It’s the most favorite scapegoat known to mankind. Works like a charm for centuries 🙄

You're not very sophisticated, are you. Jews occupy a space within western civilization that causes great resentment and disgust, and sometimes it's justified, just as it is for gays and women and every other minority. Gays cant afford to make the same mistakes as jews or women because we're too small a minority. How can you not understand their resentment towards jews and other racial minorities? And i saw this as a racial minority (yes, a real one..not 1/10000 cherokee). Gays and Lesbians complain about transexuals and how they appropriate our community when they were never a part of it, women complain about erasure of their female identity by the transexuals ruining their heritage, their community, asking to invade spaces that werent built by them and to be part of a group you care nothing for and have no intention to contributing to (sound familiar)? This is about heritage. About belonging. About community. The most sacred and holy thing for a human being to do is to right the wrongs of their life so that others like him/her dont have to suffer as they did, and that love creates a dream for someone you will never know to live in so that they may never know what you went through. It's like being kissed on the forehead by a ghost from the past who'll never know what it feels like to escape the hell they live in created by his tormentors but has to console himself that the demons will never have you as their victims.

And then for the tormentors to come into the world gifted and bequeathed to you and colonizing it to start the cycle of torment all over again. Why do you think we feel the way we do? This is what heritage is. You think jewish people would be ok if a bunch of white nationalists suddenly converted into jews and flooded their communities and appropriated their culture, colonized their communities? Why do you think straight women and lesbians are so mad? You're exactly like these people. It's just that they hold nations, and we hold little communities.

  • Ad hominem. Rude and unnecessary.

How many Jews do you think there are...? They are a pretty tiny minority as well, worldwide; in the US where I am, they are definitely as tiny a minority as LGB people, or even smaller. There are certainly not as many as there are women, that's laughable.

This is about heritage. About belonging. About community.

No, it's really not, primarily it's about SAFETY and about the truth. I want to be able to say, "I'm same sex attracted and I'm not attracted to transwomen because they're male" without having to fear being fired at work. I want to be able to hop on a dating app and not have to fear predatory men in wigs stalking me. I want to be able to speak openly about biological reality without being accused of so-called "transphobia". THAT'S what this is about, for me and for many others. Heritage is interesting but ultimately it takes a backseat to the more immediate safety concerns.

    You're listing talking points we give to the outside world to convince them to advance our interests.

    Talking points? These are my honest opinions. If you disagree with them, fine, but you aren't a mind-reader.

    So when gays complain about dehumanization, sexual assault and harassment in their clubs by women.. the women just laugh and call them FGGTS and tell them to "grow up"..

    Those women are being homophobic, too. Gay men and lesbians deal with homophobia. I'm amazed that you seem unaware of this fact.

    Just like how when whites enslaved blacks, the biggest oppressors were women just CONSTANTLY saying, "i feel UnSaFE!!" and making allegations left and right.

    What? 😂 Women are the biggest oppressors of... who, exactly, when black people were enslaved? Black women were arguably the most at risk, and a couple centuries ago, women had like no fucking rights.

    And since we have argued before, notice how she might not even be a lesbian? Or very low IQ lesbian since she doesnt understand how the gay/lesbian community works?

    "Every single gay/lesbian person who doesn't agree with my extremely skewed perspective of the gay/lesbian community must be a fake, or low IQ" - that is such a ridiculous thing to say.

    "lesbians give better orgasms to women so we're useful to them" lol like HOLY FUCK!!!! That was funny and i KNOW thats how you creeps think. Can you imagine a gay guy saying that about the patriarchy?

    I have no idea what this person was going on about but the fact that you claim every lesbian is "perverted" and a "creep" is downright homophobic. Sounds like the same drivel I heard from my religious relatives. I'm not sure if you're a troll or just mentally unsound, but I'm done entertaining your clear homophobia, your clear hatred of homosexuals disgusts me. I hope for your own sake that you are trolling; what a twisted, disturbing way to look at the world.

    YOu're doing great. Just want to intertwine:

    a couple centuries ago, women had like no fucking rights.

    I think you mean decades. In a lot of countries women got the right to vote less then 100 years ago. For example Switzerland in 1971 or saudie Arabia where women got the right to vote in 2015. In the US its only since 1960 that women were allowed to open their own bankaccount.

    Thank you, and you're totally right. The only reason I said centuries is because he said that women were the oppressors during periods of slavery (edit: e.g.) (1700s-1800s) which makes no fucking sense. 😂
