The Morning Rant: Minimalist Edition

Tribalism? How very unmodern... unsophisticated... ignorant... uneducated!

Don't we live in a society in which the individual is the highest expression of humanity? Don't we live in the modern world, which is interconnected with wondrous transportation that will get us anywhere on the planet in a matter of a few hours? And the instantaneous communication available to us is even more amazing! We are connected to everyone, and everyone is connected to us!

Except...October 7th happened, and Jewish Tribalism needs to make a big comeback...and fast.

Demonstrators chanting that Hitler was right..."From The River To The Sea" as a catchphrase...Jews being prevented from walking into campus buildings...Jews unwelcome on the streets of sophisticated European capitals...Jews being killed by protestors... all under cover of many governments' curious sloth in upholding the law.

And to make matters worse, Israel is being demonized by supposedly sophisticated world organizations like the UN, the ICC, the ICRC, the EU, and dozens more. And the tepid and inconsistent support from the United States, which has traditionally been Israel's solid ally is calling into question Israel's position as part of the West's bulwark against encroaching Islam. Never mind Europe, which is rapidly being subsumed by Islam's march.

No longer can Jews see ourselves are part of this great experiment in liberal democracy, enlightened self rule, and robust respect for all...because we are being singled out as unworthy of those protections and support!

The message is clear; Jews are not welcome as full members of Western culture because of our connection to our ancestral home. Israel is the modern focus for 2,500 years of Jew-Hate, and the fury with which the world expresses its frustration that it has not disappeared under a tidal wave of Arab and Muslim hatred is on full display.

How to respond? Raise Judaism and Jewish culture above the ephemeral connection to the West. Return to the Tribe. Focus on Jewish culture and the Jewish people before participating in the larger Western culture.

There is a huge amount of overlap, it is not life-changing, but it does require that attention be paid. Jewish businesses require our support. Synagogues require our membership. Jewish culture requires our defense. And most of all...the Jewish people must participate in its own defense and stop relying on a Western culture that is in the process of rejecting us as full-fledged members.

But that does not mean that we are alone. Outside of the tent cities on our campuses and the progressive hell-holes of our cities is a vast and wonderful country that has been steadfast in its support for Israel and Judaism. And they are being confronted by similar pressures, since all religion is under attack.

That Jews, Judaism and Israel are on the battlefront does not mean that people of other faiths are safe. As Islam says..."First the Saturday people, then the Sunday people."

I'd suggest that if you're patronizing a Jewish-owned business that does not know you, make it plain to the owner that you are a supporter of Judaism and Israel. If you're Christian, emphasize that, too. It's going to take a long time to wipe away the perception that to be a faithful Christian means anti-semitism, but it must be done.

47 I have to disagree that tribalism is the best choice.

It is an understandable choice as it seems that is the only response to a world that is dividing itself into tribes- there's an increase in broader "white" tribalism as well, because when you are attacked for being part of a "tribe" you start to defend simply as part of the "tribe".

The real answer is the melting pot. Maybe some may think it just a bigger "tribe" to defend, but I think it's fundamentally different from using immutable characteristics as the basis for your tribe.

It works for Christianity- "there is neither Jew nor Greek, slave or free, male or female- all are one in Christ."

It works similarly for America- every one brings their uniqueness to the culture and adds to the nation, but takes things from everyone else, too. It's why American was great.

The melting pot is, in essence, a way to balance and integrate colonial subjects. If you come here, you have to adapt and Americanize. You'll bring something of yourself, too, of course - our slang, foods, etc. all reflect that over time - but you will change *yourself* to gain admission and you will conform with our ways.

That the people subject to it voluntarily subscribe to it doesn't change what it is. I agree with you, for what it's worth, and the "melting pot" concept is key, but it requires both that people willingly subjugate themselves to it and that the rest of the people willingly enforce it.

All means of enforcement have been destroyed because the "melting pot" concept is too colonial for progressives.

Jacob elevated the descendants of Ephraim and Manasseh (the two sons of Joseph and his Egyptian wife Asenath) to the status of full tribes in their own right due to Joseph receiving a double portion after Reuben lost his birth right because of his transgression with Bilhah.

92 I think the tribalism seen today is more ideological driven than it is religious. The left isn't really all that religious in the traditional sense, but they are very, very ideological and that IS their religion.

In that respect, there are people from all the religions that may, or may not fall on one side of the ideological spectrum or the other. Not "just" Jews and Christians either.

So both 'sides' here have rather diverse followers. Clearly one of those sides is insane.

My 2 cents. YMMV

My take on this is that they are determined to exterminate religion. Jews in Israel are more observant that Jews in Europe or America. That's why Israel must be destroyed. To destroy those who are faithful. It's the most obvious because it's a whole country.
But they are attacking other religious groups as well. Catholic, protestant, Baptist, Methodist... every Christian denomination is being attacked. Infiltrated by the rainbow brigade, excoriated as bigots, cancelled by government decree, and censored for belief and arrested for prayer.
They do not want any religious beliefs to interfere with their corruption and depravity.
Why aren't they attacking Islam? Because they understand, truly know, that it is not a religion.

