RFK Jr.'s Latest Tweet Is Being Widely Interpreted As A Nazi Dog Whistle
A tweet from the Democratic presidential candidate's account included the numbers 14 and 88 close together, evoking a known hate symbol.
...It's the culture that the haters target in this case, not their skin color. The cultural hatred dates back over a millennia. It's ingrained itself in Euro-Christian culture to a horrifying degree and while things have improved overall, we have quite a way to go.
bc jesus is not the messiah according to judaism, and also the christian church blamed jews for "murdering jesus" for friggin' centuries to justify christian persecution of jews.
this is despite the fact that according to christianity, jesus had to die for our sins, but blatant hypocrisy like that has never stopped the power-hungry, decrepit old bastards running the church from telling their followers which "heretics" they wa- I mean, "god" wants them to murder.
Atheists weren't scapegoated for centuries the way the Jewish population was. Atheism/Agnosticism also don't have cultural traditions that could be pointed to as 'different' given that most people in those camps can simply adopt the predominant cultural rituals even if they don't believe in the reasoning behind them. Openly admitting your Atheism COULD result in persecution though, and still does in some communities, especially if you previously professed belief in the major religion of your area. Apostasy is considered a capital offense in some areas.Atheists and Agnostics don't accept Jesus as the Messiah either, yet they are not persecuted or victims of hate crimes for it.
The Romans crucified Jesus, but there's no anti-Romanism.
So, what people don't want to admit is that, "They don't really know or remember. " It's a case of the Hatfields and McCoys; they don't know why they hate each other or even why they are still fighting each other. They just do it out of habit and the reason is forgotten to history. Is that about right?
How can you solve anti-Semitism if you don't even know the reason for it?
First, Christianity and Islam both have their share of bigots who hate everyone who doesn't belong to their own religion. (Other religions have people like this too, but not nearly as many.)Atheists and Agnostics don't accept Jesus as the Messiah either, yet they are not persecuted or victims of hate crimes for it.
There actually is (some anti-Catholic conspiracy theories link it to the Roman Empire), but the fact that there's not nearly as much of it as there is anti-Semitism is related to what people have been saying.The Romans crucified Jesus, but there's no anti-Romanism.
"Judeo-Christian", like "Jews are white," is another concept that has existed for about two hours. For pretty much all modern history, Christendom existed in total and deliberate contrast to Jewry.Why do Jewish people, after all these centuries, still not believe in Jesus? It seems to me like if they believe the entirety of the Old Testament, it would be a small, easy leap of faith to believe in the New Testament. Jewish and Christian are even paired together today in the term "Judea-Christian". Why is it so difficult for Jews to accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior when Jesus himself was Jewish?
And why do Palestinians want to wipe Israel off the map? Where are all those Jews supposed to go?
