    The name calling perfectly demonstrates what credibility you have on this topic.

    blame all their problems on jews

    How is this my problem? It is just reality.

    whites didn't do nuthing

    Ad hominem.

    a straight out lie.

    A bullshit claim from, a clearly jewish, emotionally driven and very biased person. Of the records that exist and are public it is clear that the majority of slave ships were owned by jews. The majority of slaves were servants owned by the wealthy. The majority of the wealthy were jews. Of the wealthy non jews the christians were religiously opposed to slavery and thus far less likely to own any, while jewish religious teachings allow for slavery. The only logical conclusion is that the majority of slaves were owned by jews.

    Furthurmore, it is clear that jews control the media, academia, and effectively all popular internert search engines and social media. They control the narrative. If an audit of who owned slaves did not condemn jews it would be public.

    That is bullshit and you know it!No one disputes that there were jews who did own slaves.However, to say that europeans had 0 involvement with the slave trade is just showing your ethic narcissism.In fact, the claim was even denounced by the American Historical Association, which in response to the book "The secret relationship between blacks and jews"(where people get this idea from) publicized that "The AHA deplores any misuse of history that distorts the historical record to demonize or demean a particular racial, ethnic, religious, or cultural group. The Association therefore condemns as false any statement alleging that Jews played a disproportionate role in the exploitation of slave labor or in the Atlantic slave trade." https://www.historians.org/research-and-publications/perspectives-on-history/march-1995/aha-council-issues-policy-resolution-about-jews-and-the-slave-trade First of all, despite the book's title, it's no secret that there were Jews connected to the slave trade. Not just in the Americas- also in any society in which Jews lived in which people owned slaves. This ownership was by and large representative of their number proportionately in the population. They definitely owned and traded slaves specifically in the Americas, though to different degrees at various times. This is something that has been known by historians basically forever (as far back as an early work of Jewish history from 1788!) and has never been kept a secret. (I remember seeing a fellow undergrad student at a conference who was excitedly telling her professor about how she had "discovered" that Jews were part of the slave trade, and he basically laughed and said, yeah, we know.)

    That doesn't prevent The Secret Relationship from being essentially a calumny against the Jewish people, a book which Henry Louis Gates Jr of Harvard called "the bible of the new anti-Semitism" in his NYT review of the book. The claims that Jews were major or disproportionate parts of the slave trade, or that they owned far more slaves than the average white person, are often made by cherry picking data from intellectually valid sources (the book is very proud of its thousand-plus footnotes, though one review in The Atlantic notes how confusing and obfuscating the footnoting system is) and taking it out of context. Some data points which are used in the book are actually taken from books and articles which endeavor to prove (and succeed in proving) exactly the opposite- that Jews were a minute part of the American slave trade/ownership, at most proportionate to their (also then tiny) proportion of the population. In other cases, the book relies on information from biased secondary sources, as I'll get into below.If you actually cared about real history instead of your"Whites are too pure and did nothing wrong". read here https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/1995/09/slavery-and-the-jews/376462/ and here https://www.nybooks.com/articles/1994/12/22/the-slave-trade-and-the-jews/

    That is a lie. I already explained why. You have no source for this claim, it is purely a biased assumption. As I explained any reasonable person would conclude that jews disproportionately owned slaves given other verifiable facts.

    You have shown 0 sources for your claims and continue to state"It's a fact"over and over again.I love when neo nazis like you act as though you have all the facts whereas everyone that disagree with you is brainwashed.Show me the lie?

    neon nazi

    There is that name calling again. 🤣

    I provided solid logic. Your claims perfectly represent your behaviour. It's simple projection.

    [–]jacques1102 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

    Once again you haven't shown any sources, but hey continue acting like you've won.