The worst racists I ever met were Albanians who came to the US as teenagers in the '80s, got citizenship, and continued to live here. Their children were allowed to play only with other Albanian families. The wife actually told me, "We would beat them if they had American friends. We would kill them if they had black friends."

I asked if they were going to move back to Albania when the kids became teenagers, since they'd start looking for future spouses then. The husband was shocked I mentioned it. "There are no jobs in Albania."

They couldn't stand the Filipino or Chaldean neighbors, let alone mixed-race couples with kids.

Now, stuffing your face until you're 500 pounds is another question altogether involving the question of the addictive nature of certain high calorie foods, mental disorders, and other factors.

159 Also, they don't say much about Arabs returned invaded lands across the Middle East.

Hell, they think the Reconquista in Spain is bad.

The Party Line is that you determine who is "indigenous" by looking only when the Western Expansion started really gathering steam about 1600 or so.

That way, you can pretend that the Turks are indigenous to Turkey, that Arabs are indigenous to every place they've settled outside of Arabia, etc.

I saw a Crimean Tatar explain that the Crimean Tatars are "indigenous" to Crimea - apparently arriving with the Mongol Horde in the 14th Century is enough to make you indigenous.

250 I noted several contingencies of Hasidic Jews at the NRA Annual Meetings. Groups of four, wandering the aisles.

And always, they were smiling, having received naught but the warmest of welcomes, well wishes and words of support.

My Prayer (yes, literally), is that they'll return to their congregations, and spread the word of their experiences, there in Dallas.

And that they'll acquire The Training, take up arms, and join the ranks of Armed Jews in this Nation, who are and remain, an inseparable part of Our Freedom Family.

Hell, I think they'd even love being at The Ranch in Texas in October. Except for the Bacon Wench, but I could guarantee, they'd at least be POLITE in her presence.

Civilization allows for our differences, without making our differences become the fissures for division. Respect and Courtesy are the grout that fill those voids.

Tons on YouTube, too. Usually unhelpful. A lot of the drug ads on YT are 5-second ads with some scene - a woman by a lake, a man on a hillside, whatever - followed by the name of the drug. That's it. Nothing about what the drug does or what it's for. Just the name and a calm scene with gentle music.

I don't understand these ads, or why they exist. I assume there's some backroom deal between the pharma companies and Google, where the pharmas buy useless 5-second ad spots and Google does some censorship favor for them (or something like that, something that's essentially money laundering), but it's baffling.

Without the Israelies, the 'Palestinian' state won't even be able to survive. They don't build anything of their own and rely on them for power, water, and everything else. They'll trash any facilities the Israelies (or other 3rd parties) built, just like they did when they took over Gaza and the West Bank. And they'll come crying to everyone else once they've cut off their noses to spite themselves. But they'll sure have plenty of spite to keep themselves warm at least.

301 Poll after poll shows that a significant majority of the American people support Israeli's right to defend itself against the terrorists.

Leftists have a bad habit of claiming that because the institutions they dominate such as the media and the corrupt government they had to cheat to infest support terrorists that means the country does. As in most things they are wrong.

303 Absolutely true. Israeli gun laws are very restrictive. You have to be pretty much ex-mil or ex-gov ... or a minimum age somewhere around 40. And then you get to buy a handgun and one box of ammo.

Israeli gov is very, very liberal.

Go back to your shithole, you subhuman filth.

Without the Israelies, the 'Palestinian' state won't even be able to survive. They don't build anything of their own and rely on them for power, water, and everything else. They'll trash any facilities the Israelies (or other 3rd parties) built, just like they did when they took over Gaza and the West Bank. And they'll come crying to everyone else once they've cut off their noses to spite themselves. But they'll sure have plenty of spite to keep themselves warm at least.

396 Jen,

Friday would probably have been scheduled to be a "dark" day in the courthouse, the day before a holiday weekend.

Monday is Memorial day, the Holiday.

So they could get 2 days of "deliberating" and then break, is what the Judge is hoping for. Think that any holiday break will "disrupt deliberations".

When in reality, it will take 15 minutes and then be done.

The Judge is prolonging this as much as he can.

421 Adam B. Coleman, who is black, wrote in the New York Post:

Joe Biden was racist and patronizing in his speech to Morehouse grads

Joe Biden is right. Black people are treated as negatively different, inferior and undeserving of being seen as equals.

The culprit of such behavior: Joe Biden himself.

He’s incapable of speaking to black people without reminding us of past plights, or ones that we’re all supposedly dealing with today, as an emotional ploy to leverage our votes.

Worse, even in the face of success and celebratory triumph, like graduating from college, Joe Biden is unable to let us have our moment to reflect on what we were capable of doing.

Instead, he patronizes, telling us what he believes we won’t be able to achieve…

I don’t throw statements like this around often because I take them very seriously: Joe Biden is a racist.

Charges off a USB (car if need be) and keeps things cool enough for general comfort or sleeping. I tried it out last year when things were in the 90s and its's a handy thing to have around. Runs about seven hours on a charge.
