I’ll Go For A Hug

* Luke: “I’m going out tonight.”
Friend: “Don’t be yourself. Make believe you are somebody else.”

Miriam Lilian D Or: Whenever you show empathy, I worry thinking something may be wrong with you.

* Friend: What are your goals in this?
Luke: I think I’ll go for a hug.

* Instead of texting with my partner aka bittul Torah, I will send her photos of sforim I’m studying.

* Converting Sephardi. Is that like becoming black?

* I remember the early 90s, when the primary concern of White “conservatives” was fighting abortion everywhere, not securing our borders. Why should whites get all uppity about what blacks choose to do with their own bodies, abort or whatnot. Put down your white racist privilege!

* I ran into some bums (not literally, I did not touch them) and I still can’t get their stink out of my nostrils.

* UPDATE: The bums insisted on shaking my hand. I head to the kitchen to disinfect and the bums follow me for the free coffee and they catch me pouring detergent all over my hands and so I explain how sweaty I get at work, and just when I think they’re leaving, they insist on coming back and shaking my hand again, and I have to get up before I touch anything else and delouse again.

* I accused my mate down under of not being multi-cultural. He said: “I am multi-cultural like the ancient Romans. I don’t care about your race or religion, but if you want to live among us, you have to follow our rules, just like everyone else, respect our customs and mores, and go to our courts, not have your own judicial system and your own courts and punishments.”

* Miriam Lilian D Or: “I will not be voting for him [Trump]. Usually, I vote republican. But, this man should have started with local politics first. He needs to politically refine himself. I agree with the things he has said about illegal immigrants and Mexico. But, he is not tactful in how he expresses himself and constantly puts himself in controversy because of his lack of political savvy. We need a president with more political experience and who won’t have to be correcting his faux pas. Basically, learn how to avoid being misquoted. Yelling “you’re fired” on reality shows does not correlate to going on diplomatic trips with our foreign partners. He would only end up being a liability and an embarrassment. It was fun while it lasted, but it’s over. Time to spend time on more serious contenders.”

* When you have a pilot flying you across country, do you want someone who is chewing the fat before the flight with all the passengers, or someone who is at the cockpit, studying and getting ready for the flight?

* A friend is concerned by his unnecessary tension patterns. I said: “Dude, look on the bright side. You walk around prepared at any moment to enter into a wrestle.”

* Note to self: Never tell anyone whose dad is in military intelligence: “Your mom is hot!” WASPs don’t appreciate it.

* If you tend to under-earn and to under-value yourself, know that this tendency is progressive, will isolate you, and may well kill you. But God wants you to be happy, joyous and free.

* I ask my brother if he’s been on any exciting dates lately.
Bro: “I just bought a used forklift.”

* Can a goy take a Jew to a Beit Din (Jewish law court)?

* I try to explain to my mate down under what a “Beit Din” (Jewish law court) is.
Mate: “So if we one Jew rips off another Jew, they can go to this court?”
Luke: “Yes.”
Mate: “They must be pretty busy.”

* If you don’t want to put your hand over your heart during the National Anthem, if you don’t want to celebrate Thanksgiving and the Fourth of July as American holidays, please leave America.

The Hasidic Underclass

JewAmongYou blogs:

My daughter works at a medical office in a heavily Hassidic area. Her daily experiences reveal disturbing trends within a community that most Americans associate with solid values. By and large, we Jews are known for our emphasis on education. This reputation is fairly accurate but, amongst many Hassidim, “education” is only important in the religious realm. When it comes to secular knowledge, and practical skills, ignorance often rules.

I was sitting at the front desk of the doctor’s office when Hassidic gentleman of about 30 walked in. I recognized him and I’m acquainted with his family; he was born in the U.S. and has lived here his entire life. I gave him a form to fill out that would provide us with vital demographic information. He had no idea how to fill it out because he could not read it, nor could he write even a simple sentence in English. He was fluent only in Yiddish. I was forced to call his wife and have her dictate to me whatever information was needed. When I finished speaking with her, I asked him to sign his name at the bottom and he painstakingly copied each letter from his printed name. This was his “signature”.

