Only time I see Jew used is when people are whoring isk. Its not in an offensive way. Just hanging onto old stereotypes.

Only time I've ever seen Jew in this game is this thread and when my Jewish friend calls me one

you in a 1 man wh corp?

all I ever see is jew-this and jew-that player names with jew, corp names with jew, bios

you must live under a rock

the event that supposedly occured in the past happened so long ago that nobody here remembers it or cares, and the people it happened to havent changed a lick, so forgive us if we arent jesus...

did i get that right?

In this game? Why the hell do I see the word jew used as a prejoritive here more than anywhere else, without anyone speaking up in channels when it happens?
I used to see Goons as loveable scamps but the term they came up with for their cabal and used repeatedly in the self congratulation thread was just sickening. And it just gets snipped? Is it really not a big deal with anyone?

France and Germany still care and have very strict rules about it.

I just had a butter knife pulled off ebay because it has a reich stamp as one of the manufacturer marks.

I'm at the receiving end of Jewish banter all the time from IRL mates so maybe I'm desensitised.

Then again I'm not even Jewish besides looking Jewish...

Then again people could also learn to be not such a little ***** about things and man up.

Being one of God's chosen people has it's downsides...

What would you like done about it?
Forum bans? Word Censorship?

There are companies and organizations that take ppl and sue them for **** like that on their own.

OP how many threads about offended "ruskies" you see in this forum? None?

As a homosexual Jewish person, the term "Jew" is not offensive.

As i recall god never stated that you folks could actually stop wandering, so I'm not too sure about this whole Israel thing....

Raising awareness on the forums that people may be taking the stereotype a bit too far is gentlemanly of you (i.e. try to nip the problem in the bud with a little awareness and community self-policing before calling in the heavy hand CCP to intervene.) But if you're genuinely offended or concerned that the jokes/humor have wandered into the realm of exceedingly poor taste or straight up hate speech, then petition it.

I would like to think that most Eve players understand the difference between general asshattery and evil. Meaning, I would like to think that folks are on the "You Don't Mess with the Zohan" side of the line instead of the "Achtung Juden!" side.

Are you jewish?

This thread hasn't died yet? Then allow me to explain why the Goons' use of 'Jew' is so offensive:

See, Jews are famously bad at making money. It's like, if you put all the Jews in the world on an island, you'd have another Haiti and all the world's NGOs couldn't squeeze any prosperity out of it. We sort of already have this with Israel: at night, satellite pictures show it as just a dark void, completely surrounded by the bright lights of its far richer neighbors. If you flew over it at night, you'd be surprised that anyone actually lives in the darkness below. Finally -- I really don't want to go on with this highly sensitive stuff -- Jewish-Americans are famously settled on the bottom rungs of achievement when compared against other ethnic groups, by any measure you want to use. It's one the small tragedies of the modern world, really. In America, in 2012, the average Jewish family only has a few thousand dollars in savings, and they are grossly underrepresented in secondary student populations and high-paying jobs.

I'm not saying this to hurt anyone's feelings or to say anything bad about Jewish people. It's just how things are right now, and IMHO the best way to correct things you don't like is to understand exactly how they are right now, so that you know where to focus efforts.

So, back to 'jewbal' and 'jewing': the Goons are mocking Jewish underachievement, making light of it, just like The Mittani made light of that poor guy's problems. They must be stopped! It's an extremely hurtful thing, to highlight what a people are bad at. Next thing you know they'll be calling people 'Kenyans' because they're so good at running away, in mockery of world efforts to get the morbidly obese of that country (no offense) to get some exercise in.

I know I touched on some sensitive topics here, but I hope I contributed to the thread, and did something to support the OP's complaint.

By the looks of this thread, non-Jewish people are more offended than the actual Jewish people.

I'm a Jew and i'd just like to say Israel and circumcision.


Also id like to say. Jew McJew Jewey Jew Jew.


Everyone gets trolled here and Jews get off lightly.


Consider how much junk Americans gets get dumped on them. Or English or the rest of the Eurotrash and they never complain




Start a jew baiting thread and i will troll you, your mother and all your mothers lovers into the ground.


Here is my POS for your entertainment. Its has no defences as its protected by Shyster Lawyers.

Love the excuses and pretending things aren't what they obviously are.

It's nice that we've come so far that anti-antisemitism and cultural stereotypes are just some hipster joke.

Where is Stenssen when you need him?

France and Germany still care and have very strict rules about it.

Ever realized that language changes over time? No amount of pouting on your part is going to prevent that.

I guess it's about time for Europe to figure that out again. And then forget. Again.

For us to figure out what? That language changes?

sticks and stones. htfu.


