calimary
Something I've never been able to understand, and I hope somebody can help.
WHAT do so many people have against the Jewish community? WHY the anti-Semitism? WHAT is so doggone offensive?
I've tried for a long time to figure that out and I just can't.
I Just. Don't. See. It.
I Just. Don't. Get. It.
We have some seriously-world-class thinkers here. I'd appreciate some enlightenment on this.
Thank you in advance.

Good questions.
You should ask ilhan omar for her insight in this matter.

Interesting comment, insightful and dumb:
LakeArenal (20,530 posts)
5. Haters gonna hate.
Germans hated the same groups
Jews, homosexuals, POC.
Christians just can’t live with the fact that Jesus is a Jew. They have tried so hard make Jesus white.
The Insightful: Seriously, "Haters gonna hate," is about it. Like bullies, haters find something, anything - different about their chosen target and that becomes their reason for bullying and hatred. Religious Jewish people are different - dietary laws, the Sabbath, sometimes manner of dress, sometimes style of hair and beard - and different often leads to separation. Separation is the seedbed for misunderstanding, stereotypes, eventually bullying and hatred - whether antisemitism or DU's annual Why I cut off my family ritual storytelling.
The Dumb: Jesus' Jewish ancestry and religious culture was always in what I was taught in church when I was growing up. Ironically, in the context of LakeArenal comment, I grew up in a Lutheran church, specifically, a German Lutheran church.
When I was growing up in the very late 50s and the 60s, our congregation did not have any "POC" members. That the congregation had only switched from German- to English-language services 20-25 years earlier probably had lingering effect. There was a black lady who visited the various churches in turn, and she was welcome when she visited. In the 70s a Hispanic young man married a young lady in the congregations and over a number of years became an elder.
LakeArenal needs to look inward and reflect on his/her, "Haters gonna hate," comment.

If she is not available AOC will also work.

Just like almost everything else....money. people of the Jewish faith tend to bring much higher incomes than those around them. Blame it on envy, keeping up with the kohens etc....

The calimary primitives needs to ask itself these simple questions:
Who is more likely to support the nation of Israel; conservatives or liberals?
Who is more likely to support the Palestinians; conservatives or liberals?
Just a reminder calimary primitive; Palestinians want to kill Jews.

The democrat party has a deep bench to call upon when it comes to this subject.
Rashida Tlaib removes tweet with ‘river to the sea’ phrase
Tlaib, a Palestinian American who does not believe Israel should exist as a Jewish state, came under fire for the retweet from pro-Israel groups.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., removed from her Twitter feed a retweet that said “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” a phrase that has been associated with calls to wipe out Israel.

I saw this just one minute after my last post.
‘Are you kidding me with this?’: MSNBC assembled quite the panel to discuss the hostage situation at Texas synagogue
MSNBC had to keep it mostly in-house with its panel to discuss the taking of hostages at a Texas synagogue Saturday. Claire McCaskill’s a contributor, and then there’s Al Sharpton, who has his own show on the network and is an expert source of anti-Semitism.

To borrow a phrase regarding the UK's Labour Party, the Democrat :-) Party is thoroughly Corbynized. Unlike the Labour Party, the Democrat :-) Party has not given the boot to its anti-Semites, and at present shows no signs of being inclined to do so.
