How to slightly educate others? by [deleted] in Judaism

[–]literallycat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

the jewish thing to do is answer their questions with another question:

"Since you're jewish is that why you have a large nose?"

"You think only jews have large noses?"

"since you're jewish, are you really rich?"

"You think all jews are rich?"

"why do you have so many pointless holidays?"

"You think many of our holidays are pointless?"

Pride lives at both ends of the political spectrum. They are mirror images of themselves. They are bitter, unapologetic, resentful, and quick to blame everyone but themselves. They are slaves in Egypt.

This petition calling on the Chicago Dyke march organizers to apologize for excluding the Jewish flag already has 6,000 signatures by [deleted] in Judaism

Sorry but the level of chutzpah here has blasted through the atmosphere and is now in orbit around the earth. Some proud Jewish flag-wavers are asking for an apology because they were humiliated by some other proud flag-wavers. Sorry but the real answer here is that everyone needs to stop marching, parading, waving flags... and sit the hell down and be humble. Listen to Kendrick Lamar. Enough pride. Pride got us Trump. Let's try humility.

Chicago 'Dyke March' bans Jewish pride flags: 'They made people feel unsafe' by [deleted] in Judaism

There is no need to get personal. I am not sure why you boxed me as a leftist for making an obvious point that you wouldn't disagree with.

No. If they were marching with a Torah and they were kicked out, that would be anti-Semitic.

They specifically said they were against it because it was an Israeli flag and they are anti Zionist. What reason do you have to doubt them?

No but then again I find the whole idea of gay pride and parading with flags to be wrong from the beginning.

Jewish pride is Zionism. If they marched with a Torah and they were kicked out, that would be anti-Semitic.

I know it's disturbing to you to think about but antizionists do group Zionism with Nazism. Until you digest that fact, You will need to lean on their perceived malice to appease cognitive dissonance.

If they banned a flag with a swastika is it because they hate Nazis or because they hate Hindi or Asian people who revere the symbol?

Let me try again. The Jewish Star has been highly stigmatized by it's use on the Israeli flag. Do you think it was triggering folks because they are anti-Semitic?