Many Hassidic couples appear to have litters of kids. Some as many as many as 18, all with the same woman. These families invariably depend on welfare to survive. Like so many NAM’s, they breed like there is no tomorrow. I’ve heard from both my daughter and my son that it is very common for Hassidic children to be ignorant of basic safety rules of the road; they walk out into traffic without even looking. Perhaps this is to offset their high birthrate – a “late-term abortion” if you will. This may provide entertainment for many anti-Semitic drivers – a kind of real-life “Carmageddon” – but I seriously shudder to think of the implications.

Will The Democrats Ever Nominate Another White Man For President?

Steve Sailer writes: “Bernie Sanders then got hooted for being old and white. By the way, the interviewer on stage with O’Malley and Sanders getting no respect either from the furious blacks is the media’s favorite pseudo-Mexican illegal immigrant Jose Antonio Vargas. (After all these decades, the media has never been able to find an articulate Mexican illegal immigrant, so they’ve adopted a gay Filipino with a Spanish name as their stand-in.)”

Comments to Steve Sailer:

* It’s becoming clear that blacks are the straw that stirs the drink in the Democrat-left sector of political life.

* Agree, it’s delightful to watch the loathsome progressives devour each other on video. If only the Stupid Party would take advantage of it.

* Bernie Sanders being from Vermont has never spoken in front of a large crowd as Black as the one in Phoenix. He has been sheltered from the Black racial demographic his entire life.

Even Jared Taylor has more experience than Bernie Sanders when it comes to speaking in front of an audience that has a large Black component.

Jared Taylor has had racial debates with many Black college students. Of course he did with lots of security surrounding so that none of the Black college students would start charging at him Michael Brown style.

* How honest and refreshing that African Americans will assert publicly without equivocation that yo’ white ass don’t matter. If only whites could achieve that same level of childlike candor when it comes to race.

* Blacks in the U.S have adopted Adolf Hitler style Nazi racist attitudes. By disagreeing with All Lives Matter and only agreeing that Black lives matter, they are basically adopting the mentality that Blacks are the master race just like Hitler thought Germans were the master race. I am sure the late Adolf would also disagree with the All Lives Matter slogan.

Most African Americans believe that Asian lives and White lives are inferior to Black lives, which is no different from Adolf Hitler’s belief that Jewish lives were inferior to German Gentile lives.

If you do not believe that All Lives Matter, than you are a sick twisted Human Being with no heart. Blacks are taking racial tribalism to a very dark sick twisted place.

* Maybe African Americans believe their financial situation will get a lot better if people with Spanish last names end up outnumbering people with WASP last names in this country. You know because that has worked out so well for Blacks in Latin America.

* Ridiculous stunts like this reinforce my growing belief that a lot of the SJW nonsense is being pushed by wealthy people and groups who want to stop class solidarity among working Americans by dividing people on the basis of race and gender.

From the 1960s onward, the wealthy have been the only real beneficiaries of the “New Left”, or whatever else it’s been called since then. Abandoning working-class and middle-class solidarity in favor of identitarianism has been a political and moral disaster. And both the original New Left and their successors today on Twitter and Tumblr were basically a bunch of spoiled brats.

* John McCain called Donald Trump supporters a bunch of crazy people. Why are Donald Trump supporters crazy? Because they want to see immigration levels in this country reduced and want to secure our border. John McCain is a shill for cheap 3rd world labor.

On Fox And Friends last night they reported that the U.S government lets in over 120,000 Muslim immigrants into the U.S every year. And people wonder why homegrown Islamic terrorism on U.S soil is becoming more common.

Why do we need that many Muslims entering the U.S every year? What not enough Falafel restaurants in this country? John McCain talks about how he is concerned about radical Islam becoming a growing threat on U.S soil, but yet he never points the blame on our country’s disastrous immigration system that lets in so many immigrants from Muslim countries who hate America.

