I think I'm missing something. Even if it is a Star of David, how does simply having one on screen makes it anti-Semitic?

quote:

The futuristic cartoon shows the world of sport being taken over by an evil conglomerate that clones existing soccer stars, but whereas the original stars are all colorful people who take risks in the way they play, their clones are all gray and take no risks at all.

The conglomerate's symbol, worn by the clones, is the pattern formed by the hexagonal patches that are typical of soccer balls – but is also very similar to a Star of David. In one case, at least, it is worn by a basketball player.

MK Shimon Ohayon (Yisrael Beiteinu), chairman of the Knesset anti-Semitism panel, said, "The new anti-Semitic propaganda is very sly and transmits its anti-Semitic messages in a sophisticated way, an example of which is the Nike ad, which uses Jewish symbols in its sports merchandise to put across anti-Semitic messages.
(it's a cog)


As far as I can tell, Arutz Sheva is an Israeli equivalent of Fox.

Yeah I dunno. Most mass shooters are gonna be white because of differences in population size. And I don't know if schizophrenia discriminates based on skin color. But I wonder why you don't see black kids in the early 20s shooting up their school when you have middle-class white kids doing it. I don't mean gang violence or anything, just indiscriminate murder-suicide killing spree.

Some say it's cause as a white dude you're more often raised to think the world owes you, you're super special and awesome, everything in the world is there just for you, you're gonna make it big any minute now, etc. so you have a higher chance of snapping in this way when things don't go the way you want them to.

I think that must have something to do with it. Higher rates of suicide as well. You probably have to adjust your life expectations more if you're black. One thing I notice with the mass shooters is that they appear to feel isolated, no purpose or meaning in life, filled with suburban ennui, etc. despite not facing any financial or material shortages. So I wonder if black Americans have a stronger (and healthier) sense of collective or community identity which can help ward off these things.

I want to knwo what Microsoft used as a definition of "work". Cause while I'm sure plenty of google glass wearing tech executives have probably conferences called while taking a poo poo, work is such a broad label that this feel more than a little masturbatory.

Apropos of Tony Blair's whining, here's the graphic his foundation uses to explain exactly what the hell it does, which seems to be "encourage kids to play sports" but of course neoliberal demons have a hard time saying that (or anything) without lots of sexy graphics and if they did say it plainly then maybe people would start wondering exactly what good Tony Blair is for any of it, and he could be carted off to the Gemonian stairs, I mean quietly retire and leave us all alone.

In response, some passionate Dragon Ball Z fans decided to spread the Gospel of Goku.
