My god…is this true?

[OddBeMe]

No!!!

It’s all bullshit.

[RebelinSteel]

The result of this is to quote the result of some mad Americans. It started with some fuckwit Canadian woman and was picked up by some fuckwit Americans, which unfortunately also hits funding.
https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/theres-nothing-racist-about-anglo-saxons/

it would be good if Canadians and Americans stopped their bollox and kept out of stuff they do not understand.

From a piece on this entire thing.

The term Anglo-Saxon has become controversial due to the connection with WASPs or “White Anglo-Saxon Protestants”. However, English identity, contingent on Anglo-Saxon history, ethnicity, and culture, is not dependent on what American liberals say over 3000 miles away.

The short version is the Americans put pressure on Cambridge on the use of Anglo Saxon and how in the US it was a racist term, Cambridge to avoid any hassle just changed the name, the real culprits are fuckwit Canadians and Americans.

[RebelinSteel]

Yet more bloody trolling with an old story.

[Drewtate]

Woke politics going crazy. They think that to end racism that White people have to be robbed of their culture and history.

Far as I know Anglo saxons are a general term to describe ethnic English people descended from the Angeles, saxons and jutes that settled in England after the Romans pulled out of England, these Germans mixed with the local celtic-Romans and would again mix with Norwegians and Danes and this ethnic identity has existed for over 1000 years.

[OddBeMe]

Who’s white? Italians? Greek?

[Drewtate]

Well Italy when the western Roman Empire fell was invaded by the Goths and then taken over by the lombards. Both these germanic groups are said to have migrated from Scandinavia, then later from eastern Europe. Greece is said to be a mix of the people of those ancient Greek city States and Romans who moved into the Eastern empire when emperor Constantine moved the capital to the east and then later more Romans as western empire collapsed. Scililians are a mix of Greeks, Tunisians, Italians, Arabs, Scandinavians and the orginial scililian people.

Back in the day in America most Europeans besides turks were considered white though disliked if they were Catholic or orthodox which means only English, Welsh, some Scottish, some Irish, most Germans, Scandinavians, Dutch etc. White Anglo Saxon Prodestants or WASPS.

[Sevenpointfive]

are jews white? isn't that the reason for this media conspiracy?

[Drewtate]

@Sevenpointfive when it suits them they white, when not they an ethnic minority.
But yeah they white. This is the logical conclusion of wile politics. It's like that incident recently in woke Germany where protestors protesting Islamic violence got attacked by a knife welding Muslim who they had to restrain, the woke German police's instinctive reaction was to attempt to arrest the protestors for being attacked resulting in the knife weilding Muslim to get free and stab a police officer in the neck and then having to be shot.

[OddBeMe]

Wow some antisemitism there.

See race is stupid.

[Drewtate]

Less antisemitic than liberals and the democrat party these days. Even neo-nazis are shocked.

[OddBeMe]

No just idiots who have no empathy for Palestinian children.

[Sevenpointfive]

@OddBeMe
i'm so sick of the jew crying antisemitism when they don't get their way. go back to israel if you really believe it.

there's this one story about a rabbi, his wife and a fellow traveler being kicked off the plane. he said i can't sit next to a woman that isn't a blood relative. calling out JetBlue and it's staff for antisemitism because of his religious beliefs!!!

has this guy never flown before? i mean seriously, what did you expect? the world doesn't revolve around your jewish beliefs that want to ruin everybody's name that isn't jewish. that's an attack on gentiles. i sure hope JetBlue wins that one.

[Drewtate]

Calling for genocide of the Jews in Israel from the river to the sea isn't antisemitic?
You ever been at a BLM protest? Very antisemitic though not reported largely in the media

[Drewtate]

@Sevenpointfive the rabbi should have booked 2 seats.

[Sevenpointfive]

i thought the blacks had an in with the jews. maybe that stopped when they wouldn't let the black jews into israel?

[Drewtate]

@Sevenpointfive they did let black Jews into Israel. In the 70s& 80s they saved a bunch of eithiopian Jews of beta Israel. Basically they are hebrew descendants from the time of King saul/david/Solomon who set up a colony/kingdom in eithiopia. Hebrews b4 they split into Jews & Samaritians built towns and cities all the way down the red sea coast as far as Yemen and across to eithiopia. This kingdom was called kush and later became a Christian kingdom but some stuck to their hebrew roots. Unlike Jews in their centuries of disporia they mixed with neighbouring Africans through the maternal line and eventually came to be more African than Semitic. History is very interesting, for a time Yemen was a Jewish king like kazan in central Asia, both did it to have a religion politically independent and free of influence of rivial muslim and Christian states. Jews spread out throughout the Roman empire, to India, persia and as far as China while the Samaritians stayed.

[Sevenpointfive]

yes. drew. but that was 40 years ago. they won't do it now

[Drewtate]

@Sevenpointfive they full up plus you have to be born a jew of Jewish lineage. You couldn't convert and decide you want to live in Israel

[Sevenpointfive]

unless you marry a jew

[OddBeMe]

@drewtate That’s…literally apartheid, isn’t it?

[Drewtate]

Or it's anti colonialism.

[OddBeMe]

What foreign group is trying to control Israel?

[Drewtate]

There are many that surround Israel.

[OddBeMe]

So giving extra special Jewish blood more rights than others is ok then? Thats a reach.

[Drewtate]

You think non-citzens of Muslim countries should have the same rights as citizens? It's harder for a Palestinian to immigrate to Egypt or Saudi Arabia than it is to Israel.

[dustybiker2]

Just charge the parents, make sure payment goes through, then plug the kid into a computer for a couple months and download BS. The 👀 into the future. No studying, no effort, no honesty or personal thoughts. Neat and tidy.

[Juxtapose]

You're bullshiting again.

[OddBeMe]

“The Anglo-Saxons, in some contexts simply called Saxons or the English, were a cultural group“

Uh oh

[Juxtapose]

No shit Sherlock.

[Juxtapose]

The fact that you act like people didn't know that is ridiculous.

"Black" is also cultural.

[OddBeMe]

Culture groups versus race? Are we agreeing Anglo Saxons are just a social construct?

[Juxtapose]

It is as much of a social construct as being black is.

[OddBeMe]

Huh…then we agree.

[DrPepper12]

I'm quite certain that the Angles, Saxons and Jutes existed. WTF?

[RebelinSteel]

@DrPepper12 there is more to the story than the headline post lol.

[OddBeMe]

Sure but are they a tangible trait? Or just history and geography?

[SweetJoyGirl]

So, where did you learn your history? 😂
