10-23-15 fat diabetic phil blames hurricane on Netanyahu. Then spergs about Israel -

[CatParty]

 

[SpessCaptain]

I was expecting Netanyahu to be like an Aztec god or something. I was dissapointed to know that he was referring to the Prime Minister of Israel.

 

[MY 405]

Well, I'm not sure, Phil, maybe it's because Ethiopia is on ANOTHER continent?!

 

[Sczylak Madgar]

Goddammit the goyim know about our secret hurricane WMD SHUT IT DOWN

 

[Truant]

Well, I'm not sure, Phil, maybe it's because Ethiopia is on ANOTHER continent?!

Maybe it's because racism is a thing that happens or has happened in literally every nation in the history of the world and while unfortunate, is inherent to human society and humans in general.

 

[Stress Sigh]

So does he believe jews are magic or something?

 

[Count groudon]

Phil you have unironically shown support for Adolf Hitler, the man who outright slaughtered thousands of jewish people, don't act like you're concerned with the well-being of anyone of Jewish descent.

 

[Rin]

Yeah, because I'm sure your new buddy Hitler was a huge fan of black Jews.

 

[Trombonista]

Is he trying to be more-Jewish-than-thou to deny accusations of anti-semitism?

 

[Bassomatic]

I'm shocked, Phil is not a fan, being we know the Hurricane is caused by Bibi to trick cis het dude bro's into feeling bad fro the poor latnix in mexico so we let them in and cause white genocide.

 

[Marvin]

I bet their situation is a lot better than it was in Ethiopia...

 

[Mogambo]

Well, I'm not sure, Phil, maybe it's because Ethiopia is on ANOTHER continent?!

No, actually most Ethiopian Jews were airlifted to Israel in the 80s and 90s, and while Israel and Ethiopia are on different continents, they are still pretty close. And Phil's right, unfortunately. Ethiopian Jews DO face discrimination, mostly from fellow Israelis of European descent (but note that this does not mean ALL Israelis, even all Israelis of European descent, not by a long stretch). It's a complex issue and it's not one that Phil is smart enough to understand.

I wonder if Phil is actually aware that the majority of Israelis are in fact of Sefardi and Mizrahi heritage? And that there's a lot of conservatives in those communities?

 

[autisticdragonkin]

It is very sad that Netanyahu missed with Hurricane Patricia and Phil is still alive

 

[VLAD]

Goddammit the goyim know about our secret hurricane WMD SHUT IT DOWN

Yes, shut it down. Shut it all down. Shut the whole world down.

ACTIVATE......PROJECT NOAH

 

[Planky859]

Those Israelis with their shark attacks, spy vultures, and anti-arab rats. Of course they'd cause massive hurricanes with their evil Zionist technology.

 

[XH 502]

First the gays caused Hurricane Katrina and now the Jews caused Hurricane Patricia?

Is there anything humanity can't do?

 

[MY 405]

Sorry, I read this as Phil whining about Israel not giving a fuck about Jews in another country. Which is what happens when I fail to do my homework and have stayed up way too late. I'm an idiot.

 

[Ravenor]

Can some one who is Jewish or knows more about this than me answer this, But is the African Jewish community the Same as the African / Afro Caribbean Christian community where they have the same faith in basic terms (fluff) but the way they celebrate there faith (the crunch) isn't the same and the already established community doesn't really understand it and that's what can lead to a bit of tension?

Pardon my ignorance I just haven't met a Ethiopian jewish person.

 

[Lefty's Revenge]

Is he really so fucking stupid that he doesn't realize Israel is an ethnically Jewish nation before anything else?

It's something like that, yeah. There have been smaller Jewish populations scattered all over the world since the diaspora (even China has Jews!), and those populations tend to gradually assimilate with the local culture to some extent. The natural drift that you get between larger Jewish groups - Sephardim of Spain and Western Europe, Mizrahim of the Middle East, and Ashkenazim of Eastern Europe - is even more pronounced when you're introducing smaller enclaves from places like Ethiopia into the mix.

I've never met any Ethiopian Jews either, so I'm not sure how much their customs and liturgical practice differ from what's considered typical of Judaism, but I'm sure there's some serious variance in practice. But even when there's not much difference in skin color or customs, we'll still find something to disagree on. Some Hasidic Jewish sects from neighboring villages in Central/Eastern Europe hate the hell out of each other.
