My only exposure to Candace Owens is on these boards, but I apparently need to get out more. How did I miss the conspiracy theory that Jews were responsible for 9/11?
She honestly bonkers. She's been promoting the idea that Erika K is a mossad agent and that Israel murdered CK. This is what lead to the TP USA meltdown between Ben Shapiro and Barry Weiss, vs Megyn Kelly. These people have vast audiences. Owens is one of the top podcasters in the world at one point rivalling Rogan.
Watching some of her Erika Kirk stuff is eye opening in a Doom Thread kind of way. That's an understatement.
Calling her crazy understates her anti-Semitism. She is a hard care anti-Semite with double dose of grifting on the side.
You don’t remember the 5,000 or so Jews who stayed home from work in the WTC that day? They were given the heads up from on high. Or so goes the (conspiracy) theory.
I was in the Pentagon on 9/11 and worked with a Marine Colonel who was Jewish. He was there but must not have gotten the memo, LOL
As soon as I heard that conspiracy theory, I knew it was bonkers. No way you could get 5000 Jews to agree on anything. The fact that the theorists thought that was possible spoke volumes.
I know this is a bit off topic, but…. Why is Tommy Robinson writing for JPost? https://www.jpost.com/opinion/article-889265 Mod note: please see rslfanboy's subsequent post three posts down.
If you think Republicans have an antisemitic problem, just wait a decade or two, it will be much worse. 67% of 18 to 25 years old Republicans see Jewish people as oppressors, compared to just 9% of 65 and over. 2031339787198615729 is not a valid tweet id
Dude! Give a warning that Tommy Robinson wrote the article, I didn't want to reward that guy with a click!
Sorry. @Val, could you please add a notification to my post that they should probably read about it elsewhere and not click the link?
Yet another attack today on a synagogue: Active shooter incident at Temple Israel. Here's what we know. https://www.freep.com/story/news/lo...-israel-shooting-west-bloomfield/89119641007/ Armed man rammed vehicle into Michigan synagogue and was fatally shot by security https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation...an-active-shooter-at-a-detroit-area-synagogue
In a heartwarming case of Jewish-Muslim amity, these Jews were cheered on by thousands of Muslims on Jersey City rooftops.
I live in a bastion of antiBlack sentiment rather than an antisemitic one, but I have noticed that a lot of people I know have found a subtle way to make it known that they're Jewish. My guess is that they want to head off any uncomfortable situations that might occur by some idiot deliberately using "Jew" the wrong way, or they don't want to get sucked into a conversation about church. What's weird is, they're looking at me when they say it just like they would anyone else. I'm not the demo that's gonna give them shit for being Jewish. I'm the demo that appreciates the contributions they make by traditionally voting Dem. I do get covering all bases. I could be wrong about all of it, but it's something I think I've noticed.
There's a saying of sorts: "If you have 20 Jews in the same room, you'll have 25 different opinions."
That's interesting, but I'm not sure you're interpreting those subtle hints as intended. If I'm understanding you correctly, these are Jews subtly signalling to black people that they are Jewish. Is that correct? If that's correct, I don't think those Jews are trying to "head off any uncomfortable situations". I suspect they are trying to subtly signal that they are safe and should not be seen as a threat. In other words, they are signalling that they are a fellow minority who understands hatred and discrimination.
I should add to this that the Bloomfield Hills, Bloomfield, and West Bloomfield towns have a significant Jewish presence in general. Not good that this is happening there. Anyway, it's looking like that shooter aside there isn't any casualties.
Thank god all of the children are accounted for and safe. The security guard is in a hospital, but also will likely recover. Imagine if the synagogue didn't have security?
Yes, but not quite as "...to Black people" I said it. I am Black, and I am the person they were speaking with. It's always been a one on one discussion so you're probably right.
latest posts of Candace Owens and others are stomach turning. The US slide into full scale fascism is unreal.
