As a homosexual Jewish person, the term "Jew" is not offensive.

I'm at the receiving end of Jewish banter all the time from IRL mates so maybe I'm desensitised.

Then again I'm not even Jewish besides looking Jewish...

Then again people could also learn to be not such a little ***** about things and man up.

I just had a butter knife pulled off ebay because it has a reich stamp as one of the manufacturer marks.


Which is pretty ironic cause France and Germany have no problems selling weapons and dangerous tech to unstable and prejudiced people.

you want em to htfu?

lol

imagine the PR disaster it would be (in the stupid US anyways) if the frequency of use of those words getting thrown around here were leaked lol

There are companies and organizations that take ppl and sue them for **** like that on their own. Like the NAACP and ACLU (mind you they dont care if the company ISNT in the US theyll do it anyways)

And, isn't sanity really just a one-trick pony anyway? I mean all you get is one trick, rational thinking, but when you're good and crazy, oooh, oooh, oooh, the sky is the limit.

Forum bans? Word Censorship?

Lets just isolate all offenders in one system without gates. This works in Gaza.
Also special logos near avatar to all offended and perk "Dont ever talk about jews while I'm in chat channel. Offending other nations is fine".

OP how many threads about offended "ruskies" you see in this forum? None?

Stuff like that just adds to the steaming pile of **** this world has become. Anyone can turn on a sensitive air and milk someone for all their worth "cus money".

You think this anti-Semitism is bad? You should hear some of the **** me and my Indian friend say to each other.

All sorts of prejudices run rampant on the internet because people are anonymous. It'd be fantastic if people would just stomp it out like you suggest, but at the rate people call things "gay" as an insult, you'd never be able to stop typing if you tried.

If somebody says something especially ignorant or hateful, I'll just block them. That's what the feature is there for.

This IS NOT A PROBLEM SPECIFIC TO EVE. Its a problem with the internet in general, as well as the rampant homophobia. Ever play xbox for 10 minutes? You'd think EVE-O players would be more mature, but lol. You gotta remember that some of EVE-O's largest communities are from outside the game, and are generally comprised of 18-30 yr old white male basement dwelling neckbeards, where racism and homophobia are allowed, and probably encouraged.

Depends.

When referrring to a person's religion or ethnic background, its probably ok. When using the word to infer some shady, nefarious all controlling conspiracy type (see Jewbal, portmanteau of jew and cabal), kinda not ok.

Well, actually, He does tell them that he will gather them from all corners of the earth to return to "their pasture." So, in fact, He does end their "wandering."

There 12 tribes in Eve (three bloodlines for each race). That is not coincidental: We are Space Jews.

As we are all Space Jews, hence its all self-deprecating. You know, Jewish humor. A few anti-semite goyim might join in the fun, but sometimes you can't be kosher no matter how one tries.

That said, Jewbal is actually an ironic play on the blood libels people spread, both making fun of its idiocy and shocking and offending (as goons must).

Got to love 2000 years of persecution based on the premise that they may or may not of killed someone who may or may not have lived.


Logic FTW!
