James found out how quickly even his friends all closed ranks together to silence him for merely saying that more and more people are noticing who is mainly pushing wokeism.
I didn't see "King of the 'IDW' Jews" Eric Weinstein in there. Surprised. I don't know what to make of that. He's been on a "both sides are awful, and I'm the only 'reasonable' one left" tear.
the last 75 years in the US have been pretty good for the Jewish community. To us, 75 years is the blink of an eye in our long history.
I'm done hearing this argument. Yes, we should not forget our past to be sure. But, at the same time people who keep harping about and demanding special privileges because of things they never lived through is just ridiculous.
Here I am “saluting” at the arch of Titus.
Aaand, case in point.
The Arch of Titus was built in 71 AD (1949 years ago) to commemorate Rome putting down an armed Jewish rebellion. Do you see Romanians or Bulgarians flipping off Trajan's Column (which commemorates the Dacian wars)? Do you see Iraqis and Iranians flipping off the Arch of Septimius Severus (which commemorates Roman victories over the Parthians)? What about French flipping off the Arch of Augustus? The Romans built dozens if not hundreds of arches, columns, etc. commemorating military victories over pretty much everyone they ever met. And you're claiming historical anti-semitism because they made one when they put down a revolt that lasted half a decade, and trying to win pity points for it 2 millennia later? You're the one who needs to be flipped off Mr. Weinstein.
I wouldn't even flip off a British statue commemorating their people in the American War for Independence, and that was only 250 years ago; and I have ancestors who fought in that war.
There are Southerners whose ancestors fought in the Civil War who show more respect for statues of Union leaders, and that was 150 years ago. In fact I'd go so far to say that if a Southerner flipped off the Lincoln Memorial Weinstein and his buddies would think it rather uncouth and disrespectful.
That tweet says more about Weinstein and his mental state than any of the so-called "extremists" he's lambasting.
Exactly. I read someone musing about that comment and wondering whether Eric has a problem with Catholic grudges against Jews for Christ given that it's apparently acceptable to hold an ethnic grudge for 2000 years.

He has been doing a lot of kvetching as well recently. It seems this is the straw that broke the camel's back for him too.

Any jew that goes on about muh six gorillion in 2021 is doing it solely for attention and they can fuck off.
The small hat cries out in pain as he sends his multi-cultural attack dogs to cave your head in.
