Black Lives Matter’s Jewish Problem – In Their Own Words
2020-08-16
[IsraelTimes] "There is a difference between Black Lives Matter and the Movement for Black Lives," is the argument that is often made. However,
a woman is only as old as she admits...
it seems that the only people making that argument are non-BLM members. Personally, I have never heard that argument coming from anyone from BLM or M4BL, and that’s probably because it isn’t true. Not only is the argument not true, the organizers of both entities make it clear that they are connected to every ’liberation’ group that is aligned with their values. The very concept of intersectionality is that our struggles for justice connect us to a larger, interdependent struggle against issues like white supremacy
...the pernicious doctrine that laws were intended to be obeyed, that society works better when people don't pour shreiking from their places of worship every Friday for a weekend of rioting over insults real or imagined; and that cannibalism, beastiality, incest, murder, theft, rape, and similar activities are bad. A Dead White European (which invalidates his opinion) philosopher once opined that societies thrive when a person's word can be relied upon, and that a society which puts individual happiness first will invariably fail. Strangely enough, other successful societies, such as China, Japan, Korea, and those kinds of places could also be lumped with white supremacist societies, since they push the same values...
. There is no evidence to suggest that BLM chapters do not share M4BL’s goals, but there is plenty of evidence to suggest they are one and the same.

#5   All they know is the stereotype of Jewish slumlords who made a mint off them, most of whom are not Jewish.

Fixed it for you, Elmung Hatrack5948. What they actually know is the Nation of Islam anti-Jewish propaganda that has added to all the previous layers of anti-Jewish propaganda going back to the Classical Greeks.

As it happens, in the early days of our marriage Mr. Wife and I bought several small properties and fixed them up for rentals, happily working evenings and weekends around our day jobs. Mr. Wife wanted to use the construction skills that had paid his way through college, and I thought it romantic to be his unskilled apprentice. We were members of the local real estate investors association for the better part of a decade, enjoying the speakers, networking, and the group discounts; I was the only Jew among the several hundred members, though Cincinnati has an active Jewish community that matches the national average of 1.5% of the population.

#4  Jewish people laughed and laughed as BLM used this exact same rhetoric against whites. Now the monster has turned on them and suddenly they're not laughing any more.

And calling them anti-Semitic doesn't work the way it did on whites. Blacks have no guilt about being the perpetrators of the Holocaust like whites do. All they know is the slumlords who made a mint off them.

#3  Let me know when American Jews cease to give them 70% of their vote.

Until then, I can only assume they're fine with all this.

#2  Is there any point at which we stop accommodating BLM? We're already kneeling for the nation anthem, re-writing American history, defunding police departments, and picking candidates solely on the basis of race. Making antisemitism official policy can't be far behind.

#1  Liberal US Jews voted for this. And now they are complaining about it.
