“Not sympathetic when they are part of the people who are trying to destroy my Country.”
———————
You mean like Obama, Biden, Harris, Pelosi, Mayorkas, Gavin Newsome, Anthony Fauci, Mitt Romney, John McCain, that Cheney bitch, 2 of the 3 female Supreme Court justices, both Clintons, Ted Kennedy (of 1965 Immigration Act infamy), Jimmy Carter, etc.? Those Jews?

Not do you even consider the many Jews who are as MAGA conservative/libertarian as anyone on FR.

Stick your antisemitism up your ass.

'Systemic racism against Jews in the United States included segregation, redlining, quotas, and gatekeeping, and was the motivation for the founders of Hollywood to start an industry where antisemitism wouldn't harm them.'

Okay. So at least they know that this is a really stupid idea.

Maybe you crybabies should concentrate on just making good movies? Acting well? Maybe try that, and then reward those who do the best?

I was talking about the Actors, not all Jews. I’m Jewish, also. Doesn’t change the fact that these 2 are reaping what they have sown.

Of course thier are many Conservative Jews. I am not going to excuse the Leftist ones. They hide behind Antisemtism and that is despicable.

First they will ban the Saturday people, then they will ban the Sunday people.

Not this time. The war on Christmas began with Christmas, not Hanukah. And the modern DEI left first came for White Christians, not Jews.

Nor is this the first time the left began with the Sunday people.

The French Revolution persecuted Catholic clergy, but emancipated Jews.

The Bolshevik Revolution first came for Orthodox clergy and nuns, and only much later for other groups.

“You assumed something that I didn’t say.”
————-
You said, “Not sympathetic when they are part of the people who are trying to destroy my Country.”

“They” are obviously the Jewish Hollywood types discussed in the main article here. “Part of the people who are trying to destroy my country” means to me “part of a larger, similar group, which can realistically only be Jews. I can’t take that phrase, as written, any other way…but, of course, we are all guilty of writing things that mean one thing to ourselves and something quite different to others. I can certainly accept your explanation, and withdraw my accusation. But please try to be more careful in phrasing this kind of thing going forward - after October 7, I have less than zero tolerance for what I perceive as antisemitism., especially since one of my nephews is a refugee in his country due to Nazi Hezbollah rocket fire, and another is in Gaza fighting the Nazi Hamassholes.

As for you being Jewish and believing in a man being divine…let’s just say that while I respect your right to believe as you choose, and to pray as you choose, we have some theological differences. Someone believing differently from me is fine - believe me, it is not a new experience - just so long as they leave me and make me alone to believe as we do (and I am sure that you do). Peace.

“…’It erases Jewish peoplehood and perpetuates myths of Jewish whiteness,…”
*****************************************************************

I know that there are non-white Jews but EVERY Jew I have known personally or worked with HAS been white. And I live in the Baltimore metropolitan area where Jews are definitely not underrepresented. The fact that all the Jews I am acquainted with or work with are white is NOT A MYTH.

Sorry guys but being considered white because you are white is just something you’ll have to live with.

The United States is a constitutional, representative republic.

These people do not recognize or accept this fact. Instead they institute the very SUBJECTIVE identification and treatment of people. The very thing which leads to discrimination and mistreatment. They are supporting subjective treatment of others rather than respecting other people’s right of representation -which basically allows the market to decide.

They’re bigots.

It is a belief system not a race.

That's not exactly true.

Many if not most Jews are now secular. Ergo, it may not be a "race" per se, but it is a bloodline and heritage.

You are correct, but there is also an ethnicity component.

Hence, “Tribe”. Some of my family take offense at this, and it can be mean. But so can any word in context.

As of this year, movies will only be nominated in the Oscars' Best Picture category if one of the lead actors or a significant supporting actor is from one of the underrepresented racial or ethnic groups in the Academy's list.

The Academy Awards were ostensibly created to recognize and reward excellence. Of course the results are debatable. But when they become the diversity awards they are truly finished.

They didn’t want to be descriminated against like “regular” white people.

Surprise! Jews are regarded as “privileged whites” in the new Woke hierarchy.

“Embrace the suck”

Haven’t watched them for years.

The Oscars used to be entertaining, featuring clips and songs from stuff I might want to watch.

They lost sight of what the show was supposed to be:a promo for films that people might not have watched, but may develop interest in.

Looks like the only ones who can’t benefit from affirmative action will be White Gentiles - who founded the country and made it the greatest country on earth until recently.

There was a local Jewish magazine in L.A. some 20 years ago called Tribe. A free, advertiser supported publication printed on glossy paper. I think the internet killed it, like many print publications.