* Crises make ‘radical’ things possible. During crises, a ‘nobody’ can become somebody. If Hitler, Mussolini, or Mao were around today, they would come nowhere near power as the System is so stable. They thrived on Crises and moved to the top.

Jews rule America. And as long as US is stable, Jews will continue to rule since they have a lock on the System. And for there to be stability in America, the White Core has to remain at the center of America. Black America is unstable. So is Hispanic America, with all the illegals and crime and corruption. It is the White Core that keeps America stable. This is good for Jews, and it is bad for Alternative Right since the AR will gain a chance only in times of crisis. The current System has no room for the Alt Right as long as bulk of white core feels content.

But if the White Core collapses, then US will lurch into crisis mode, and then all bets are off. The System will no longer have a solid white core to rely on. Everything will be up for grabs, and even Alt Right will get to play in the new radical politics.

In a way, Jews are right to see whites as the main rivals to their power. But Jews fail to see how valuable the White Core is to the sustainability of the System that favors and supports Jewish power. When the White Core collapses–and the greatest threat is Section 8–, then whites will grow angry and desperate, and then there’s no telling what will happen.

* The thing that’s weird about the “Black Lives Matter” campaign is that, evidently, the only thing that makes a black life matter is being killed by a white person.

Black person killed by white police officer or armed white person– Matters a lot!!
Black person killed by black person — Ho hum, move along, nothing to see here.

Isn’t that an implicit salute to White Supremacy, that the only thing that makes a black life matter is that a white has ended it?

More Comments:

* This is not a made up story for the sake of a comment. It happened yesterday.

This week in a nearby city that is the source of our local news, a white high school boy was murdered by a black teen. The white was being mugged and he resisted. His brother was with him and knew the black. The black teen shot him in the chest with a pistol because he resisted. He died shortly after in the hospital.

So my wife had to have the “Talk” with our little blond 8 year old girl. My wife didn’t mean to have this talk. But the story was there and the kid didn’t understand it and asked the question.

She asked “What is mugged?”

My wife said, “When someone tries to rob you using physical force or the threat of violence, often involving a weapon.”

She asked, “And the boy that was killed resisted?”

My wife said, “Yes.”

And this 50 pound blond, blue eyed little girl who lives in a safe small town, practically void of threat because it is white, asked, “If I get mugged should I not resist?”

And my wife answered, “No, especially if it a black person. They often seek humiliation and dominance as the reason for mugging, and if you deny them what they seek, they think so little of you and your white body, that they will kill you.”

This girl needn’t have ever been aware that such possibilities existed, and now she does, and now she has a fear that she never would have had to have if there were no black bodies that present a real threat to her white body, a far greater threat than some woman “shoving” her.

* Ta-Nehisi Coates was born in 1975, yet you would think he was born in 1925 with his constant ranting about being racially oppressed by White people his entire life. Jim Crow laws were already obsolete by the time he was born. This guy graduated from high school the same year that Bill Clinton was sworn into the oval office. He is from the 1990s MTV/gangsta rap generation yet he talks like someone who graduated from high school the same year that Jackie Robinson entered the MLB.

* It is also interesting how Coates and people like him lament American society treating him and his progeny as though they aren’t full participants in our culture but don’t seem to make the connection to that in the way Coates so often signals he doesn’t want to fully participate in that culture himself – such as through kids being given names like “Samori” that indicate a conscious effort to draw a line between the mainstream and his household, his stated preference for living amongst blacks, and so on.

Praying For Abortionists

The Christian approach seems naive.

Few Jews I know, or even know of, spend time praying for their enemies. Jews seem to have fewer scruples about hating their enemies while Christians seem to feel compelled to try to love their enemies.

How’s that working out?

