Fake News Outlets Now Pushing Jewish Conspiracy Theories Thick With Anti-Semitic Overtones
Bethany Mandel explains the conspiracy, or at least tries to, confessing that she's read it several times and still doesn't understand what it is that Politico is alleging.
Politico took great pains to tie the Chabad movement to Putin, and in so doing, omits a few fairly crucial points that could have been fleshed out by actually speaking with a representative of the movement... While there are outposts of the movement in Russia, there also exist outposts everywhere else in the world. Their emissaries, called schulchim, are technically titled "messengers" because they talk to anyone, anywhere, in an attempt to spread Judaism to Jews in far-flung corners of the Earth. Chabad's history in the former USSR is filled with persecution, arrest, and exile. To survive anywhere, but especially in a land as hostile to Jews as Russia is, it's no wonder the group has worked hard to remain in the government's good graces. Blind to the blatant anti-Semitic tropes it trotted out, Politico then paints the movement as a large, rich, tightly woven organization, a depiction straight out of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. In reality, individual Chabad houses, which start with seed money from headquarters, are soon expected to be self-sufficient through fundraising and operate as franchises, not as branches of the Brooklyn headquarters. (Disclosure: This is why I am a nominal monthly donor to the Chabad of Cambodia, which provides essential services to Jewish residents and visitors to the country, from free holiday and Sabbath meals to burials to weddings.)Jared Kushner also donated to Chabad, ergo, Jews are using the Slavs against you and you are left defenseless. (To quote the Blues Brothers Illinois Nazi leader, approximately.) Or something.

Judaism has been pretty good about surviving as a separate culture even when surrounded by other cultures, which is historically unusual.
This means they exist as a convenient, and essentially permanent, scapegoat.
This is exacerbated by the fact that each new despot looking to distract his population can use the same propaganda that his predecessors have used, making it far, far too easy...

It goes ever further back than that. At least to the early 30s, if not further. It's just that in contrast with the Nazis, Stalin was using methods that were at once more efficient (famine) and extremely manpower-intensive (beatings, hangings, firing squads). You know, old-school.

As I recall most are of the faith, but there's lots who are gentiles as well. The physical standards aren't as stringent, so us middle-aged fatasses can still make a contribution.

In the beginning (1930), Dagwood was a rich kid and Blondie Boopadoop was a flirty flapper. When Dagwood told his parents he was going to marry Blondie, they cut off his inheritance.
Josh Fruhlinger of The Comics Curmudgeon has a theory that Dagwood's boss, J.C. Dithers, is actually his father, which explains why Dagwood can sleep at his desk every day and never get fired.
Another mystery is how Dagwood's bumbling neighbor Herb ended up with a hot betty like wife Tootsie.

Of course, I suspect they would be entirely content if others used these relationships to come up with some conspiracy theories, but Politico does none of that. BTW, here's a link to the first version of the article archived at the Wayback Machine.

Mandel also suggests that Politico glosses over the international aspect of Chabad. That seems hard to reconcile with this paragraph from Politico.
Founded in Lithuania in 1775, the Chabad-Lubavitch movement today has adherents numbering in the five, or perhaps six, figures. What the movement lacks in numbers it makes up for in enthusiasm, as it is known for practicing a particularly joyous form of Judaism.
I could go on and on about how full of shit Mandel is, but anyone can just read the piece for themselves. There's not one anti-Semitic word in the whole thing.

so now the guy who was dragged off has extra cause of action because UAL aggravated his existing psychiatric condition.
I know when we purchase airline tickets we agree to their terms and conditions, one of them being that due to overbooking a ticketholder could be bounced from their flight.
However, I doubt there's anything in UAL's 45 page contract that allows for the physical abuse of an incalcitrant passenger. This situation could have been handled so many ways that would not have put UAL in the international spotlight, once again.
IMO it's just another example of how we live in a two-tier society. In this case it's the UAL employees' needs that trump the PAYING passenger's needs. It's so obvious that airline personnel from the top down have an Us v. Them mentality.

No, he wasn't. Particularly in post 9/11 America, if an airline tells you to get off the plane, you get off the plane. Doesn't matter why. Refusing to do so could mean all sorts of things, including that you may want to light your damned shoes on fire and getting off the plane might curtain that.
Read the contract. You signed it by purchasing a ticket. Contract says that you may be denied your seat for any reason the airline says.
Pick a bone with that contract, not with the airline personnel who are doing their damned job. Any pilot, at any time, can use his or her discretion to remove any passenger for any reason. Period. Guy didn't listen, guy got removed.

Read the contract. You signed it by purchasing a ticket. Contract says that you may be denied your seat for any reason the airline says.
Pick a bone with that contract, not with the airline personnel who are doing their damned job. Any pilot, at any time, can use his or her discretion to remove any passenger for any reason. Period. Guy didn't listen, guy got removed.
Unfortunate? Sure. Illegal? Hardly.

You know, it's not like the airplane can pull over and put a guy out on the side of the road for bad behavior. ONe goes, we all go.

They overbooked. They asked and the required number of people gave up their seats.
THEN THE AIRLINE REALIZED THEY, AND ONLY THEY THEY FUCKED UP AND NEEDED TO MAKE ROOM FOR A FLIGHT CREW THAT NEEDED TO BE SOMEWHERE THE NEXT DAY.
SORRY. FUCK UNITED. THAT'S ON THEM.
They could have gotten their flight crew there a number of different ways.

Fair point. Certainly.
OTOH, administering a policy as United did that not only created the situation, but exacerbated it, well, I'm not that confident in the running of the airline either.
Lot of bad actors in this one - but United deserves more than half the blame I think for setting the ball in motion. A competent company would be seeking to defuse, not get in a pissing contest.
