Wow, that kind of hurt to read. If Jewish was a race then so would being a Catholic or any other religion. There are plenty of black, asian, korean, etc… Catholics out there so I have no idea what this guy is talking about. This feels like a “We feel persecuted so we need to make ourselves even more insular.”
No thanks. Being Jewish is your religion, that’s all.
IMHO that’s pretty much it. Once labels start being thrown around you start getting problems. You end up with a country split in half for no other reason than labels. George Carlin had a quick bit on it.
I’m w/ that totally.
Long ago, even before I welcomed in libertarian ideas into my heart, I questioned many of these things that causes divide amongst us.
Perhaps it was growing what/who I was in NYC where I had good times w/ every kind of person but my first thought after meeting someone isn’t what race/color/nationality/economical-class they are.
There is a level of beauty in all our sizes, shapes, colors-- but thats all it is for me.
@blackie This just disintegrated into some weird SJW tumblr conversation. The reason why @LibertyPenguin and @FriarRich are not answering the questions directly is that they are so obvious they really don’t need an answer.
Adam Kokesh is white. (maybe? We really don’t know his genealogy but let’s assume for the sake of argument that he is).
Sammy Davis Jr. is black.
No, race isn’t something you can choose.
This entire argument that he makes, as I stated before, just tries to put them into a more “special” camp. The question we should be asking is “is this a bad thing”.
Not the label I was thinking of. More like specific ones. Liberal, conservative, CIS, transgender, etc… More nuanced labels that just further divide us.
