But they are only antisemitic to the degree that they are not true.Steve3007 wrote: ↑August 5th, 2018, 4:30 amYes, that's clearly true, as Newme's staggeringly antisemitic posts above illustrate.Greta wrote:There are certain types of Christians with a special competitive hatred of Jews. The pattern follows that of the KKK - a Christian branch famous for its antisemitism - where listings of all the alleged problems caused by Jews, along with selective readings of their texts out of context, and this is used to to justify discrimination.
And they are justified to the degree to which Jews tend to favour Jews over 'goyim'.
The above posts by Newme, are on the face of it antisemitic. However, they do contain facts about the degree to which Jews have key jobs in society.
The mistake of Newme is to see Jews as an amorphous blob hell bent on giving privilege and favour to other Jews, or to Jewish ways of thinking.
Racism works on two basic levels; positive and negative. I submit that they are both bad, and feed one another.
Let me invite you to consider the following question. If there was an institution which gave money to promote "The White People's Prize for Science", or the "White Literary Prize" would you consider that racist?
So why would we not think that the NAACP is also racist? Because Black people do suffer from prejudice? However poor white people resent the help that black people can get that is denied to them. Positive racism leads to negative racism.
When we look at Jewish prizes can we also justify it because of prejudice?
It seems to me that race is an unjustifiable category to understand humans, as when people decide to divide themselves into groups they naturally have to exclude others from that group. They cannot then expect to be treated equally. And if a person of another 'race" objects that they are different, are they going to deny that difference, however arbitrary that difference is?
So are Jews going to expect people like Newme to simply ignore the fact that Paul Wolfowitz, Alan Greenspan, the Koch brothers, George Soros, Ben Bernanke and many other leading Jewish Financiers who have done very well out of austerity and the crash of 2008, without suspecting that they are part of some sort of club?
Having cosy exclusive clubs like the "Jewish Literary Prize", and the "Jewish Prize for Science" are bound to lead to suspicion.
Right now the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA), have a definition of antisemitism so tight that it is impossible to criticise Israel on human rights abuse, with being accused of antisemitism.
If you listen on the BBC they do a sleight of hand when attacking Labour as they have removed some of the more ridiculous parts of the definition, The BBC ask why Labour have not adopted the "Internationally accepted" definition.
The IHRA definition is NOT accepted world wide, and not certainly by anyone with an ounce of intelligence.
Has the BBC not thought it through? Or are they playing the undermine JC game?
Why has 'antisemitism' been heard daily for the last 10 months on Radio 4, a relentless **** at fan throwing? Why, when the actual complaints are largely built on an intellectually bankrupt definition of antisemitism?
The answer can only be that there are vested interests which demand that JC can never come to power, and that antisemitism is just another stick to hit him with.
And the more Jews act like a divisive group the more they get criticised and the more racism becomes real. In the same way Tony Robinson is rallying so-called "white", and "English" people in his more to a pogrom in the UK.
All racism is bad positive and negative
