Jewish Self-Determination and Nerdiness

IMPORTANT NOTE:if you are rude or insulting to me in reblogs or comments on my posts (or are just boring) I will block you—I don’t owe you my attention 36 year old Oregonian Jewish Pantheist Progressive Nerd Librarian White Male who believes in the right of all peoples to self-determination. Not too old to care, not too young to count. I oppose the murder of Jews for political purposes, and I reblog stuff I like.

My instant block policy has officially evolved to include making arguments we’ve all heard a billion times that have counter arguments we’ve all heard a billion times. If you’re boring, you are not worth my time, and you’re getting blocked

When you meet Edward Elric he gives off the impression that he's the short-tempered hot-headed "violence is the answer to all life's questions" kind of protagonist, and it's in fact incredible character craft that he's actually the character who ends the series with a negative-3 kill count.

[phantomrose96]

people killed: 0

direct orders of "you really really need to kill this guy" ignored: 1

ongoing murders being committed by Ed's own friends/colleagues that Ed got in the way of to specifically stop that murder from happening: 2

[phantomrose96]

God's worst soldier Edward Elric. Showed up as the youngest member of the Amestrian army, took millions of dollars from them, never followed a single order, helped dismantle their fascist regime, left with a lower kill count than he arrived with, then fucked off to go be a house-husband. Character of all time.

[ido100]

"God's worst soldier" is quite the title. Especially when earning said God's respect in the end.

eternity in hell or a public bathroom stall with no air conditioning

[ido100]

At least Hell has air circulation to have the oxygen flow continously.

[m-has-a-blog]

Lovely sentiment but the way it’s worded sounds like this dude got fucking killed during a little league game

[ido100]

Elementary school baseball is fucking intense.

It might surprise you but there is this country located in the middle east called Iran which *gasp* is actually populated by people called Iranians who after 47 years of death and destruction, decided to ask for military intervention to get rid of the terrorist government occupying their country and now they have to tolerate “oskols” like you who don’t even bother a simple google search before embarrassing themselves :))

That’s who “WE” are you بیشرف

[im-not-just-physicall]

usa won't solve iranian oppression

you just will be opressed differently and used once again as always just for oil as a colony

I hate islamic republic. Yet I also hate imperialism and you're delusional about the "heroic USA that will solve everything like a brave knight"

only Iranian people can free their own land. No other country can do that for you

[insert-some-url]

“Heroic USA”? Lmao I have mentioned before that only Iranians will free Iran and decide for its future you absolute koskhol

The poor reading comprehension website strikes again 😂

[im-not-just-physicall]

kill yourself

you're the only dumb Iranian I ever met

[ido100]

Aaaand the ghoul finally shows its face. What, can't handle the Iranians not fitting the "US bully" narrative?

[im-not-just-physicall]

the fuck you mean

noone asked you, you Zionist cunt

[ido100]

Cry harder. Iranians rejoice when Basij militants and regime leaders are getting obliterated. They're thanking the US and Israel.

[im-not-just-physicall]

fuck usa and fuck israel

ya aren't solving anything you bitch ass zionist retards

[insert-some-url]

[im-not-just-physicall]

I hope you two will die soon

[ido100]

[im-not-just-physicall]

As Alastor from Hazbin Hotel said-

"You're so obsessed with me, I knew you'd need me here to be~ your unwilling audience when you lose your marbles in act three!"

[im-not-just-physicall]

oh hell naw hazbin hotel zionist

don't you have work to do? like killing Palestinians for example? or do you watch Palestinians die while wearing hazbin hotel merch?

[ido100]

Neither. I just watch you lose it, like Ally watching Vox.

If you're so angry, just block me.

[insert-some-url]

No use arguing with a Stalin fanboy

[ido100]

True, but it's fun watching him lose it.

[ido100]

My funniest interaction with a neo nazi to date.

[log6]

"you seem like you hate everything" I absolutely do we are living in utterly undignified times this shit is embarrassing at an existential level

Yes, yes, “blood for the blood god” and all, but when you think about it, why would the blood god want blood?

I mean, they’re the blood god.

Presumably they already have blood.

You’re giving them the one thing that by definition they already have in great supply.

[changeitagain]

I don’t think you end up the blood god by saying “yeah, that seems like a reasonable amount of blood.”

Ppl call Israel an ethnostate out one side their mouth, then out the other they say Jews aren't an ethnicity lol. make it make sense.

The majority of Israelis are mizrahi not ashkenazi so the "ethno" in ethnostate can't be referring to european. (and even still most ashkenazim have middle eastern ancestry but the ppl who say this definitely dont know or admit this.)

But also usually when they say ethnostate they do mean Jewish majority. So how can it be an ethnostate with a jewish majority if jewish isnt an ethnicity???? If Jews arent a distinct ethnicity and are just europeans, then israel cant be a jewish-majority ethnostate lol since jewish doesnt exist as an ethnicity.

You wouldnt say america is a "christian ethnostate" because christianity isnt an ethnicity. If they arent ethnicities then its not an ethnostate. You would need another term like theocracy if u were just referring to the religion.

But functionally, they would mean that both are european-majority ethnostates (christian = substituted for european in this as well). Except that the majority of Israel's jewish majority are middle eastern, not european, even if we assume ashkenazi = european ancestry using their internal logic, the majority of israeli jews are again mizrahi.

So the whole term just doesnt make any fucking sense whatsoever lol. When it comes to demographics Israel is 20% arab, how many Arab-majority countries have a 20% jewish or european population again? hmmm...

[featherweightwing]

They call Israel an “ethnostate” but they also can’t acknowledge that Jews are an ethnicity because then they’d have to answer the obvious follow-up question:

If all Jews, regardless of whether they’re Ashkenazi, Mizrahi, etc. share a common ethnicity, then where did that ethnicity originate?