... kids these days ...

you want em to htfu?

lol

imagine the PR disaster it would be (in the stupid US anyways) if the frequency of use of those words getting thrown around here were leaked lol

There are companies and organizations that take ppl and sue them for **** like that on their own. Like the NAACP and ACLU (mind you they dont care if the company ISNT in the US theyll do it anyways)

The only religious group I see roaming in space right now are a bunch of Catholics (looks at the Amarr).

Not Catholics. Probably Russian Orthodox.

Reasons being the white American and Europeans are mostly Protestant and tend to reject rigid religious hierarchies that zealously control the interpretation of their religions works. (The rigid hierarchy and control is in place to avoid the problem of random crazies pushing random crazy interpretations.) The current Catholic Church has embraced multi-culturalism and multi-ethnicism which doesn't fit well into the pasty white Amarr genotype and attitudes towards racial purity.

The Russians on the other hand, I feel that I can completely stereotype and/or jump to conclusions as being a bit xenophobic towards non-Russians. Plus, Siberia is full of vast untapped natural resources, and Russian history tends to favor authoritarian rule. I would speculate that in the future, the US and China turn the world into a mess with their competition and Russia emerges as the dominant culture war winner/survivor. So, xenophobia, the orthodoxy of the Russian Orthodox church, Siberian resources, authoritarian rule, and a high value on tech, national pride/status and space achievements would make the Russians the natural progenitors of the Amarr dynasty.

Didn't you know? if a bunch of non-jews decide the term isn't offensive, then you obviously can't be offended by it. Bashing minorities isn't offensive if they don't "really" mean it.

Personally, I think it's a growing internet trend because people are tired of being reminded all the time by Jewish people how bad the ****'s were. We all know they were bad and we know they did bad things to you.. we don't need fancy coined up terms like
"Anti Semitism" to remind us why ****** was bad.

In fact the actual phrase "Anti Semitism" is a ridiculous term in the first place, because why do Jewish people seem to think they need their own special phrase or word for racism? Yes we understand the evil ****'s did bad things to you.. but guess what, they did bad things to other people too. .

It predates the crazy genocidal man with the funny mustache who tried to take over Europe.

I see players with 'Jesus' as their first name. This does not offend me at all.
It is a very common name in use for males in Portugal.

I see players with 'Koran' and 'Mohammed' in their names. Why should this offend anyone ?

I see the word 'Jew' used as a noun, adjective, invective verb and other flavours in the English language. If you take umbridge or feel insulted about this, then I urge you to reconsider what you are actually upset about. It's a word - you as an individual put whatever meaning you wish behind it. If it offends you, you have lost at the game of life, nevermind Eve.

It is no wonder that intelligent Aliens from other worlds (not bent on destroying us), give this planet a wide berth in their travels.

We have not matured as human beings. Hatred, religion, superstitions, wars, greed. The list goes on.

Eve is a mirror, how can anyone realistically expect it to be anything else ?

Political correctness is the bane of humanity. Get over word-use, get over being so sensitive. Grow.

I call a spade a spade and a Jew is a Jew, nothing more and nothing less. My Rabbi friend would be insulted if I did not tell him daily that he was a Jew. Be proud of being a jew and when you see the word being thrown about so freely and carelessly, laugh, because you know from whence you came.

That, or don't post in GD expecting mercy.

Stalin?

There are bad things happening at this very moment all around the world and bad things have happened throughout history to various groups of people all over, yet there are only a few groups that seem to make it their goal to constantly remind everyone of these bad things trying to make it seem like everyone owes them a favor.

The OP thinks "Jew" is an offensive word? That's racist.

I'll just leave this here

i think we need a special word because we make up 0.002% of the worlds population but yet the world likes to blame all thier problems on us...

Not sure about Australia, but I think their big boogeyman is pornography.

Which is pretty ironic cause France and Germany have no problems selling weapons and dangerous tech to unstable and prejudiced people.

Got to love 2000 years of persecution based on the premise that they may or may not of killed someone who may or may not have lived.


Logic FTW!

If I say "I'm going to jew up the ISK", I'm actually being pro-semitic.

I will not stand to see my heritage spat upon by some petty forum-neonazis. Antisemitism is a crime in many country, and for good reasons. .

Learn your history better. They were already persecuted before the whole JC incident.

Quoting for truth. See The Old Testament or Tanakh.

Does that make me an antisemite? Or even worse a forumnazi?

And a wise word to end this whole crap with.

Being jewish isn't being a race, it's being member of a religion.
Else we might get a lot of races like russian jews, hungarian jews, american jews, austrian jews, german jews etc etc.

