Are American Jews Traumatized?

[Crazy_Ivan80]

the European left-wing has since then shifted its allegiance from the fellow socialists in Israël (those kibbutzim were the real deal and all that) to their new voting-chattle imported from the ME and Maghreb.

I did not quite realize you held grallonesque views.

I guess it's a Francophone thing?

it's you not knowing how politics in Belgium works, or doesn't, depending on the time of day and direction of the wind. Surreal will suffice as explanation I'm afraid.

[Crazy_Ivan80]

I never understood the fear of being "culturally assimiliated" that some people have. Polish culture is tedious - I wish Bismarck had done a better job. I can't fathom why Belgians, Jews, Quebecois or Arabs would be more worthy of preserving as a culture than Poles though.

don't worry, ISIS has a solution for that

I'm ignorant of the finer points of Belgian politics, that is true. However, I don't think Belgian politics explain the behaviour of the Euro-left.

Not everyone can be as cosmopolitan as you, alas.

I'm not really cosmopolitan (so pox on your sarcasm, alas). I simply find Western/Anglo-Saxon culture to be superior.

Ah. In that case, I will rephrase: not everyone can be an Anglophile self-hating Pole, alas.

Jeez Jacob, you're quite the crabby one today.

How so

[Siege]

The numbers don't lie, man.
50% intermarriage is catastrophic.

If you had been born in this country you would have discovered the joys of goy pussy for yourself.

BTW, is there any Jewish equivalent of Oreo or banana?

Oh, I enjoyed plenty of non-jewish and jewish non-praticing american pussy before I met my wife.
It doesn't mean I'm gonna marry somebody that is not going to raise my kids in Judaism.

[Capetan Mihali]

I'm the product of intermarriage, and over the past 15 years I've moved from being a liberal Zionist proud of my Jewish ancestry to being a hardcore Palestinian supporter and borderline antisemite.   So add one data point for Siege.

When did Bismark rule Warsaw?

[Siege]

Wow Minsky does not usually get so personal.

I didn't even know he had children.

Not a big secret.
Siege was first to ask.

I'm extatic of being the first one.

Typical jewish self-hatred.

Don't fuckin blame on me your fuckin disfuntional fear.
I ain't fuckin afraid of being a fuckin jew.

I don't get the preserve the culture/whatever bs that many people go on about. My grandparents "lost" their language and in many ways culture and so fucking what? Are their descendants less happy because of this? No way.
