About as long as jews can blame the holocaust. It wasn't just slavery...asshole..it was jim crow and the BLACK CODES as well. I hate sorry mofos like you.
You are missing his point. You have to move on and be successful. People can't just keep wasting time about the past when there is a future load of problems coming at you.
Jews haven't moved on from the holocaust...they're just white now. Bernie Madoff just sent a whole shit-load of them back a few steps. Nobody is "waisting time" about the past..that sounds like some redneck shit right there.
Most jews were white before the holocaust so that white comment doesn't make sense. A lot of the Jews that were affected by the holocaust are dying of old age along with the men and women who survived WW2 in modern time. They are slowly moving on. I barely ever hear about the holocaust until ww2 is mentioned. Most countries really didn't care about the Jews. England declared war because of poland. Russia declared war because germany betrayed them and we got bomb by the japs. I mean poland got hit the hardest and they have moved on quite a bit. I don't understand the point of Madoff. Lastly, not redneck crap. Just a concern over the future.
You're crazy as hell.. Not too many white folks considered Jews to be white before( or after) the holocaust. When the Jews occupied America's ghettos they did the same stupid shit you see happening today..even WORSE. They not only brought with them an entire CRIMINAL INFRASTRUCTURE from Europe...but they created criminals that we still recognize to this very day: Meyer Lansky Bugsy Seagal Legs Diamond Dutch Schultz..aka Arthur Fleggenheimer Moe Dalitz Longy Zwillman Arnold Rothstien Louis Lepke Buchalter Gabe Rellis Irving Wexler aka Waxey Gordon Lefty rosenthal Gurrah Shapiro ect ect ect Those are just a few I knew off the bat... These gangsters pimped their "own women" from Tel Aviv to Timbuktu..murdered their "own people" in drive-by's...home-invasions...stray bullets..they sold drugs to "their own people"..not to mention kidnapping and shake-downs that victimized anybody with a fucking job. The Jewish community was so crime ridden..so vile..that they created criminals that people know by NAME 70 years later...MOST of these vandals hurt their OWN PEOPLE. Name ONE Black criminal that people will be talking about 70 years from now. Italians and even Irish were not considered white until Blacks started moving in from the south. A whole LOT of jewish success is attributed to white skinned privalege and a shit load of skullduggery.:smt039..shit Blacks could never get away with. You'd be surprised how many synagogues were built with drug money.
I know that it wasnt just slavery fool! I know about Jim crow and Black codes. But the reason I mentioned slavery was because a couple of people on the thread mentioned slavery.And it is the most often used reason for Black people not succeding. Also, the black people in the Caribbean did not face Jim crow or Black codes...Black people constitute more than just Black Americans.Dont feel sorry for me because I am probably a lot smarter than your one dimensional ass...
And all of those people were wrong. white Italians and white Irish are white and so are many of the white jews. The anglo saxons confused ethnicity and race back then. Just because you celebrate a different religion does not mean you are of a different race.
Jews didnt suddenly become succesfull because they were considered white.What an idiot you are. Have you seen the amount of nobel prizes they have won.Read this you simpleton: You will see they were winning nobel prizes in 1905...Were they considered white then? http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/Judaism/nobels.html
not sure why anyone bothers responding to the guy lol guess at the end of the day, he gets his cyber-jollies by being a fool online
Bitch you brought up caribbean Blacks to say they were not subject to Jim Crow and the Black codes..all I did was point out that they aren't doing to well either.
Wow, that's a complete misunderstanding of the history of race in the United States. They didn't "confuse race and ethnicity back then". Race was and is a social construct. It's not based in science, although there were many pseudo science justifications used for racism. During WWII, jewish people petitioned the world to be defined as a race so that the world would better understand that genocide was taking place. When flaming talks about people "becoming white" that is absolutely accurate. White has always been defined in this country as the entitled group. Irish were initially excluded ("white irish are white" -- as opposed to black irish, who aren't white? Of course they are). The first slave ships brought over irish slaves. Irish people were segregated from "white" people. Today's understanding of "whiteness" is more "open tent" but it is no more scientifically accurate. If it were, biracial people would be considered white. Jewish people have *not* gotten past the holocaust, nor should they. The phrase most used in the community is "never forget". If you're going to learn from the people, that's the first thing to learn. There's a lot of flame-hate in this thread, but his understanding of the history of race, as he has posted here, is dead on correct. And his point about madoff went over people's heads, but was correct as well: the Jewish community was hit hard by the Madoff scandal, as he robbed individual regular jewish people, jewish leaders, jewish insitutions, jewish charities and some individually wealthy jewish people as well. Not all of Madoff's victims were jewish, but he hit jewish people hard.
