Exactly
passingtime85, with all due respect, I must correct you on an incorrect statement you made regarding Jewish history.
You stated (a few years ago), that Jews originally came from Mesopotamia around Ur of the Chaldees, presumably based on the Biblical account. There’s no historical, archaeological, or genetic evidence of that. In fact, that appears to have been a Canaanite creation myth i.e. a fictional story like Hans and Gretel. I would assume you’re not familiar with the work of Israel Finkelstein, but if you get the chance, look into him. He’s a very notable archaeologist who’s shown Israelites, and ultimately Jews, were indigenous to Canaan and didn’t come from Mesopotamia or some other vague region of West Asia as you have suggested. Like I said, there’s no evidence of that.
I have blathered almost as much as anyone, that has ever commented on this website, so forgive if I don’t recall precisely what was said. Also, much more than just a handful of my comments have been deleted by the administrators, and not even the the entire discussions, just my side of the discussion. There’s a few conversations still up where the other people’s comments exist and refer and respond to me like an invisible, silent phantom, only they could respond to. It’s funny in a certain way to be honest. A little disheartening that other much worse insulting and hateful conversations are permitted to stay up, but w/e, the admins do what they want.
One of the admins never got over me suggesting she/he had an autism spectrum disorder, because she/he cannot make associations like a normal person, or understand when someone is trying to change the subject, so we don’t harp on the same impasse ad nauseam. That back and forth was deleted real quick, probably because the admin dropped an F bomb, as an exasperation not an attack, and that’s not a good look for the site either way. I made one more reference to the admin’s disorder, and last time I checked it was still up, somewhere, and she/he was much more cavalier about it, but we haven’t had any animosity for years…other than deletions.
But I chalk that up to not wanting the site to be associated “racist” rhetoric that’s outdated, rather than a direct attack towards myself. Also my ramblings are inordinately long, so I can’t blame them for pruning.
But what I specifically remember, and I could be wrong, is that the biblical account says that Abraham was from Ur, and that it could be several locations with the strongest possibility being in modern day Iraq. But I went on to say that often people like to attribute their heritage to someplace else, and give themselves a migration aspect to their history. I’m pretty sure I said they were most likely just a local tribe from Canaan.
I could be wrong, or may be mixing up bits and pieces of past conversations, but I think that would’ve been my claim, because it’s the only history I ascribe to, if I said otherwise, I am or was wrong.
Thank you for your feedback, I probably misconstrued what you said. I’m sorry unhinged admins have abused their privileges and deleted your comments, harassing you. I’ve only had an account here since earlier this year, but have been snooping around here since the early 2020s (I just didn’t have an account).
Didn’t mean to act overly critical, just thought it was important to be historically accurate. Also, if you’re into biblical history, Israel Finkelstein has made some very interesting work. He’s done a few documentaries and written a few cool books.
It’s fine. The admins are fine, they’re mostly insulating the site from outside criticism. Many of my comments and the notions I back, have been and is actively being stricken from anthropological and biological study. Whether the information I share is right or wrong, science is trying to distance itself from the older classifications. One because of optics and two the possibility people can weaponize the information, and use it as justification to admonish or marginalize different people. So if the admins feel like what I spout isn’t what they want to platform, I blame current culture, and not their choice to protect themselves. They might just disagree and feel like I’m being ridiculous much of the time, and that’s why they delete my comments, but I’ll give the benefit of the doubt.
Don’t worry about being critical or pedantic, accuracy never hurt anyone, maybe annoyed them a little with the exacting detail, but it’s mostly alright, and ultimately helpful. Keep commenting and engaging, you seem cool.
I know of his work and have ran into it from time to time, but I never really delved into it, in more than a cursory manner. But maybe someday I’ll give him a proper read/view.
This guy “myfellowwhitepeople” is Indian or Pakistani. If not, a latino from Central America, from Cuba or Mexico.
I’m not you, you filthy thing
*@Surf that’s very likely
Go dance samba in the favela, Jonas
You’re not white.
I think “myfellowhitepeople” is a POC posing as a white person. The dialect of this individual and some of the slang they use makes me believe they might even be someone from the east coast of the united states. Europeans do not use some of the slang they use. I actually agree with some of their points but every now and then they accidentally let the mask slip off. It also doesn’t help that some of their responses scream “generated from chatgpt”.
I think you need to go f##k yourself along with Andrew
@italiano
Definitely agree, it’s very possible, the whole thing seems like projection and need for validation
It’s quite sad actually
Shut up and go back to the favela, Jonas
Yeah in this case I agree to you mutt& poc who use a nickname to act a race and ethnicity which doesn’t belong to you, it’s an American and Indian-Arab-Hispanic this over obsession for races and untolerance towards some ethnicities.
Lololol and the must absurd thing is that they call non -white and Jews some Europeans who are white because they are and too many pocs as…. white and even Nordic!
Aaah, you non-Europeans are a very serious trouble for this world.
@to italiano90 , you talk of and to youself too, great.
Please ban oaken05, Jonas, and follers. The three of them are filled with hate and lauren mayberry thinks banning them is a great singer. She is Scottish and sees the three of them as evil@
She also said follers cursing out Members is unprofessional and obnoxious. Don’t let follers destroy this website great reputation.
I also agree that Andrew, madman, and passing time should be administered with ethnic. The four nicest people on this website!
Sorry I meant to write admins
Are you serious about andrew he spams.