Driving Through Beverly Hills On A Tuesday Morning

Driving by Beverly Hills High School this morning, I saw a patriotic Mexican-American alleviating the dire effects of the drought by watering a tree from a public sidewalk with his own pee. His strong steady stream contrasted sharply with the drizzle of sclerotic old white men. As the sunlight bounced off the Mexican’s whizz, I saw a vision of the USA in 100 years as an outpost of Mexico.

What’s The Intellectual Condition Of Orthodox Judaism?

Ezra Glinter writes for the Forward about Marc B. Shapiro’s new book Changing the Immutable: All this could make for a hearty polemic against the Orthodox scholars, publishers and editors who are more concerned with enforcing ideological conformity than with dealing with historical truth. Yet for all his provocative material, Shapiro is no polemicist. Although he compares Orthodox censorship with the Soviet kind — “what was accepted as fact one day could be entirely rewritten the next” — he also shows how its practice is consistent with classical and medieval conceptions of historical truth that predate contemporary notions of academic scholarship.
So, too, Shapiro goes out of his way to show that censorship of Jewish texts isn’t just an Orthodox practice. In many cases, non-Haredi publishers have been guilty of similar distortions, sometimes out of concern for what liberal readers might think. Finally, in the last chapter of the book, Shapiro examines the concept of lying in Jewish law, and shows how some authorities believed it permissible to lie in order to encourage obedience to rabbinic leadership. Shapiro warns us that these examples might be shocking, but he often seems to be defending Orthodox censorship by showing its consistency with traditional practice. Maimonides himself warns, in the introduction to his “The Guide for the Perplexed,” that not everything he wrote was the pure truth, but was still a “necessary belief” for the masses.
Shapiro’s evenhanded, evidence-heavy approach will perhaps make the book more convincing to its detractors. But his argument could also have benefited from a more critical thrust. Although he claims that censorship has increased in recent decades, he does little to analyze the causes or consequences of this phenomenon. In a recent interview with radio host Zev Brenner, he noted that part of the rise in censorship is due to so many more books being published and to older books being reset, and in “Changing the Immutable” he notes the rise in Orthodox publishing for a nonscholarly readership, including many works of biography and history.
But he doesn’t go far enough in examining what role Haredi fundamentalism may have to play, and whether current Orthodoxy is more or less inclined to censor texts than Jewish communities of the past were. The phrase “ da’as Torah ” — an arguably contemporary notion that implies obedience to rabbinic authority independent of halachic justification — appears just once in the book, and is explained only in a footnote. And although Shapiro does address the particular role translation plays in censorship, he does little to address the phenomenon of increased Haredi literacy, whether through access to yeshiva education, English translations by publishers like ArtScroll or the return of Hebrew as a vernacular language in the State of Israel. Most noticeably lacking is any consideration of the effect that censorship has had on the Orthodox community itself. If Orthodox censorship is comparable to the Soviet variety, what does that say about the intellectual conditions of Orthodox life?

Orthodox Judaism’s Tortured Relationship with Facts

Frum Satire: Look, we’re not children anymore, let’s not pretend that Orthodoxy’s mesorah which goes back to Moshe Rabbainu is any less crooked than the Tail of the Dragon and let’s not pretend it doesn’t have a proportionately equal number of annual casualties. Those casualties usually come, like those at the Tail, from those who love it most, who take it seriously and who therefore throw their lives into it.

One needn’t go further back in history than the past fifteen years when The Making of a Godol was banned because it told stories about the previous generation of gedolim that were true but which would have either unmade their godol status or it would have shown sincere young bochurim that they can read Anna Karenina during their lunch break between first and second seder and then grow up to be like R’ Yaakov Kamenetzky. Likewise Natan Slifkin’s books were banned, not because anyone could dispute what he wrote but precisely because they couldn’t dispute him, which should be obvious; obviously you don’t need to ban a book you can dismiss.

So the Orthodox Created the Past in Their Image
But what about books we can’t dismiss or ban? What’s to be done about those?

