Teachers' union NEA members endorse cutting ties with ADL

I think the Too Hot post might have been the final nail in his colffin.

 

It’s a bizarre dynamic that I will never understand.

 

This is just wrong. On so many levels.

 

You talk to 5 people and make a firm conclusion and Stereotype about all Jews. You clearly lead a very sheltered life.

take a listen to Bari Weiss or Sam Harris sometime. Clearly you’ve never read Bret Stephens.

Do yourself a favor and broaden your information bubble. It is quite obvious your strong opinions are partly a result of a lack of exposure to anything else.

 

While I personally did not find the post to be anything close to offensive, that Panel was IMO skewed. Speaking only from my life experiences, my family has almost always been conservative, or leaned conservative (I’m independent with a bent towards the right, while also being anti-MAGA). I have Jewish friends who are vociferous Republicans and MAGA, and Jewish friends who are screaming Democrats. The stereotype of “all Jews act on concert” is just that—made-up stereotypes.

 

Or … the repulsive MAGAteers, Stephen Miller and Randy Fine.

 

It's not hard to understand. Liberals will always take the side that is the underdog or with less perceived power. I'm surprised they don't root for Vandy over the Gators.

 

You may be right, but I’ll still never quite understand the dynamic of the “all or nothing” political mindset.

Certainly some truth to that. But saying 'always' is never a good idea. For example, most American Jews identify as liberal. I doubt they're pulling for Gaza in this fight.

AIPAC

 

Educators as well as academics should be objective and their "unions" should not endorse any political entity, party, etc.

 

Or his widow Mariam Adelson.

 

It really does crack me up how little people who attended UF, with the largest Jewish population of any university in the world outside of Israel, know about Jews…how diverse they are, what different Jewish groups care about etc. Jews are as much a product of where they live as their religion. As an example - My BIL is conservative, very pro Israel and raised in the south. Much of the Jewish part of my family is liberal, being from New York. They care about Israel but also don’t villainize the Palestinians and see that conflict rationally. There’s also a world of difference between how Orthodox Jews view the world and how reform Jews see it. Jews overall went dem in thr last election by over 70 percent of the total, orthodox to trump by 70 percent. And we also have a large segment of cultural Jews who care more about the cultural aspects of their history than the religious side.
To lump all that together is just lazy. I’m not offended by it, it just seems kinda willful to me.

 

JINO’s?

 

Nice speech, but like rhythmeswithdill believes, all Jews are simply not Jewing right. He should know, knowing nothing about Jews and all.

Me too, being non-Jewish but being married into a whole heap of them. I diligently tell them how to be themselves, and I won’t stop until they accept that my idea of who they are is in fact the only way to accept themselves for what they really are in my mind.

It is important to never sacrifice by acknowledging someone else’s beliefs so that it doesn’t inconvenience your own. Otherwise you will never be able to set shit straight, which is crystal clear to anointed people like myself and fourlettersstartswithbendswithill.
