Bigotry, Racism, Anti-Jew Hate And The Gangster Rap Blame Game

 On top of all the other things already blamed on Jews, some are now trying to blame gangster rap on Jews. Do rappers that use derogatory words have guns to their heads by Jews forcing them to say these terrible things? Are they helpless victims controlled by evil Jews? This concept of a Jew being behind everything evil is an ancient anti-Semitic trope. Grown men and women are responsible for their own actions. Blaming others, including blaming Jews, instead of taking responsibility for our own actions, keeps hate, bigotry and evil alive. If someone was harmed by an evil man that happens to be Jewish, that is a reflection of that evil man, not Jews. Demonizing all Jews based on the actions or fantasized actions of a few is as old as anti-Semitism, or Jew hatred itself. We are responsible for our own actions in life. We are not responsible for the bad things that other grown men and women choose to do when we have no knowledge or ability to stop what they are doing.. Ascribing some kind of collective responsibility and blame by virtue of race, religion or ethnicity, in which the whole group is blamed for the real or imagined actions of the few, is an ancient form of hatred and bigotry. If your own brother, sister, or other family member, went out tomorrow and started killing people without your knowledge or ability to stop it, would that make you responsible because of the family blood connection? Or because you might both be of the same race, religion or ethnicity? 

It would not.

Having  a scapegoat, having someone to blame for all the evils or perceived evils and wrongs in the world, is a human weakness, and an ancient, still going strong, form of evil.

 For every evil, racist Jew, there were and are far more Jews that do everything they can to fight racism, evil and bigotry. The bigot wants to ignore all of that. They only want a demonized Jew.

Black Is Not A Religion, Jew Is Not A Race

There are those that seek conflict between blacks and Jews, including a well known person that has made a career out of targeting, blaming and scapegoating Jews. This well known person wants blacks to be at the throats of Jews. 

There are only a few races in the world. Black people, including black people that live in the United States, are not of one religion. Black is a race, not a religion. There is enormous diversity in the cultures and religions of black people across the globe. 

Jew is not a race. Jews are a small minority population consisting of people of all races, including black, white and Asian. The majority Jewish population in Israel are of middle east and North African descent, and are brown skinned. Most black Jews are Ethiopian or are of Ethiopian descent. Smaller numbers of nonwhite Jews can be found in other countries in Africa, India, and elsewhere. The majority of Jews within the United States are white, but not all. 

Demonizing Jews is a perversion and sickness that persists to this day. The Jew hater out of their own weakness and deficiency, needs the Jew to scapegoat, demonize, target and blame. To the disgrace of the human race, Jew haters and racists are many, and many are, unfortunately, and to the detriment of all, the people that may not hate Jews or those of other races, but will not stand up against those that do. 

Ye, Jews, Bigotry, Gangster Music

 There has been a lot of responses to Ye's remarks about Jews. For many Jew haters, it is another opportunity to validate their bigotry, including by some in academia. Colleges and universities across the United States are filled with incompetent, pampered, hate filled ideologues. Too often hatred, bigotry and racism is accepted or excused as long as it comes from nonwhites. 

The Jew is often the preferred scapegoat to blame for whatever is wrong in the world. The Jew is the world's oldest scapegoat. Humankind has learned nothing from history. Not about hatred, bigotry, scapegoating, and where hate and demonizing leads. 

Scapegoating and hatred frees people from individual responsibility. Weak people especially need this. Having a target to hate and blame also makes it easier for rotten people and rotten leaders to control people, and for them to gain money and power.

When a Jew hater or anti-Semite declares how Jews think or act, it is as idiotic as stating all people think and act alike. 

Every Jew, like every human being, is a separate person. There is enormous diversity among Jews, in the way they practice or do not practice religion, in their beliefs, in their politics, in their race and skin color, in their professions, in their interests and so forth. There are black Jews, Indian Jews, Asian Jews, white Jews, Latino Jews, North African Jews, Yemenite Jews, Ethiopian Jews, Iranian Jews, Iraqi Jews, Israeli Jews, Libyan Jews, and so on. Jew is not a race. Demented Jew haters are incapable of seeing Jews as human beings. There are good Jews and there are bad Jews, just as there are good and bad whites, blacks, Latinos, Christians, Buddhists, Muslims, Hindus and so forth. But for the Jew haters, all Jews are seen through a narrow lens of hate.

