This kind of talk used to be a lot more common in our grandparents' time. It's sad to see the best and the brightest of our times going back to it.

You mean the talk that got us all out rights and freedoms? You know, like what started 250 years ago this year, and everyone has taken for granted to the point that it’s all just quietly being slipped out from under people who have no understanding for the value and contract of things??

Your point is that the rhetoric of the late 1800s running into WWII was, by far, the worst thing that happened during that time period, just like now?

I emphatically disagree.

However, there was widespread vilification of cephalopods on all sides of multiple wars during that time period:

(To be clear, I don’t hate any sea creatures.)


I sincerely apologize to any cephalopods I may have harmed or emotionally injured with my irresponsible association with the Kushners and their ilk. I hope to mend the trust and friendship with all my fellow creature on earth that are all equally a victim of the Kushners and their like.

You mean when the industrial revolution put a lot of people out of work, and lowered living standards for most workers?

Gee, I wonder what could be happening that's similar to that.


Our grandparents were right, and right to say this.

I think parent poster is implying that the language is directed at or about Kushner's Jewish ethnicity.

Which I don't think is the intent of anybody in this thread. We're just talking about them being privileged and rich.

I do think it's important to avoid accidental or deliberate anti-Semitism when talking here though. Epstein and Kushner being Jewish has zero to do with their vileness, but for a segment of the population it's all too easy to unconsciously (or worse, consciously) make a linkage between old vile anti-Semitic conspiracy theories about Rothschilds or whatever.


It's rather odd that you good-boy with all the many points (we know you like your "karma") immediately jump to associating jews with evil and vile people like Kushner and his type.

There are many jews who are opposed to vile creatures like him and his ilk. Yet here we are with you immediately associating evil, vile people with jews even though no one but you mentioned jews.

Seriously, what makes you do that? He is surrounded by many non jews, he is trying to manipulate many non-jewish corrupt and rotten organized criminals, aka the Albanian government, he is associated with the most vile Sykes-Picot finger puppets ... and you immediately think "he's talking about the jews"???

Seriously, have you allocated some intellectual resources to working through that neurosis?


lmao, every. single. time.

Criticise a jewish person for something completely unrelated: infinite amount of green accounts created on the spot come in and start vaguely referencing "ThE DaRkEsT TiMe In HiStOrY".


<500 karma account throwing stones in glass houses.

I raised concerns about your framing, and I think you'll find I'm not a green account. By far.

Please don't drag this forum down. With my own opinions... I wouldn't complain about "Class War" language, but your posts concern me.


> <500 karma account throwing stones in glass houses.

If my 15k karma account wasn't banned I'd happily use it. I rotate new accounts every few months now, it's much more convenient


OP did say “his kind”, leaving it as an exercise for the reader

So I talk about vile evil people doing destructive, greedy, and rapacious things and you immediately think "he's talking about the jews!"?

Why is that? Have you ever thought about why you do that?


You’re hilarious

It would indeed be surprising to hear people say this if you completely ignore the words and actions of the Epstein class and the overwhelming amount of pain and suffering they afflict on everyone else.
