here we go:

"As anthropologists and other evolutionary scientists have shifted away from the language of race to the term population to talk about genetic differences, historians, cultural anthropologists and other social scientists re-conceptualized the term "race" as a cultural category or social construct—a particular way that some people talk about themselves and others."

(wikipedia lol)

Now stop talking about jews being a race since it's clearly becoming outdated and scientists prefer populations.

Calling somebody a jew due to a perceived greed is not anti-semitism, it is stereotyping. Had the person he was speaking to actually been a jew or if desrow actually has something against jews, maybe different. But as it stands, there is no grounds to call him an anti-semite based on the situation we are presented. Calling somebody a jew is a VERB.


This is a top 10 low-point post on TL for me. And that's saying something.

Thanks for clearing up the motivation and acceptability of calling someone an offensive, reprehensible word. The part of speech call out was especially classy.


You get use to it, this place is no different compared to reddit in regards to racism and general misogyny.


Jew is not a racial slur. It's an ethnic term. Also it is a contextual term. Clearly Desrow was being offensive but to call him racist for using a phrase many people use on a daily basis out of anger is just terribly incorrect.


Kinda sad that the people you choose to associate with use someone's religion as a way to stereotype them negatively.

edit: Or that you're under the extremely wrong impression from...I don't know where...that people use the term "jew" a lot to describe greedy people.

I think TL is worse than Reddit in terms of racism lol. DesRow was essentially implying that Jews are greedy and that trying to save money at the expense of the players is something a Jew would do. On what level is that not racist?


It's not racist because "jews" are not a race, I can't believe this is a difficult definition to apply for some people.


It is actually a race. I can't believe people are still spouting this BS despite having no knowledge of genetics or how race is categorized. TL is truly worse than Reddit in terms of ignorance towards racism.


Speaking as a university student in a graduate level course in genetics, Jews are not a race. Sorry to dispel your ridiculous theory about my apparent ignorance.

So black Jews and Chinese Jews are the same race? XFD Sorry dude, did you not think this one through?

Speaking as a published, widely cited, and Nobel prize winning geneticist, Jews are most certainly a race. Refer to my previous post in this thread:

A genome-wide genetic signature of Jewish ancestry perfectly separates individuals with and without full Jewish ancestry in a large random sample of European Americans

Here we show that within Americans of European ancestry there is a perfect genetic corollary of Jewish ancestry which, in principle, would permit near perfect genetic inference of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry. In fact, even subjects with a single Jewish grandparent can be statistically distinguished from those without Jewish ancestry. We also found that subjects with Jewish ancestry were slightly more heterozygous than the subjects with no Jewish ancestry, suggesting that the genetic distinction between Jews and non-Jews may be more attributable to a Near-Eastern origin for Jewish populations than to population bottlenecks.

Thank you, I was looking for that. There's also the abnormally high incidence of Tay-Sachs disease in certain Jewish populations which shows that they have a unique genotype. Blue Lanterna, you may want to reconsider getting your Genetics grad degree at community college...


You may want to reconsider looking up the definition of race, because it's obvious you don't have the reading comprehension necessary to figure out that you cannot "convert" to a race, and any studies that are being quoted are of an ethnic group, not of all Jews.


You have been proven wrong multiple times in this thread and you're still grasping at straws and semantics. Look up the definition of race and you'll see that it's a very loose one. It can include ethnics distinctions, genetic distinctions, cultural distinctions, etc. W/e the case, I don't buy into people trying to justify bigotry and discrimination.

Quoting ONE study that doesn't prove your point conclusively and telling everyone who doesn't think it does doesn't understand "high school genetics"? That sounds more like grasping at straws to me.

Edit: Since you're the one arguing that jews are a race, YOU have the burden of proof to show that they are, and you haven't, so nobody should take what you posted as evidence that they are at this point.

I'd like to apologize to those whom I offended. Calling someone a Jew is inappropriate, I was obviously not thinking clearly. However, there is no acceptable excuse. I'm not a racist person, and I promise I will try to handle myself better in future situations. I hope you all accept my apology, and understand it was a mistake I made out of anger

It is actually a race. I can't believe people are still spouting this BS despite having no knowledge of genetics or how race is categorized. TL is truly worse than Reddit in terms of ignorance towards racism.