You said it. There are "religion-Jews" and "race-Jews," to put it simply. Morgorathi went into some detail a few posts up. It's also possible to be of the Jewish race and not practice the religion, of course.

The theory that the majority of Ashkenazi Jews are the descendants of the Khazar population was advocated by various racial theorists[48][49] and both semitic and antisemitic sources[49][50][51][52] in the 20th century, especially following the publication of Arthur Koestler's The Thirteenth Tribe. Genetic studies indicate that the Askenazi population had limited genetic mix with Eastern European populations.[53][54]
This belief is still popular among groups such as the Christian Identity Movement, Black Hebrews, British Israelitists and others (particularly Arabs[55][56][57]) who claim that they, rather than Jews, are the true descendants of the Israelites, or who seek to downplay the connection between Ashkenazi Jews and Israel in favor of their own. ,

Lessons learned in this thread: Even using the word "jew" is anti-semitism, even if it isn't used in a hostile manner in any way, shape or form.

It's people like you who make the world a worse place to live in for everyone. Congratulations. May you be visited by braying donkeys.

Drink some juice and chill

With all seriousness though I think its time I make a serious post on this.

I am descended from one of the very few actual Hebrew jews before the European Khazars came over and ruined the entire region. Its the Europeans who can't take a joke and attempt to bash any free speech or open dialogue on race relations.

The treatment of the African jews by the "True jews" from europe is deplorable.

To be a "Jew" you have to be descended from the loins of Judah. Khazars/Ashkenazi/European jews are not from his line therefore not Jewish as a race but group that has corrupted, destroyed and twisted Judaism into some kind of ~Le Haute Club de Magnifique~.

I'm fine with people using "Jew" in any context, if it has come a by-word for something then so be it.

What about Big Digger Nick? I mean, C'mon!

Being Semitic isn't a prerequisite of practicing Judaism. Just like you don't have to be Arab to practice Islam.

So yes there's Religious jews and race jews. The "Being Jewish is a religion therefore not racist" line is just some garbage rhetoric people hide behind so they can deny being a racist.

Except that 'Jewish' is not technically a race.

Post above is ignorant of dna

Semites are just people who speak a language from the Semetic language family. Not a race.

I'm a semite, I speak arabic. Jews are people who descended from Judah IE not the Khazars or Ashkhenazi. Majority of jews today come from the Khazars or Ashkhenazi although to most people anyway they are interchangeable. They are Europeans not middle eastern.

When you provide the DNA Evidence i will look into it, if it is accurate and from a reliable source i will accept.

This theoryGǪ is supported by no evidence whatsoever. It has long since been abandoned by all serious scholars in the field, including those in Arab countries, where the Khazar theory is little used except in occasional political polemics

A 1999 study by Hammer et al., published in the Proceedings of the United States National Academy of Sciences compared the Y chromosomes of Ashkenazi, Roman, North African, Kurdish, Near Eastern, Yemenite, and Ethiopian Jews with 16 non-Jewish groups from similar geographic locations. It found that "Despite their long-term residence in different countries and isolation from one another, most Jewish populations were not significantly different from one another at the genetic level... The results support the hypothesis that the paternal gene pools of Jewish communities from Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East descended from a common Middle Eastern ancestral population, and suggest that most Jewish communities have remained relatively isolated from neighboring non-Jewish communities during and after the Diaspora."[85] According to Nicholas Wade "The results accord with Jewish history and tradition and refute theories like those holding that Jewish communities consist mostly of converts from other faiths, or that they are descended from the Khazars, a medieval Turkish tribe that adopted Judaism."[86]
A 2010 study on Jewish ancestry by Atzmon et al. says "Two major groups were identified by principal component, phylogenetic, and identity by descent (IBD) analysis: Middle Eastern Jews and European/Syrian Jews. The IBD segment sharing and the proximity of European Jews to each other and to southern European populations suggested similar origins for European Jewry and refuted large-scale genetic contributions of Central and Eastern European and Slavic populations to the formation of Ashkenazi Jewry."[54]
Concerning male-line ancestry, several Y-DNA studies have tested the hypothesis of Khazar ancestry amongst Ashkenazim.[87][88][89] In these studies Haplogroup R1a chromosomes (sometimes called Eu 19) have been identified as potential evidence of one line of Eastern European ancestry amongst Ashkenazim, which could possibly be Khazar. One concluded that "neither the NRY haplogroup composition of the majority of Ashkenazi Jews nor the microsatellite haplotype composition of the R1a1 haplogroup within Ashkenazi Levites is consistent with a major Khazar or other European origin"[88] and another that "if the R-M17 chromosomes in Ashkenazi Jews do indeed represent the vestiges of the mysterious Khazars then, according to our data, this contribution was limited to either a single founder or a few closely related men, and does not exceed ~ 12% of the present-day Ashkenazim