If a Jew is in the music industry, and promotes music that is harmful to young people, that is a reflection on that individual. It does not reflect on the great majority of other Jews that have nothing to do with such things. There are countless Jews the world over that do their best to help others regardless of race, economic status, ethnicity and religions, and that strive as best they can to make this world a better place. But the Jew hater ignores all of that and looks for a bad apple to serve as the example for how all Jews are. 

Many Jews work as teachers, as health care professionals, in science, as engineers, as small business owners, and in many other professions where they are doing their best to help improve humanity. There will be no acknowledgment of this from the many Jew haters. They only want to see a demonized Jew.

Regarding Adidas; the history of Adidas and their founders, and their connection to Hitler, Nazis and the Nazi war machine is public information. This company especially should be at the forefront in the fight against all bigotry and racism. 

For the many non Jews that have profited from gangster music and culture, no one put a gun to their head and told them to make such harmful choices. But for the Jew hater, there is no free will.  There is no personal responsibility. There is only the Jew to blame, including for the bad choices and destructive conduct of non Jews.  

What A Jew Did In A Low Income Non-Jewish Black Community

 There are plenty of Jews in this world that are decent, hardworking people. But to the racist, bigoted Jew hater, regardless of their race or religion or the race of the Jew, the Jew can only be seen as demonic. 

There is a retired Jewish public school teacher whose only ambition was to teach in inner city schools with populations most in need. He taught in a school in one of the most crime ridden, poverty stricken communities in Chicago and United States. It was an area that included what was then the largest public housing project in the United States. 

After his day teaching in a public school, he ran an after school reading and math program funded primarily from his school teacher salary. He rented space to run the program. He provided the children and teenagers that attended the after school program with the learning materials they needed. It was a reading and math program; a ramp to lead children and youth out of poverty and into a better life. 

He ran this program for years. His brother was a cop that walked a beat in the same area. Serving communities as public servants are strong values these brothers hold. Judaism places great value on service to others, regardless of religion, ethnicity or race. 

The brothers are retired. It would be of great benefit to the world for the school teacher to be recognized and properly funded so that he can start again the Ramp, reading and math program, all over the United States and elsewhere in impoverished communities. 

Instead, he remains in obscurity.   

Lying And Deception: The Media From Top To Bottom

 There is little to no accountability in the media. Lying, twisting the truth, making up false or self serving narratives are far too common. Whether it is from people plagiarizing photos that are not theirs, and that constitute the heart of their self serving documentary, all the way to major U.S. city newspapers, with international readership.   

A reporter from a major newspaper was given information, at great risk to the careers and future of the people that provided the information, to expose wrongs the informants were led to believe were to be exposed, only to find that they were lied to and that all the reporter and the reporter's newspaper did was publish a sensationalized story that had nothing to do with what the informants risked everything to expose.

A major U.S. newspaper that has a large nationwide and international following ran a story in their Sunday magazine with made up quotes that never were uttered or written. It serves as a permanent record of lying and of fact checkers that allowed the lying. What makes it easy for media people to lie, perhaps arrogance, elitism or some other character flaw, is made easier when they know there was is no accountability for their lies. A secondary media does not exist in any meaningful way to expose the lies of the first.

The pursuit of what is sensational or tantalizing, and the endless pandering to audiences, ensures the media at large remains shallow and dishonest.

Some so called investigative journalists were given detailed information regarding deception and fraud in a well funded, well connected nonprofit organization. In the end, the story did not run, not on television, not in the printed press, because the connections of the nonprofit were able to keep the story away from the public.  Who gets to be investigated or exposed depends on power and connections. 

The hope that social media would pave the way to a new direction of truth, integrity, openness, was crushed by their censorship of that which does not suite their political or religious narratives. They lie about why they censor. They use hate and violence as an excuse to censor content that does not fit their religious or political narratives, even when the content has nothing to do with hate or violence. Theirs too is a realm of no accountability. 

The consequences are dire for any society, democracies included, when the media on all levels lacks integrity, openness, honesty, objectivity and truthfulness. 

Humaneness Or Money, Yulin Dog Eating Festival, Dog Fighting And Animal Cruelty

 I witnessed firsthand the exploitation of animal cruelty and dog fighting by a variety of people and organizations that claim to oppose animal cruelty and dog fighting. 

