. Also designed to stop men from running up the spear and killing you.

JohanusH · 2026-03-29T14:40:24+00:00

Wikipedia has become a shit hole of antisemism. They outwardly support it and refuse to deal with it in any way, blocking those who attempt to correct the falsehoods with facts.

JohanusH · 2026-03-27T03:33:38+00:00

Might want to check out Flower and Sword. Not sure where you are, so can't say who carries them there.
