I'm Jewish and have been told very angrily that I killed Jesus more than once. It's fun.

Shouldn't she be more scared of us? We have a space laser and we killed God according to her. What would possess her to cross us?

Plus, we control all the banks. Let's set her bank accounts to zero!

They already would be if we forced her to pay back the $183000 in PPP loans she got during Covid.

In my mind was MTG, "Magic The Gathering". And I was highly concerned what they are up to again.

Never go full Mel Gibson.

[–] _haha_oh_wow_@sh.itjust.works 6 points 5 months ago

Of course she did lmao

But if Jesus wasn't killed, Christians would be doomed, so why are you mad that he was killed?

[–] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.de 5 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Probably not doomed. Their god would just not sacrifice himself to himself to convince himself that people no longer needs to perform blood sacrifices to him to get themselves undoomed by him. Not much would change, we'd be having a pagan Easter with chocolate eggs and no religious connotations, and some people would burn a lamb or turkey every once in a while.

Channeling her inner Mel Gibson

[–] tiredofsametab@kbin.run 5 points 5 months ago (10 children)

I grew up in one church that loved to talk about "the synagogues of satan" and other "fun" stuff like that, so I don't think anything like that is uncommon (particularly in Baptist circles, but probably also outside of it). Some of the kids I grew up with would say "that's Jewish" for something uncool. Pretty sure there parents were full-on anti-Semitic white supremacists. This wasn't even in the south. Glad to be out of that shithole.

The Bible is an "antisemitic fable"? Well thats half right.

[–] tobogganablaze@lemmus.org 4 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Is this real? Because I'm pretty sure that was a South Park episode ....

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yes, it's real. As I said, it's happened to me more than once. In fact, I can remember one time where I was kind of worried about the level of anger for my personal safety, although nothing happened.

Don't underestimate pissed off religious people.

Yup. MTG is unironically a Cartman fever dream.

[–] bartolomeo@suppo.fi 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

According to the Washington Post, backers described the bill as designed to help the federal government crack down on the protests, which they see as having antisemitic elements. Some Democrats objected and argued it was an effort to restrict political protest.

The measure passed by a vote of 320-91 on Wednesday.

Ah yes, the Christ-like compassion of MTG.

[–] snownyte@kbin.social 3 points 5 months ago

I'd like to not be reminded that this cunt exists and got breezed into Congress. We know anything she does and says is blunt catering to the psychos in the country.
