Holocaust museum opens exhibit on George Floyd’s death - Washington Examiner

A Holocaust museum in Florida opened an exhibit concerning the death of George Floyd. “We have produced this so that people can come and look these individuals in the eye. So you come face to face with people, so you can really experience the feelings that they were feeling,” said Lisa Bachman...

How does a man who died in a police action gone wrong in 2020 goes in the holocaust museum?

Because to the modern-day Intersectional Left, everything has to be all about themselves.

Trump do not try prosecute lgbt people,and there is no proof that he would try.Biden,on other hand,is supporter of dudes which burn american cities.
What is more important for you,transgender Miss America, or unburned cities ?

Tell me, which cities have been burned down?

Because Portland is supposedly one of the worst, and while there have been cases of arson (which *again* for the record I condemn), there have been no cases of a *building* burning down, much less anything that could be described as the entire city.

The Trump Administration hasn't tried to prosecute and execute LGBT people as you have argued "all Christians" should support, but they have been very aggressive in striking down a wide variety of civil rights decisions -- something I *specifically posted evidence for* the last time it was brought up.

Plenty of buildings were burned down in Minneapolis and burning cities does not neccessarily mean entire city got burned down to the ground, there is plenty of ground to cover between the Burning of Cork and the Burning of Dresden which are both refered to as city being burned down.

Hyperbole, overstatement for dramatic effect, is a normal thing in human communication. The important thing is to recognize it, and not insist on taking what is obviously hyperbolic with wooden literalness.

As a Jew, who also had some distant family members who died in the Holocaust, this disgusts me.

Okay, can you provide any information on the extent of the fires in Minneapolis? Because yes, there's plenty of ground between Cork and Dresden; but even what you just set as the low bar for that expression vastly exceeds anyone's account of Portland.

Hyperbole, overstatement for dramatic effect, is a normal thing in human communication. The important thing is to recognize it, and not insist on taking what is obviously hyperbolic with wooden literalness.

I do not in fact woodenly object to any use of hyperbole whatsoever, but I object to the amount of hyperbole when "extremely minor arson that caused trivial damage to one public statue, and completely unsuccessful attempts to set two or three buildings on fire" is described as "the city burned".

I would point out that this is not exactly a well-respected museum; it's a random no-name in Florida that originates from a community college project and puffs up its importance by saying that it's older than the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in DC.

That's reassuring.

The opression that black people face in USA is worse than Holocaust, anyone who denies it is an evil racist whitey nazi who is certainly also mysognistic, homophobic, transphobic and pedosexualphobic.

And hamster.Responsible for Black Death,who later as bad christian nazi hamster blamed it on poor rats,who had nothing to do with it.

 

[Hlaalu Agent]

That's reassuring.

Indeed it is. If that ever happened for real, I'd want to buy you a beer and console you. Because that would be seriously messed up.

Does anti semitism get linked with white collar crime or street gang crime that many associate gypsies with?

Asked in those terms, I think the answer would have to be white collar crime. The Jewish stereotype is an unethical businessman, not a street gangster. Jews are not Gypsies.

I didn't say they were. Fucking hell how does a question about anti semitism lead someone to think I'm saying Jews are Gypsies? My question on anti semitism is to ask in anti semetic line of thought Jews get associated with crime. I brought up Gypsies as one example because I keep hearing about them from people's negative experiences despite Merino hating those posts.

Looking into it any organised crime of any ethnicity just adapted to their surroundings. All of them liked what the Italians started so they aped the mafia and carved their own legends in criminal history while using names and titles indicating their culture.

Shakepeare's The Merchant of Venice would be a classic example of "traditional" Jewish stereotyping. It's a literary classic, but it's also a really, really fucked up story the more you read it.

 

[Arch Dornan]

I have to look up it up myself to find out and I got it. The Khazarian Mafia that alleges bullshit anti semetic conspiracy theories I don't know if it's done as a parody or it's intentional.

The trial was complete and utter bullshit.



You had some one come in who was not a qualified lawyer, who tried to say that blood isn't included in pound of flesh when it quite fucking clearly is. It would have hurt said asshole who rides a horse through the jewish quarter like a mad man in venice you know that place made out of islands. Second it was a singular pound it would have hurt like a mother fucker but the man would have survived and hopefully not been such an asshole in the future.

The trial was a complete miscarriage of justice and Shylock deserved his revenge on all of those assholes.

No, you are misunderstanding me there. I was not implying that you thought any such thing.

Yeah. Shylock is supposed to be shrewd enough to run a successful business, but at the same time, lunatic enough to expect the courts in any civilized country to uphold the sort of contract he made with Antonio?
It's worth pointing out here, that to Shakespeare's first-generation audience, Jewish moneylenders were something as far-away and exotic as the Italian citystate of Venice itself. All Jews had been expelled from England back in 1290 by King Edward I, and they weren't going to be allowed back in until the time of the Commonwealth under Lord Protector Oliver Cromwell. That was still in the future at the time a certain famous undocumented Klingon immigrant was writing his plays.

The point of the play is the evil of Usury. It's been pointed out though, that by giving Shylock at least one long monologue, Shakespeare humanizes the character in a way that older works did not. To quote from something I read... somewhere... "other authors would tell us that the man was a usurer. Shakespeare tells us that the usurer was a man."
Shylock, however malicious, is a human being. A person with feelings. Not some sort of incomprehensible alien monster.

Ok good. Sorry for being crabby.

Cherico....
Nowhere in the story are we ever told why Shylock had such a huge grudge against Antonio. And was Antonio an "asshole" for borrowing money in order to lend it to a friend? Foolish, sure. The Book of Proverbs has clear warnings against standing surety for loans. It was not Antonio's fault that all three of his overseas trading ventures failed, when presumably one alone of his ships returning safely to Venice would have put him back in liquidity enough to repay the debt, no problem.
Also, Shylock was repeatedly offered repayment of the loan at 300% of the principal. But no, he wanted to cut someone's chest open instead.

Basically he got too greedy and payed the price?
