Re: ayrt (again)

[(Anonymous)]

You may have grown up in a Jewish-influenced American culture, but on a larger scale, you've also grown up in a much older European-influenced culture that has been systematically murdering, marginalizing, demonizing, and generally discriminating against Jewish people since the Middle Ages and before.

You very well may regularly consume Jewish-made media, have been heavily influenced by Jewish culture, and harbour no ill will towards Jews as people. I don't doubt that at all, and I especially don't doubt that if you are indeed a New Yorker. However, that does not mean you can't possibly have absorbed and internalized the many harmful messages about Jews that permeate American culture (and western culture and society in general, this problem goes far, far beyond America). Enjoying a culture's media and being influenced by the trappings of a culture does not make you immune from having an unconscious bias towards the people of that culture. Because despite what you seem to be implying in the above comment, if you are not Jewish, then Jewish culture is not YOUR culture, and no matter how many Jewish influences your culture may have, no matter what the extent of those influences may be, that does not and never will grant you a "Get Out of Having Anti-Semitic Beliefs or Attitudes Free!" card.

Furthermore, if you yourself are not a Jew, you're hardly in any position to call yourself an authority on what is and is not anti-Semitic. Obviously no individual person can be the ultimate infallible authority on the topic; I certainly don't claim to be such. But in addition to actually being Jewish, I am quite well-versed in the history of anti-Semitism and I think it is safe to say that I have more knowledge than the average person when it comes to the subtler ways that anti-Semitism tends to manifest.

That fact that you're so keen to speak of cultural biases but are unwilling to admit you may have some of your own speaks volumes.

I'm done trying to reason with you. Goodnight.

Yes, because what you were doing was clearly reasoning.

Dude, what is your problem?

Re: ayrt (again)

Fine. I'll start going to shul again, convert, marry someone in the Tribe, give up pork, wear something over my hair, and devote myself to the religion I chose not to convert into the last time I was thinking about it--just so I can be Jewish enough not to win, but just to even almost be heard, in a random internet argument with what is probably a troll.

Or not.

Gevalt.
