Why do people persecute the Jews?
    #7802003 - 12/26/07 08:42 PM (16 years, 1 month ago)

i've always had friends call other friends "a Jew" or "Jewish" as an insult but i never understood why. they never called them "christains" or "mormons" as insults.

why would people today be against Jews? i never even see them.

You mean they interchange Jew with asshole or fuckwad or something? Or they call someone a Jew when they exhibit small signs of stereotypical Jewish behavior?

I can see being called a Jew because you won't throw in 5$ for a sack or something like that, but if it's being used as a non-specific insult then that's just pretty stupid.

just because. I can't really explain why.

I stopped calling people jews for fun at the end of 8th grade I believe. After that it got sort of stupid.

People aren't actually against jews when they say that. It's most likely purely sarcastic. Unless you have some nazi friends?

"Jew" as an insult is generally used to mean "stingy," as Jews are generally conceived as being very tight with money. I only use it in that sense with a Jewish friend of mine, because he knows I don't take that stereotype seriously, even though he fits it pretty well.

I think a lot of the Jewish stereotypes come from the Rothschild family in Europe, and their banking dynasty.

Cuz we all know how fun old fashion persecution is, and a nice crucification once in a while to lighten the mood.  :thumbdown:


Seriously tho, it is a very fucked up and highly debated topic.  A nation is never truly a nation until it has a common enemy.  This unites the people towards a common goal.  When a person goes looking for a scapegoat, a Jew would be an obvious choice.  Mainly because their beliefs are much different than most.  Not to mention the fact that, they are usually very successful.  In groups or individual. 

This makes them perfect targets.  Unfortunatly.

I think I have a more clear idea of why the Palestinians hate the Jews.

^^^^
I really don't know, I guess because their religion supports prosperity. They like to spread the prosperity and usually keep it in the family. Just like anyone else would, only with Jews theres just a shitload of really really successful Jews. More so than most races idk why.




The Palestinians want a home, just like the Jews did. The Jews got what they wanted, the Palestinians didn't.

I have a Jewish friend and he is totally stingy as well. We can be out at dinner and there's three of us and the bill comes to $30 and I say, "Let's just all throw $10 down and a few bucks for the tip". But, he insists on counting things down to the last penny and it's simultaneously hilarious and annoying.

I remember hearing that a particular branch of Jews from a specific region has significantly above-average IQ's in comparison to other ethnic groups. Maybe this has something to do with it?

The Jews that I've come into contact with seem to fall into one of following two categories:

1. Totally friendly and cool people.

2. Clannish, weird, and annoying.

I don't know about that, there are a lot of poor Jews in the US, in Israel, and in Russia. Most Jews are not successful, just like any other race. I don't have any numbers on how many Jews are successful either, so I wouldn't try to figure it out anyway.

I don't know.

I always thought people didn't like Jews because,

A) They killed Jesus.
B) They require their own country.

I've had a few Jew friends. None of them seemed really stingy at all.

I DID have one Jew boss once who was an asshole (and an accountant... go figure) but I've had a lot of non-jewish bosses who acted the same so it's not like I can really say shit. That boss was the closesy to living the Jewish culture than any and even HE wasn't THAT stingly.

This is one stereotype that I find unfounded... altought I will crack a Jew joke now and then. For instance my family and I were playing monopoly this week and instead of asking "So who's the banker" I said.. "Ok.. who's the jew?" ...

I didn't think it was THAT derogatory because it was just associating jews with being accountants. And if you think about it... the % of jews in the lawyer/acocuntant community IS pretty HUGE compared to all other industries. THAT is probably one stereotype that IS somewhat true and really.... not really derogatory as there isn't anything wrong with being a lawyer or an accountant.

The Romans killed Jesus, its deeper than that. Biggest complaint I have is Jewish people complaining about the holocaust. The Japanese killed more Chinese during that time, the Germans killed more Russians. Everyone got fucked over its time to move on. That and I also strongly dislike the Israeli lobbies and ADL.
