Poor analogy. The word Jew is nowhere near as offensive as the word Nigger. If you want to make a comparison, try the word Kike to describe a Jewish person, now THATS offensive. | ||

Maybe I don't know him well enough but I think there is no sarcasm. If this is really the lunch without any side dishes I wouldn't call it healthy or even a balanced meal. EDIT: Ok, he says it's sarcasm but with the latest requests for more healthy, hot meals I wouldn't call this an improvement. Well you live there, so you gotta know it :D | ||

If you call someone "hey Jew" or "Jew" it's racist. And you'd be lucky if they didn't get in your face. I would. Why tolerate someone profiling you by race/religion? | ||

I'm kinda disapointed. MoW has to rearrange their accounting, or the boss(es) is/are really as greedy as mentioned. I do understand that it isn't easy to manage such a project, but if it doesn't work out, something has to change. If they not change anything, i won't shed any tears. Bankrupt as earned. | ||

Desrow used the word "jew" as a cuss word, as an offensive word, as a racial slur. but i guess its up to you to decide what is offensive. | ||

Why tolerate someone profiling you by race/religion? At least in my culture, when you say "I got jewed" or "You are a jew" means the exact same thing as " I got close to nothing" or " You ripped me off " Still, using that diction is totally unacceptable. | ||

He used it like this: Jew = greedy or stingy person Jew is not a racial slur, its a pejorative term. The word Kike is a slur. Look it up on wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racial_slurs | ||

Its unfortunate that the whole issue of the living conditions in pro-gaming houses and MoW's shady business practices are being overshadowed by Desrow's poor choice of words. Re: nigger vs jew. I assume the context of the words isn't the same in Europe vs North America because of the different history of these minority groups within their respective countries. Nonetheless, saying one is worse than the other is irrelevant because ultimately, it doesn't change the simple reality that these are loaded, damaging words when they're used like we see here. | ||

Look it up on wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racial_slurs have you tried reading the link you have posted? lol he called some one a jew to depict them as greedy. how is that different from calling someone a "dirty jew"? any way - he used the word "jew" to be offensive. i guess "you drive like an asian" isnt racist as well. what ever makes you feel better at night man. | ||
