I see this shit on the internet all the time, and on the forums here too - people abusing the word "jew".

This is from an earlier thread about someone suggesting steam make keys addable to inventory (he was exposed as only wanting to trade indie games for money; scumbag behavior).

(from original poster) => I see nothing wrong with that

Thats ok, because you are a jew. Anyway selling steam keys for money leads to disabling your steam account, so we can report you.

Wtf is up with this horseshit? I'm a jew - proud to be one, proud of my people's heritage. So I am offended by and look down on the idiocy involved with using the word "jew" to mean "cheap, miserly, stingy, unscrupulous, immoral, selfish" etc etc.

Also, thinking of the history behind this makes me even more mad. Historically, jews have always been traders and merchants in many places where they were ostracised and even outlawed from exercising certain professions. I'm not a religious jew, but have studied judaism (as well as other religions out of interest) and it even tells you to trade fairly and honestly in the Talmud, one of the books of the Torah. Still, being so maligned and forced into being an opressed minority, when the same people who had persecuted them and pressed them into the corner of society wanted to trade needed goods with them, OF COURSE THEY KEPT STEEP PRICES. The people then bitched about it, and the image of the stingy jew was born.

Hitler and his cronies used this image and pumped it up further, calling jews "rats that feed of of Germany's wealth and spread faster than we can contain them".

Nowadays, due to the past still holding sway, some still use "jew" to mean all the above named negative shit.

FUCKING STOP IT, YOU UNEDUCATED, SENSELESS MORONIC IMBECILES. YOU WANT TO CALL SOMEONE CHEAP, IMMORAL, OR UNSCRUPULOUS? GET A FUCKING VOCABULARY AND CALL THEM THAT, THEN.

Okay, I'm going to put this down nice and softly...

You want people to stop being racist and disrespectful against you and other people, which I understand! But the problem here is that you yourself are calling almost all the others dump, stupid and such things. It isn't being racist like what you are insinuating, but it's too very disrespectful. You shouldn't hurt people mentally when you yourself doesn't like it. Not everyone is your enemy. If you'll be nice, people will be nice back at you. Be mean however and everyone will call you a jew, because after all: this is the internet and they know they can enrage you with that... and believe me, many things are said on the internet which aren't meant or wouldn't be said in real life!

why is it always the jews that always cry loudest about everything? everyone else on the planet just hardens up and moves on with their lives, but if you hear someone whining, its probably a loud, obnoxious in your face jew.

Orly? I assume you're just trying to troll me here. There's a bunch of overly zealous zionists that have whined about a lot and ruined the reputation of jews in general, too. They don't represent all jews, and their behavior certainly doesn't make my bitching here illegitimate.

Anyway, good going on the racism! Reported.

big whoop. yeah it happened, doesnt mean you can say 'THUS YOU MAY NEVER EVER JUDGE ME AGAIN'. im an athiest. perhaps i should hold up a big card telling everyone what the christians did to athiests and thus never ever be judged again? please. he needs to grow up and learn that JUST because hes a jew, doesnt mean he gets to have everything his way, and that he can never feel insulted.

I sympathize with your fervor, but I doubt this will accomplish much to be honest.
My advice: Open a support ticket. People have been banned from the forums for racist remarks before.

Protip: If you get offended on the internet and start a thread about it, prepare to be more offended than before.

Sadly, its not the internet, its the way we as people read things. I could write something that doesn't mean anything offensive to me, but someone else can mistake the tone of my comment and thus be upset. Words are words and semantics is a word. Chill.

It's not the getting at me personally that gets me. It's the fact there's so many ignorant, insensitive, unempathic assholes walking the earth. Honestly, make me king for a day and I'd throw them in prison for life. Tolerance is good, and I'm a very tolerant person, but I don't see issue with intolerance for intolerance. There's always people either being dicks, or acting better than dick-ish behavior. Where's the grey, in between area of harshly defending what's right?

Thanks for the comment though. Anything that makes me think from anothers' perspective is good :)

Please dont make threads on political, religion, race or anything that may spark up a conversation of the sort. For it is against the rules. Thank you.

I understand that there are people that can be inconsiderate about how they express themselves but remember its the internet people will say what they want, and there are kids who dont know better.

Offended by words on the internet? Until your last line in your post, you were mature.. Then you showed your real colors with your little immature, all-cap line and your replies here. You can't complain about people being immature, if you go ahead and spew out immature comments as well.

Orly? Please, I'm not pretending to be a moral fucking savior, I'm not pretending to be anything, really. I might be an absolute asshole myself. It's absolutely irrelevant to the point I'm making though. And for you to respect my message until you read some of my anger (which is still formulated with no racism or the like) is quite stupid, if you ask me.

I may not a jew, but this is the internet. Religion insults, Race and skin racisms, they're everywhere, I'm islamic and sometimes found a joke about us as a common terrorist but I have to deal with it, what can I do? I'm only a gamer here sitting infront of my Computer reading angry threads and how to cure cancer.
The thing you should do is just report to support, I have seen someone being banned for racism here.

Look into cannabis oil or medicinal marijuana with high CBD / CBN values. Depending on the form / progression of the cancer, it can send it right into remission and cure!