Look, we’re not children anymore, we don’t have to pretend that the Inquisition invented censorship and book banning. Luckily we live in the 21st century in a free country where a brilliant professor of Judaic studies has the liberty to research historical acts of Jewish censorship going all the way back to Chazal editing the Torah! Marc B. Shapiro expertly lays out the history of Rashi’s explanation of this Talmudic censorship of the chumash (Bereishis 18:22) and ArtScroll’s censorship of this Rashi.

Steve Sailer: David Frum Denounced for Not Taking Serena Williams Wholly on Faith

Steve Sailer writes: “Last week David Frum was widely denounced for reacting to a New York Times article about Serena Williams’ late career resurgence to Barry Bonds-like dominance (and how her rivals are hamstrung by society’s outmoded body image prejudices that discourage them from bulking up like Serena does) with bemused skepticism rather than with the conventional hosannas for Serena’s strength and feminine beauty.”

Comments to Steve Sailer:

* Blacks and doping. Isn’t it overkill since blacks are naturally more muscular to begin with?

If a Chinese female tennis player suddenly bulked up, people would notice.

People notice less with blacks since it’s well understood that blacks are more athletic and powerful.

But with Serena, it’s getting to be a bit too much… as with Ben Johnson.

* Is there a pattern here? Frum advocates against mass immigration. It’s tough to denounce him on that, because the facts are obviously on his side. So the pundits wait until he stumbles on a taboo, in this case, questioning the glory of a symbol of black female achievement.

Trump advocates against mass immigration. Facts are on his side as well, so the pundits pounce on his quip about McCain, a symbol of military heroism (suffering/captivity version, rather than the ass-kicking Alvin York/Audy Murphy kind of military heroism we used to celebrate when we declared wars and won them).

* Serena uses PEDs. She is still a wonderful athlete because her rivals also use PEDS. The only advantage that she sort of has is that naive and clueless sports nerds believe that massive biceps on her could be natural because she is black and they are clueless dolts.

* Antisemite will be tough. Trump has a Jewish son-in-law and a daughter who converted to Judaism.

* A welfare state tends to work better when the whole of the population served is homogenous and in agreement that the needy should get a leg up. In a multicultural society it is inevitable that jealousies will arise and one group will feel that another group is exploiting the system.

In the US almost every single political issue is ultimately about race or ethnicity and allocation of resources.

Even Medicare, because elderly blacks probably use a disproportionate amount of the resources of the system due to inherited morbidity factors, such as a high rate of diabetes and heart disease, and Medicaid, because there are more poor blacks with disabilities. Even special education for the mentally handicapped, for similar reasons.

Health, crime, education, abortion, immigration, foreign policy, taxes, ornamental flags over state houses, drugs, defense (government employment for minorities, VA)–the controversies are all about ethnicity and who gets what is coming to them.

Another illustration of my point is that a few years ago I remember reading about a huge controversy in Northern Ireland over the location of a new hospital that was being built as part of the socialized British National Health system to serve two towns a few miles apart. If it was built in the Protestant town this unfairly discriminated against Catholic employees who had to travel further to work, and Catholic patients and their visitors for the same reason. If it was built in the Catholic town, the reverse would apply Sometimes no one can win.

When Is It OK To Make Jokes About Jews?

From Kveller:

But here’s my dilemma. I make Jewish jokes all the time.

Case in point: I was at a birthday party recently. The dad hosting the party was Jewish. We were playing on his kids’ new swing set when I asked him if he put it together himself.

He said: “No, I paid someone $100 to do it.”

I replied, “That’s what we Jews do! We pay someone to do it for us.”

This got a big laugh from him and his friends who were standing nearby. His friends weren’t Jewish. I was happy to get the laugh (as always), but it felt wrong.

When is it OK to make a joke about Jews? Jew to Jew? Jew to non-Jew? Non-Jew (married to a Jew) to a Jew? Isn’t it all wrong?
