I have noticed a steep rise in antisemetism on the web in the last 5 years. Mainly via anonymous handles.

I doubt this Walloon toughguy would say that in certain parts of Fun City.

Too soon?

Very definitely. Like, never.

This is apparently what happens to people when they have lived for generations where the closest exposure that they’ve ever had to the realities of war, genuine hunger, and slow, painful death has been as a participant in a video game or by watching sanitized war movies.

Bingo. I have seen it in Germany. Their feeling of guilt is vaporising right now. Their minorities and neighbors has to take notes.

Just read a study that said that watching violence does not make you violent, what it does is makes you insensitive to violence. People who watched a violent movie did not respond to a cry for help.

That’s definitely part of it, but I think there is more to it. The commie left has always had a strain of antisemitism brewing, and lately, as they have gained more and more power, they have been encouraging that sentiment in the public. They try to be subtle, by couching it in talk of “neocons”, “zionists”, and “banksters”, but usually when you scratch the surface of a leftie talking in those terms, they are simply using them as substitutes for saying “jews”.

What is bizarre is that the most virulent part of the left has always had a significant Jewish contingent, even though they are mostly secular jews. Perhaps there is some weird manifestation of self-loathing going on, I don’t know.

Antisemitism is not typical for a traditional left, unless you counts Nazis as such.
They are attracting a number of freaks to their ranks, including closet anti-semites, but antisemitism is not an approved behavior for sure.

I didn’t say the traditional left, I said the commie left. There is definitely a long history of antisemitism from that quarter, though the American devotees have not been vocal about it until recently, and even now, only in euphemisms.

Well, Stalin has parted antisemitism as separate capital crime it his criminal code at the time, his politburo was 80% Jewish. Also his diplomacy was actually a major vehicle for establishing of Israel. It wasn’t before late 1940s when Soviet politics became openly antisemitic (after Israel took Western model instead of socialism as they planned).

And if Bibi gives away more of his little country, he will be responsible ( with Obama and Kerry of course. ) for the next six million. ( The Obama Kerry scheme isnt called “ auschwitz borders “ for nothing. )

Some things are mean and hateful... Some things are childish but funny.

I am recalling the time a friend working for a carpet cleaning outfit was doing a job at a country club. There was a sign in the foyer of the clubhouse that was made of those clip in plastic letters that said “Welcome back members!” at the top.

He took a letter L from lower on the sign and turned it into, “Welcome bLack members”.

I still laugh thinking about the outrage it caused.

There's hardly anyone left who's actually guilty. Sorry, I don't buy into that "guilty for the next ten generations" crap. Remember and respect, yes.