A 1999 study by Hammer et al., published in the Proceedings of the United States National Academy of Sciences compared the Y chromosomes of Ashkenazi, Roman, North African, Kurdish, Near Eastern, Yemenite, and Ethiopian Jews with 16 non-Jewish groups from similar geographic locations. It found that "Despite their long-term residence in different countries and isolation from one another, most Jewish populations were not significantly different from one another at the genetic level... The results support the hypothesis that the paternal gene pools of Jewish communities from Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East descended from a common Middle Eastern ancestral population, and suggest that most Jewish communities have remained relatively isolated from neighboring non-Jewish communities during and after the Diaspora."

Jewish descent is Matrilineal not Patrilineal. It may show that the males are of middle eastern and jewish descent but their children are not.

Before 2006, geneticists largely attributed the genesis of most of the world's Jewish populations, including Ashkenazi Jews, to founding effects by males who migrated from the Middle East and "by the women from each local population whom they took as wives and converted to Judaism." In line with this model of origin, David Goldstein, now of Duke University, reported in 2002 that, unlike male lineages, the female lineages in Ashkenazi Jewish communities "did not seem to be Middle Eastern", and that each community had its own genetic pattern and even that "in some cases the mitochondrial DNA was closely related to that of the host community." In his view this suggested "that Jewish men had arrived from the Middle East, taken wives from the host population and converted them to Judaism, after which there was no further intermarriage with non-Jews."[46]
However, a 2006 study by Behar et al.,[1] based on high-resolution analysis of haplogroup K(mtDNA), suggested that about 40% of the current Ashkenazi population is descended matrilineally from just four women, or "founder lineages", that were "likely from a Hebrew/Levantine mtDNA pool" originating in the Middle East in the 1st and 2nd centuries CE. Although Haplogroup K is common throughout western Eurasia, "the observed global pattern of distribution renders very unlikely the possibility that the four aforementioned founder lineages entered the Ashkenazi mtDNA pool via gene flow from a European host population:
"..Both the extent and location of the maternal ancestral deme from which the Ashkenazi Jewry arose remain obscure. Here, using complete sequences of the maternally inherited mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), we show that close to one-half of Ashkenazi Jews, estimated at 8,000,000 people, can be traced back to only four women carrying distinct mtDNAs that are virtually absent in other populations, with the important exception of low frequencies among non-Ashkenazi Jews. We conclude that four founding mtDNAs, likely of Near Eastern ancestry, underwent major expansion(s) in Europe within the past millennium.."[1][46]
In addition, Behar et al. have suggested that the rest of Ashkenazi mtDNA is originated from ~150 women, most of those likely of Middle Eastern origin.[1] However, other studies by Behar indicate that this mtDNA is different from other Jewish populations found outside of Europe, leaving the possibility of a separate origin or even a European origin a distinct possibility

The irony in this post is palpable.

oh fkcu i have to now bring in mitochondrial just to shut you up?

ok here goes.... read the entire thing please first

Can you get me a non-jewish study?

You made a shitty joke based on your own misconceptions and were called out on it. Face that instead of trying to weasel out of it.

they aren't being called out on it at all, there's just a thread about being butthurt for the sake of being butthurt even though the remark causing butthurt probably isn't even relevant to them.

tl;dr too much unnecessary butthurt.

the thing is, people are just looking at what an individual word means and start crying about it rather than looking at the context of the entire scentence/paragraph/article/whatever. the simple fact is when some one glances at a sentence and sees "jew" "jewing" etc, they instantly know it's about making isk where as just isk alone has a multitude of meanings. when you're in the game, nobody gives a toss if you're as white as milk, as black as the ace of spades, or pray in the direction of mecca 5 times a day, people just don't care about that. hence it leaves these kind of words free to use in a totally different context. the simple thing is, the use of the word/phrase in this context allows people to convey more information in a more efficient way. that in itself really isn't a need to start crying.

infact, a few months ago my friend said to me "ever since i started working i've been really jewish with my money" i instantly knew he'd been spending less and saving more and it was faster for him to say that because it just conveyed more information to me without him explaining his entire financial situation to me.

then again i'm just bitter and think all religion should be banned because it's ******* moronic, but there we go.

and we can't have people calling other people names that wouldn't be politically correct and in PC land we're all so much better people because we never say bad things but we still think them, but since we don't say them we can pretend we don't hurt anyone even though actions speak louder than words

Why would I need to weasel out of a post that just says "Jews being persecuted over stuff that never happened is ridiculous"

Dude you need to chill.

Everyone else may think there funny even members of the community being made fun of but some people will be offended [...]
