Yeah, well, I’ve been **banned** from Stormfront! (There was this forum raid in like 2005…)

Yeah, she might be a racist, but I think you’ll find you aren’t very far apart in your views; based on what you’ve written, she’s likely just a bit more honest about them.

Ahh, elected Jews. The OP made it sound more like a behind-the-scenes Jewish Illuminati running NYC; not Jewish mayors.

He meant “run _in_ New York City.” Have you ever seen the New York Marathon? 90% of the runners are Jewish professionals – dentists, accountants, violin players – who train on weekends. They find it’s a great way to channel all that famous nervous energy, and work off the bagel pounds.

(yes, I kid)

We were using the same computer and I checked the ‘History’ (for my own stuff) and found hers. When I say that Jews run NYC I don’t mean it in any formal sense, I just mean that many (or most) of the people in the higher levels of government and business are Jewish, mostly secular I think. It’s not a bad thing, there’s nothing nefarious going on. In fact, the cities’ success is due largely to their competence and good moral character.

Now, you see, that’s the exact opposite of what I think. It’s the type of idiocy you’ll find at a place like Stormfront. You’ve missed the nuance of my argument.

Please don’t. Even “positive” stereotypes are really demeaning.

Are you going to argue that even positive feelings and admiration for the Jewish peoples and their traditions is… what? Anti-semitic? That’s idiocy, imo.

Um, I don’t remember saying any of that. You didn’t say you admire our traditions. I admire the traditions of lots of other cultures, too. You said Jews are competent and of good moral character. Those are individual traits you are assigning to a group of people just because of what ethnic background/religion they have. You can’t make those assumptions about an individual- positive or negative- based on their membership in a group. Bernie Madoff, anyone?

And where did I say it was anti-semitic? I said it’s demeaning (or patronizing) for someone to think they know about my “good moral character” because I’m Jewish. I don’t think it’s that hard to understand why even having positive stereotypes can be frustrating (You’re Asian, must be good in math! Pick the black guy for our team, he must be a good athlete!).

Since you must believe I’m competent and have good moral character you should just take my word for it, right?
