Melech 9,900 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 It's obviously a tweet from just 1 person, which is why its honestly ridiculous to apply it to 3 million or whatever # of people I don't think anyone that is not just searching to confirm their own thoughts would ever rationally come to that conclusion I think you are over-reacting/estimating Lego's power of persuasion You don't know her. She always posts shiit like that. I never knew that a tweet like that deserves an own thread. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hmm 979 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 The laughable bit is how she justifies it as 'somebody told me', as if she tweets everything that people tell her Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melech 9,900 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Tell that to Ethiopian Jews and other African immigrants and Mizrahi parents whose kids were kidnapped to be adopted by "white" Ashkenazi Jews. This story was reported by all mainstream media and it was all over twitter, you need to check what propaganda means.http://www.frontpagemag.com/2014/dgreenfield/10000-black-palestinians-struggle-with-racism-in-gaza/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing how you have nothing to say about this woman. Well you were off topic now too :p Well, i already stated my opinion about racism several times. So it's quite obvious that I don't support that racism in that tweet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItsTommyBitch 12,640 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 You don't know her. She always posts shiit like that. I never knew that a tweet like that deserves an own thread. You're personal beef with her doesn't dismiss her entirely reputation People literally make threads over individual pop star tweets and they don't always get closed and this is sort of political, so I don't see the problem with it personally. Lemme leave this messy thread anyway though 私自身もこの世の中も誰もかれもが, どんなに華やかな人生でも, どんなに悲惨な人生でも, いつかは変貌し, 破壊され、消滅してしまう. すべてがもともとこの世に存在しない一瞬の幻想なのだから Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemme leave this messy thread anyway though Come talk about Eurovision and how superior Madonna and Sweden are with me I don't think anybody with any common sense would jump to the conclusion that a person in a position of power who made a racist joke represents the entirety of the nation, particularly one that represents a group so often the victim of major racist incidents worldwide.

The rest as I see it is a misunderstanding (and I've already mentioned my views of how in the other thread, everyone is so eager to misinterpret in order to prove their own point) about specifics. I can definitely see how it can be interpreted as being that view, but I highly doubt that anybody would literally believe every Israeli to be racist.