Speaking as a university student in a graduate level course in genetics, Jews are not a race. Sorry to dispel your ridiculous theory about my apparent ignorance.

So black Jews and Chinese Jews are the same race? XFD Sorry dude, did you not think this one through?

Speaking as a published, widely cited, and Nobel prize winning geneticist, Jews are most certainly a race. Refer to my previous post in this thread:

Jews are indeed a race. Judaism is a religion which teaches Jews that they are the Chosen race.

A genome-wide genetic signature of Jewish ancestry perfectly separates individuals with and without full Jewish ancestry in a large random sample of European Americans

[image loading]

Here we show that within Americans of European ancestry there is a perfect genetic corollary of Jewish ancestry which, in principle, would permit near perfect genetic inference of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry. In fact, even subjects with a single Jewish grandparent can be statistically distinguished from those without Jewish ancestry. We also found that subjects with Jewish ancestry were slightly more heterozygous than the subjects with no Jewish ancestry, suggesting that the genetic distinction between Jews and non-Jews may be more attributable to a Near-Eastern origin for Jewish populations than to population bottlenecks.

Thank you, I was looking for that. There's also the abnormally high incidence of Tay-Sachs disease in certain Jewish populations which shows that they have a unique genotype. Blue Lanterna, you may want to reconsider getting your Genetics grad degree at community college...


You may want to reconsider looking up the definition of race, because it's obvious you don't have the reading comprehension necessary to figure out that you cannot "convert" to a race, and any studies that are being quoted are of an ethnic group, not of all Jews.


You have been proven wrong multiple times in this thread and you're still grasping at straws and semantics. Look up the definition of race and you'll see that it's a very loose one. It can include ethnics distinctions, genetic distinctions, cultural distinctions, etc. W/e the case, I don't buy into people trying to justify bigotry and discrimination.


Quoting ONE study that doesn't prove your point conclusively and telling everyone who doesn't think it does doesn't understand "high school genetics"? That sounds more like grasping at straws to me.

Edit: Since you're the one arguing that jews are a race, YOU have the burden of proof to show that they are, and you haven't, so nobody should take what you posted as evidence that they are at this point.

You are ridiculous. I don't believe for a second that you are actually a graduate student of any sorts. The evidence has been posted and I really couldn't give two shits if you believe it or not. Why should I waste my time scouring the internet to remedy your ignorance? I can barely decipher your post...


The fact that you couldn't even figure out that being in a graduate level course does not correlate to being a graduate student speaks volumes.


The fact that this is your rebuttal, a product of your own inability to form coherent arguments, speaks larger volumes... I'm done with you. Have a nice one.


If I wanted to have what, in your mind, is a coherent argument with you, I would post a singular study showing inconclusive results when compared to the point I was making and act like it had been proven.

Not a huge deal, imo, just poor taste. I'm sure you didn't know you were being recorded. Better to just make a habit of weeding that out of your vocabulary used in that manner to avoid crap like this, right?

You fat shit. Its people like you that cause all these irritating racial slurs like "jew", "spic" and "nigger" to propagate and infest the internet. How many times must I have to look through a random youtube video or replay and see any of the above thrown around callously?

I have no experience with jewish people but it seems that most people say they are greedy, so what ? I saw the same retarded thing about black people, being racist by simply saying that blacks have unfair advantages in some sports. Most stereotypes, even tho they are dumb, they apply in a general sense.

Every different man comes with his different predispositions to different traits...What's the big deal in pointing that out ....It's not like these folks are talking about purity of race or being good or better to be this or that rather than the other.

PS: I'm totally against racism, but what he have today is rather than actually a sense of coming together regardless of race or color ( and by the way my best friend was black, he died sadly in a car accident 1 year ago )a sense of cultural pressure to try not to offend other people's cultural values. Most of these PC guys are either very stupid or secretly huge racists ( unless they work for a company with a retarded policy ... which is necessary sadly ).

Edit: Narjila gratz on that compassionate message, forgot you're supposed to fight racism with hatred. Let's kill the racists!!!!!!!!!!

Why does everyone crying racism or saying something racist always need to mention they have a black friend...
