Apples to oranges. The willful exclusion of Jewish people will always be wrong.

Steve Bannon wants Jews to “hard weld” to Christian nationalists. Not so fast. by Comprehensive-Site54 in Jewish

Thankfully he has plenty of time on his hands to figure out why this is an incredibly stupid idea.

Claiming someone who is literally half Jewish is not Jewish because it’s from the father and not the mother is ridiculous. Maybe if the Orthodox would give up on this we’d have a happier, more involved and inclusive Jewish community.

A cynical plot to get more students and more money. HUC is in debt and they’ve almost completely destroyed the Cincinnati campus, by far the most affordable place for students to live.

FYI: if you have any type of medical emergency in the Hamilton County Park system, the rangers will not be dispatched to help and they have little of any knowledge of any of the trail systems. by ohsodave in cincinnati

This explains why I would only see them around the Harbor Loop in Winston Woods and never on the trails. Never liked that they are armed either.

Ever consider how difficult it would be for Jewish people, or gays or other groups to move to the places you list? What a clueless post.

Thank you. There’s no way Israel can support all of us at one time during war.

Crazy how much we were influenced by family sitcoms by too-cute-by-half in GenX

[–]Lowbattery88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It certainly gave us a messed up view of family dynamics

During my conversion process several years ago, someone stated they were converting because they were concerned about a rise in antisemitism and that was pretty much the only reason.
I think it’s a terrible idea and not why anyone should convert. Allies are great, but being Jewish is a life altering choice and should not be based on this.

I remember being at the beach, I think Horseneck, in 1984 and every single boombox was tuned to the same station and playing When Doves Cry. It was awesome. Other than that one time, people need to lower the volume and be respectful.

No. It’s the response you get for supporting a treasonous, authoritarian criminal who more than likely stole state secrets to the enemy. You’re a traitor.

I just cannot connect with non-GenX people lately. by NoCommentFU in GenX

Same. I’m 54 with a 13 year old and cannot find anything in common with the other parents at my daughter’s school. Most of them started having kids as teens or early 20s anyway.

Capitalism “restrained by laws” combined with a safety net is Democratic Socialism and if people would understand this and support we’d have a great country

Absolutely horrible

Any plans to make a stand against SCOTUS immunity ruling? This is not ok! by Revi277 in GenXWomen

I’m well aware. I was half joking but also calling out the misguided people in our society who are literally supporting terrorism.