I saw how they exploit animal suffering in order to benefit themselves or their organizations financially and in other ways. 

There is an enormous amount of animal cruelty in this world. I do not believe the concern regarding the Yulin dog eating festival is about much more for many other than generating publicity for themselves and using the festival as an opportunity to generate more money.

There are other animals and species that no one cares about that are subject to enormous cruelty. No one shines a light or intervenes because the cruelty cannot be used as a way of generating publicity, money and profit.

People are unfortunately very selective regarding which animals they care about and which animals they could care less about, even if the cruelty for all is equal.

People and organizations follow the money trail. Where there is indifference, there is no money to be made.

Not only did I witness first hand the exploitation of animal cruelty and dog fighting, but I also witnessed the lack of efficacy, even harm at times, from a number of people and organizations that claim to speak for animals. 

I wish there was full disclosure as to how much money these organizations raise for themselves by claiming to address animal cruelty and dog fighting, and what is their actual efficacy. 

I am still waiting for the day when there is accountability regarding the efficacy and worthiness of these organizations. 

My offer to debate any of them regarding efficacy still stands.

I hope they are not as ineffective regarding Yulin as I experienced them to be for American based dog fighting and animal cruelty.

Idiocies That Drive War In General And Russia's War Against Ukraine

There is a certain percentage of the human population that wants war, suffering and killing. Some are open about their bloodlust. Others may deny having such desires, even to themselves, often believing that grievances justify killing and war.

Too many people want to hate, want to be aggrieved, and are willing to let their hate and grievances lead to violence, destruction, killing and war. 

Hate, anger and the willingness to be violent pass from generation to generation. There is no forgiveness. There is no compassion. The enemy's children are treated as the enemy itself, and are held responsible for grievances, imaginary or not, for what the enemy or enemy's ancestors may or may not have committed. New generations of children are not given fresh starts. Killing and the desire to avenge grievances, real or not, are given greater consideration than the lives and well being of the children of the enemy and that of the children on all sides. 

And so wars, hate, violence, terror, destruction and misery continues.

Dehumanizing, delegitimizing and demonizing the enemy is the start of the nightmare, and then misery, destruction, killing and war follow.

Scapegoats are used by demented or deficient people to deflect away from their own sins and deficiencies. Targeting a scapegoat enables demented, cruel and corrupt human beings, ideologies and beliefs to hold sway over vast populations of people. Scapegoating delegitimatizes and dehumanizes the targeted enemy, and paves the way for violence, killing, terror and war.

Uncontrolled hate, scapegoating, demonizing, delegitimizing and the quickness to resort to violence ensures there is no peace in the world, no true justice, no true effort to rectify or address environmental degradation, poverty, nuclear proliferation, or any of the other great threats to humanity's survival and future.

The prelude to war starts with delegitimizing, demonizing and dehumanizing entire populations of people or a UN recognized country itself. Delegitimizing and diminishing other human beings lead to violence, war and terror in which there is no regard for the lives of children, the elderly, the handicapped, the defenseless. 

The senselessness of war started by the rich and privileged, supported by brainwashed masses, destroys the lives not only of the invaded, but of the cannon fodder soldiers of the invaders, whose lives are permanently altered for the worst, assuming they survive. War profits a few while ensuring death, maiming and misery for the many.

The largest country in the world has abundant resources and agriculture. It is not overpopulated like many countries. It is rich in oil, timber, fertilizers, natural gas and other resources, yet found it necessary to invade a neighboring country for not a single reason that will ever justify this much pain, death, maiming, misery, destruction and suffering.

Humankind faces unprecedented crisis. It fails once again to mobilize around the real threats to human existence and well being, and instead diverts resources to militaries and to war. Environmental catastrophes facing humankind once again are pushed to the side and not only are ignored, but are made worse. War ensures poverty, hunger, disease, starvation, homelessness, famine, death, mutilation and misery increases in size and severity. 

After Russia's war against Ukraine and all of the other senseless, idiotic active wars end, people will find another. The vicious, insane cycle will continue. Already in other places delegitimizing, dehumanizing and demonizing are well in place, setting the stage for new rounds of hate, violence, war and misery.
