It is clear that you are part of the problem, just like Moono -- a warmongering extremist who doesn't care shit about peace.
Crispy said:I can't believe nobody has commented on that guys almighty beard - It looks like he's glued an enourmous wotsit to his face!

#11 Admin have already stated that they are 'uncomfortable' with the term and I've not used it since despite its legitimate usage elsewhere. That's my choice, nothing to do with the 'politically correct' lobby. You, on the other hand, and your PC Plonker allies have entrenched it into your vocabulary. I'm uncomfortable with that.

however you did use the ill advised n whatever context jewboy comment ... it undermined you argument entirely and futher derailed the debate into a deeper personal spat ...
tangentlama said:he's here talking isn't he? i say that means he cares about peace.
you got a problem with someone other than a jew using the term 'jewboy'?
are you a heeb?
The matter has been dealt with.
astronaut said:I don't believe this for a minute -- making peace is a complicated matter -- moono and garfield seem to prefer the sledgehammer approach -- that makes them just like settlers, terrorists, etc.
Yes, I'm a heeb and I don't like anyone using the term "jewboy" -- after being called it quite a few times in my childhood -- as the only Jewish person in a large comprehensive school -- I find it about as amusing as a black person might find being called "nigger" -- and I am sure all my Jewish friends would agree.
astronaut said:Have you apologized? No.
Have you accepted that the term is unacceptable? No.
Do you still think it is merely a matter of political correctness? Yes.
The matter has NOT been dealt with.
tangentlama said:better write to Heeb Magazine then, and tell them how offensive the Jewboy Bling Belt is to you. I don't know anyone who uses the termm 'jewboy' personally, but some jewish popular youth media uses that term.
sure, it's not for polite conversation, but some people refer to themselves like that too, so it's hardly something to bash moono over. probably knows people who like heeb hip-hop or something.
tangentlama said:er astronaut. are you going to write to Heeb Magazine and tell them you find the Jewboy Bling Belt offensive? or are you just going to have a go at Moono for using it?
moono said:Done. I used it first and I accept that.
moono said:The latter is false which negates the former.
astronaut said:Still no apology however, and no acceptance that it's even a racist term.
tangentlama said:USA, 1980s saw legislation passed that defined Jews as a race, just so legislators could protect them with existing anti-discrimination laws. In fact, lots of Jews are really offended by this because Nazism also defined Jews as an race. Jews are not actually a 'race' at all.
moono said:Defiance of logic is definitely your strong point.
moono said:Still wanking, astronaut ? You're due for some attention.
really and you'd know what abotu me based on what exactly?astronaut said:Garfield,
