Nope. The same kind of BS you get from communists blaming the capitalists. Blaming ideological positions on specific groups of people when, on the whole, they align more with geography and wealth to begin with. If you cannot actually defend your position, I'm not going to waste my time. All you have is a conspiracy theory on the basis that some Jews have opinions you don't like, and an opinion shared by plenty of other races with high income brackets. Ultimately all your gripes amount to is "Waaaah some Jews do better than me and believe things I don't like waaaah"

I'm intimately familiar with this kind of thing from having argued with people like you for half a decade. Can you actually come up with a defense of your position? No? I thought not. Because it's always the same from people like you. You pretend nobody can argue against you, and the second anybody does you cry about it and claim victory. Feel free to make an attempt, maybe you somehow have some magical argument that presents your side as more than just conspiracy theorists looking for someone to blame for your failures.

You should read the debate pyramid

Again, no, I have repeatedly offered you to defend your position. You have not. For the third time in a row, you are refusing to. All I did was explain I am intimately familiar with it, and criticize it. This is your last chance to put up some kind of argument.

[–]Anatolia 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (33 children)

and criticize it.

you never criticized any distinct points, you just said people like him are idiots looking for someone else to blame for their failures. (a pretty inflammatory thing to say honestly, do you really know anything about the people you are commenting to?)

I think you need to take a breather, or criticize specific points if you want a discussion. OR you just don't want any discussion. That's cool too!

I called them conspiracy theorists looking for other people to blame for their failures. That is not "name calling". It's a criticism of the conspiracy theory. Do you care to actually take up the argument, or are you just going to keep trolling? Or do you just assume it isn't a conspiracy theory (even though it fits the exact definition)?

Edit: And since you clearly missed it, here is the central refutation of the conspiracy theory: "Blaming ideological positions on specific groups of people when, on the whole, they align more with geography and wealth to begin with. [...] All you have is a conspiracy theory on the basis that some Jews have opinions you don't like, and an opinion shared by plenty of other races with high income brackets."

Calling people failures is not a criticism of conspiracy theory.

Now you're getting somewhere. This is why you should probably research how New York got it's wealth (hint: it was slave trading and cotton) then when you read the scholarly sources regarding who were the majority owners and financiers of slave trade since the inception of the funding of Christopher Columbus. Now you are getting somewhere :)

I said blaming for their failures, not that they are failures. There's a difference, try to pay attention.

And so did plenty of non-jews and other kinds of bankers or anyone in financing. The reason some Jews ended up in finance positions stems from the fact Catholics couldn't charge interest and Jews rarely had other occupations allowed to them. So what? You start with trolling and your very first point does not address my criticism, in fact falls in line exactly with it.

And they need to repent for their sins in the slave trade just as catholics need to repent for their sins of terrorizing the native people and destroying much of their heritage, forcing a fake white jesus religion upon them.

conspiracy theory

You do realize that everything big that happens is the result of a conspiracy? Man walks on moon, that's the result of a conspiracy. People actually went into a smoke filled room and conspired to put a man on the moon. Then it happened. A giant pyramid arose in Egypt 5000 years ago. Well, that was the result of a conspiracy.

You fucking idiot, a "conspiracy theory" is merely one's assessment of HOW things came about.

You don't know what the word "conspiracy" means. Let's cite the dictionary to help:

noun, plural con·spir·a·cies.

  1. the act of conspiring.

  2. an evil, unlawful, treacherous, or surreptitious plan formulated in secret by two or more persons; plot.

  3. a combination of persons for a secret, unlawful, or evil purpose: He joined the conspiracy to overthrow the government.

  4. Law. an agreement by two or more persons to commit a crime, fraud, or other wrongful act.

  5. any concurrence in action; combination in bringing about a given result.n evil, unlawful, treacherous, or

  6. surreptitious plan formulated in secret by two or more persons; plot.

None of these definitions fit your use of the word "conspiracy", as it appears you actually meant "agreement" or "cooperation" of some kind. Rather, conspiring and conspiracy inherently imply nefarious, evil, unlawful, or other plans or plots against someone or something. In other words, blaming a race of people for such things means you have a theory of a conspiracy to explain some observations. A conspiracy theory.

This is merely intent. If others think you're doing good then it's not a conspiracy, if they think you're doing bad, it's a conspiracy.

How dumb are you?
