George Floyd Riots

Better pull down that movie also before they watch it and learn Cleopatra was white.

It does claim this in the Bible. It is just not backed by anything to confirm it from what I have seen. It might have happened, I just want evidence to back the claim. No Jewish relics in the area, no other documentation agreeing, evidence disagreeing with it about the location of the Jewish people


I have the box set too, I better watch it before they storm into my house and burn them. And when I say “burn” I don’t mean make a copy.

Strange times.

I hope they don’t go after Archie Bunker, now.

I can’t offhand give you those references. Certainly, based on simple geography, there is virtually zero chance of Jews not having been in Egypt in some capacity multiple times. If I com across something I’ll send it to you.

I’ll be open to it. Certainly could have happened. I won’t do any further posts on this, until you post back as it is a tangent not related to the OP.

Yes, they analyzed food remains in workers’ campsites and found out they were relatively rich in protein (meat, fish). As protein sources were expensive, it means these people were being taken care of. Hence they were probably skilled laborers.

When Vasco da Gama arrived in India, the first person ashore was a New Christian (converted Jew), as he was stepped ashore he was met with curses in Castilian from a group of North African traders, some of the Jews that had converted to Islam.

I see that Ice Cube is already on the matter, posting anti-Semitic memes.

They’re Marxists. The underlying theory is that every technological or cultural advancement in the Western world in the last 600 years is due to African slavery. If you’re white and rich (or just white), you’re supposedly rich because of African slavery, even if you made your money in a modern industry that hasn’t employed or benefited from slave labor.

So now that they’ve established your guilty by virtue of your societal position, it’s time to pay up - posting a black square on Instagram (wearing a red star, pinning a revolutionary tricolor sash in previous revolutions) won’t save you. In Marxist terms, you’re a rich peasant, a kulak that’s exploiting those less fortunate - mythical peasants, or in this case supposedly an entire race of people. Hand over, and now, everything you own - both in the physical, societal and intellectual sense - and maybe, maybe we’ll assign you some penance and you’ll get off lightly.

For now, these typically Marxists demands are focused on the words of arts and literature. JK Rowling should “put her down pen” because as a transphobe (!) it was decided (in Washington Post, of all places) that her body of work now belongs to the people.

Here’s a Marxist mob demanding a cool 250 million from a Poetry Foundation, Danegeld because a BLM support letter from the Foundation was deemed not strong enough, and you know, slavery. And the best part is, they will be getting their way.

Hand over your property to the Party, now.

This is no different than in Italy in the late 60s with the student riots. They were communists (in their minds) fighting for the rights of the working class. Pasolini, a genuine communist, pointed out to them that they were middle and upper class mamma’s boys who were born with silver spoons in their mouths who were rebelling against their parents more than fighting for the rights of the working class. All of these Marxist ideas (free shit!) sound good to people who don’t work and have been (still are) supported by their parents. The real working class people and the poor know that in the end, they still have to work; only the ones giving the orders have changed.

They will be in for a shock when the state and feds stop giving them the money that was going to law enforcement. They probably think they will still get those funds and will spend them as they please.

It’s funny because Camden, NJ disbanded their police department but somehow they have twice as many cops as before and spend more money than before on police. And crime went down. What a surprise.

I am dismayed to read this story from here in Canada. It seems with the George Floyd stuff exploding world wide, we have some officers who got physical with a First Nations Chief who pleaded what do you guys think you are doing? The RCMP Commissioner starts off saying there is no systemic racism in the force, and recently did an about face:

It’s not just the USA, you see. All of Western Civilization is just irredeemably racist to the core, even though we’re the ones who self-corrected slavery out of our systems and used force, treasure and blood to fight for freedom across the globe over the last 200 years (including the UK here).

These Red Guard assholes have traction, so I think we’re going to keep seeing them step on the gas a bit harder. They’re getting the best reactions you can imagine.

Bend the knee, or else.

I have read somewhere that New Christians had an important role in the slave trade to the Americas around the1600s, and also as royal financiers, even though they were still targeted by the Inquisitions.

Yes, they were engaged in pretty much every commercial activity, starting from Carreira da India through Peru - Manila - Japan bullion trade and finally to buying slaves for Brazilian sugar plantations.

What a difference a week makes. They’ve now totally exposed themselves to a legitimate critique that they treated two sets of riots differently based on politics. Imbeciles.

So veterans are being threatened with arrest if they don’t leave the Cenotaph. I’ll file that policing action under the ‘about a week too late’ category.

Far right vs anti-racist. God this language use is positively Orwellian.

On the bright side, some of the chants are lit.

An ex-servicemen is hacked off. Can’t say I blame him.

Lord what a mess they’ve made of things.

Is an anti-racism protester someone who is protesting against anti-racism?

That’s a rather good question.

That’s pretty laughable as an argument.

It’s not a surprise. If there is systemic racism to be found there, it’s going to be against First Nations.

Forget Churchill is a racist,

Tea companies in #solidaritea tweets for BLM.

I can hear single shot bolt action rifles being readied across the land, haha

I strongly suspect there will be renewed calls to take these statues down to prevent far right violence.

I’m also pretty sure the U.K. press will not refer to today’s events as ‘mostly peaceful.’
