The descendants of colonisers are pissed you would dare say that

Is that because the concept of country is a European conception? Also what grave are most of the of the old world built on? Iran, china, Iraq, Syria, India etc etc

I’m not extrapolating anything, on the words of Israel and every western government. I’m not saying I agree and I’m well aware that many Jews are anti Zionist. I don’t give a shit about your word, it means fucking nothing when kids are getting starved and shot to death st Israeli led aid drop points.

Genocide is infinitely more important than “antisemitism” when the “Jewish state” calls anything going against them as anti Semitic. If you wanna know why the world is absolutely gonna hate Jews in the younger generation, it has absolutely nothing to do with with colonial European ideas and more that, never again meant, learn from Hitler and become worse than him and cry antisemitism as some sort of protected victim class.

They would ignore that and Egypt would get egypt would get its shit rocked. Not to the fault of the Egyptian people but your govt and military are fully in bed with Israel and are a disgrace to the ummah, as are most sunni nations. The real heroes are the resistance

Modern Israel is a non functional regional fire chucker that attacks all its neighbours. The ultra orthodox’ Jews are often decent people, most of Israeli society is absolutely devoid of humanity so in comparison the real Jew is infinitely better.

The "ultra orthodox’ is an actual Jew who understands their faith. It’s ironic really how what they say means very little in the Jewish state

China isn’t engaging in genocide or actively attacking and bombing the planet you fucking idiot. Also Russia and Ukraine are NATIONS both with armies, navies and all the other good stuff other then manpower difference being Russia isn’t even remotely democratic so to blame the people is unfair when they have no say in the matter.

Why you delete your comments then coward? Telling me to grow up when your throwing ignorant shit out there like a edgy little 16 year high schooler. Learn some humanity, since your clearly lacking it

This is an insane take which requires significant proof. You have any or talking out your racist ass? I’m sorry the group that’s not being persecuted isnt doing enough for Palestine when it’s Europe and America who alone fund the Israeli genocide. Jesus Christ what an lack of critical thinking

Yeah your right, Scotland, Ireland and Wales had no say, not fuck Britain, fuck England

It’s actually fucking insane Churchill and his policies killed 4 million Indians while he was in office and you call it “precisely the monster required at the time” fuck if you think so lowly of brown people I guess Hitler was the monster required for the time too, he broke the western European colonial empires to the point their empires crumbled not long after. So 6 million Jews, makes Hitler the most evil man on earth but 4+ million south Asians dying under Churchills watch is “precisely the monster required for the time” you fucking dunce

Okay buddy, no retort and echo chamber have scrambled your brain. The world doesn’t revolve around Europe and Americas perception of the world, your important topic isn’t the world’s. And I never said anything about explicit sides, only that India is currently playing both sides as a member of bricks and a occasional friend of America and Europe. One of the few smart policies they have actually

I personally do care for Ukraines sovereignty, but I’m from Europe, if me speaking on why Indians don’t logically care about Ukraine makes you so butthurt, it proves my point that India can play both sides and shouldn’t care

Europe needs India, India doesn’t need Europe, most of the worlds manufacturing is now in China and India. Why you talking about Finland and Ireland when we both know who runs the western world… Last I checked Donald trump, Keir stammer, Emmanuel Macron arent fininish

Fuck the BJP but at the same time, why should Asia follow it’s former European enslavers. We know British or the west doesn’t care for Ukraine only for a weaker Russia and India is playing both sides as a massive economy. Good for them!

5 miles away from spawn point, the furthest I’ve lived is 300 miles away but in the same nation, my spawn city is absolutely home to me, even if not ethnically from here, I am very privileged to be born here

Found this on Reddit a great write up on someone telling someone equally as unqualified as you on the topic in words Far cleaner than mine. Go have a read without a Hentai break if you can

It’s only in recent years that he’s been consistently portrayed as a white man by Western (particularly American) Christians.

I’m sorry, but this claim of /u/best_of_badgers is just not true. They’ve cherry-picked individual examples without any sense of their historical context and skipped an entire millennium of western Europe. A millennium in which, if David Nirenberg is correct, Christian icongraphy was a major vehicle for working out concepts of racial difference before “race.”

Medieval European (and Middle Eastern, for that matter) scholars inherited from antiquity the idea that climate affects the development of those native to the region–this will play an important role in the evolution of scientific racism into the early 20th century. The closer to the equator, the hotter the temperature–the angier, earthier, and darker-skinned people got. Centuries before “black” and “white” accrued their modern American meanings, medieval Latin writers were describing and illuminators were painting white and black people. There are a few cases, like the famous Spanish manuscript known as the Book of Games, where the depictions seem to mirror the diversity of the painters’ experience to some extent: the illuminations feature dark-skinned and light-skinned Saracen men, and light-skinned Christian and Saracen women alike (the Christian men are all light-skinned). But especially when depicting situations of Christians vs. Saracens, as in illustrations to the Song of Roland, the Saracens are uniformly dark-skinned and the Christians light-skinned. The association of Christians as white and Muslims as black persists in literary descriptions. In medieval romance, characters with one Christian and one Saracen parent are even described as black and white spotted. Or when a Saracen character converts to Christianity, their skin color physically changes from black to white.

So European artists were well aware that native residents of more southern lands tended to have darker skin. And yet western European medieval Jesus is white. It’s 14th century mystic Birgitta of Sweden who gives us, through her visions, the tradition of Mary as not just white but blonde. Her Jesus, too, shines with white light.

I want to highlight a second iconographical development over the later Middle Ages. Iconography is all about the use of visual shorthand to convey meaning. In earlier art, into the high Middle Ages, depictions of Jews are recognizable above all by their hats, sometimes also by their clothing. But over the later M.A., Jews start to take on what we now see as “stereotypically” Jewish features (stereotypically thanks to Christian-incubated iconography), primarily darker features and a hooked nose.

Medieval Christians knew Jesus was Jewish. Some theologians and pastors occasionally made a big deal out of it (typically in an anti-Jewish context). Do medieval illuminations and woodcuts of Jesus and Mary give them the stereotypical hooked nose?

No, they bestow that feature on demons and the devil.

Depictions of Jesus are iconographical: they represent concrete theological and often political claims. In western medieval art, the depiction of Jesus as “like us” reigned supreme and served to demarcate, isolate, and condemn everyone else. "

So bud when you showing me that 6th century white jesus?
