I really don’t see why Jewish people seem so universally hated...
Ok everyone listen up. I’m is going to try to explain why people “hate the jews”. Please keep in mind during this explaination that I myself don’t “hate the jews”.

Fundamentally this is because there are many jews disproportionately represented in the higher levels of media, education, and politics. This leads many to associate the entire group with the goals of the left, because “they” are over-represented in the centers that push the ideology.

Race/ethnicity and IQ play a huge role. Theres a demographic group of ethnic jews that collectively test pretty high in standard IQ tests. Almost one standard deviation above the next highest group. That goes a long way to explain the over representation in specific fields. It also goes a long way to explain why jews make up a huge portion of Nobel laureates.

People should mean a specific group of jews when they say “the jews” or “the jewish agenda”. They should mean “liberal jews that are in positions of power”, but that doesnt have the same ring to it and is unfortunately conflaited down to “the jews” in classic prejudicial fashion.

This isn’t to mean the inherent concern isn’t without some merit though. There do exist some customs that are undeniably jewish, which have had awful effects on our culture. Circumcision is a great example. This is a jewish custom that is barbaric and an overall reprehensible thing to do to a newborn. Yet It has been promoted by top government and medical officials in the country for decades. Many of whom happen to also be jewish.

Pornography is another. Jews are over represented there too, and many think porn has a horribly degenerative effect on society. But again its not like the jews as a whole collectively support pornography.

There is alao a great deal of angst at Israelig policy/influence too. We tend to be israels burly protector. Many see that in a martin prince / nelson muntz kind of relationship (to put it mildly) Im sure fone will supliment the appropriate simpsons reference.

Anti semites think jewish individuals put their sense of jewish tribalism above a duty to the reat of us (cue the jewish merchant meme). So when they see jews in the highest positions of government amd media, they think we’re being manipulated by a covert jewish agenda. Don't take this to necessarily mean theres some secret stonecutter manifesto although i have no doubt many do think of it like that. Think of it like the media bubble in that if you’re surrounded by a specific group think, it tends to influence your decisions.

CJ was right yesterday, it looks like the GOP has finally grown tired of Steve Kings rhetoric. He is losing sponsors and endorsements.

All good reasons Nasui, but all 20th century American reasons.

Antisemitism goes back millennia.

Speaking of insane I was listening to NPR and they were talking about witches...I thought I was on drugs...

They had a serious discussion on witches...God help all of us.

And of course it related to feminism and girl power or something. My mind went blank after about 20 seconds.

It's like me listening to the Time Kaine ads on TV, where he talks about "they need to step back on the partisan stuff from their leaders" and stuff. "REALLLY???!?!?!?!?!?!?!? PROVE IT YOU HACK!" usually comes out of my mouth....

Kill the Jews.

Pretty much. Everyone else used the Jews as convenient scape goats whenever their society had problems.

Pence faces fury for 'rabbi' who said Jesus is the ‘Messiah’ during Pittsburgh prayer
Washington Examiner - consistently conservative

Quote:
Vice President Mike Pence and GOP congressional candidate Lena Epstein face backlash after appearing on stage Monday with a "rabbi" who called Jesus the “Messiah."

At a campaign event in Detroit, Loren Jacobs led a prayer for the victims of the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting, which left 11 people dead. "God of Abraham, God of Isaac, God of Jacob, God and father of my lord and savior Yeshua, Jesus the Messiah, and my God and father, too," Jacobs said as he prayed.

Jacobs is a "senior rabbi" for an organization that considers itself a "Messianic synagogue" and believes Jesus is the Messiah.

Bend the Arc, a Jewish Action group, condemned Pence, calling the display "another attack" from the Trump administration....
Can't make this crap up.
So Pence, and by association, Trump, is at fault for a Rabbi making a claim about Jesus being their own Messiah??? Is that the problem?

Its a problem for the community because they had a giant list of recognized rabbi's to choose from and they picked some guy from a fringe group.

The whole thing is a botch for the administration, they told Trump not to come today, the first day of funerals, because they didn't want to deal with the circus of having a President in town. But he came anyway, not caring, because this was the only day that he could "fit it in." He has campaigning to do.
They also didn't want him there because of his "Nazis are good people" remark from last year. Makes one wonder if he's actually HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE, or is completely evil.
