Greetings!

Damn, Mistwell. That is sad, my friend. Don't feel ashamed for being Jewish, Mistwell. There's nothing wrong with being Jewish.

Do not despair, or lose faith. There are many Christians here in America that stand with you, and are your friends.

From the comments at Tenkar's:

"Andy ActionFebruary 10, 2020 at 2:25 PM
This guy has always been an open and proud bigot.
This comes as no surprise to anyone who's been paying attention.
In the current climate (both in the U.S. and in the old school RPG scene), he has no need or reason to hide.
He is just appealing to his customer base, sadly."

Well, that does it. This guy represents all of us, and we're all Nazis. Time to get fitted for a Klan hood and SS uniform.
The notion of an exclusionary and hostile RPG community is a fever dream of zealots who view all social dynamics through a narrow keyhole of structural oppression.

Quote from: Brendan;1121694Saddened as well and frustrated.  
 
I get it to some extent.  If your only exposure to Jewish people are the talking heads CNN trots out to support their ideological crusade you're going to come away with a skewed POV.   I don't like those people either.

Greetings!

Good points, my friend! Hell, if you grow weary of Leftist Jewish talking heads on CNN, tune into the Daily Wire, with Ben Shapiro! Conservative, smart Jewish man. He's fucking brilliant, and funny, too.

I wonder if Bledslaw has always felt this way, or if these attitudes of his are a more recent development? Brendan, what the fuck is a Goyim? It always boggles me how anti-Jewish people somehow think everything, everything wrong in the world is somehow the fault of "The Jews!"

But stand by, my friend. The LEFT here in America and in Europe, is deeply anti-Jewish. Just listen to our own sweet Muslim fucking congresswomen, Talib, Imal, whatever the fuck. "The Squad" as our President Trump calls them. I used to hear the sweet Liberals join hands with the Muslims in college, having their rallies and protests, and screaming about how evil America was, and how evil Israel is. They increasingly hate Jews, and want nothing but violence and death. They are shameful, evil, and disgusting, Brendan. And the Liberals talk bullshit out of their mouth's when they speak about love, and "tolerance." Yeah, well, for all the Jews that vote liberal in this country, they should think about who their true friends are, you know? I saw so often in college about how peaceful, and noble, and wonderful Islam is, but Jews and Christians are evil and monstrous. Over and over again, Brendan. All pushed by Muslims, and Liberals.

I hate to say it, but the Liberals would throw Jewish people to the sharks to be eaten, you know?

Indeed.  I generally like Shapiro and respect him a lot, although I'm more a libertarian than he is.  

Haha.  Well, that's the thing with antisemities.  If they get a bad sandwich at a restaurant "da joos" did it.  There's actually a Jewish equivalent - the paranoid anti-semite finder.  If they get served a bad sandwich at a restaurant they're convinced the chef must be a NAZI!  Just goes to show that people are paranoid and stupid everywhere.

What's a goyim?  Technically we all are. Goyim means something like "People of a/ the nations".

The Torah uses two words to refer to groups of people: Am, which is like a family or "a people", and Goy which means something like "a nation" but not necessarily blood related.  In the Torah Israel is sometimes referred to as a goy (a nation) and sometimes as an am (a people), and other groups of non-Jews are sometimes referred to as "nations" and sometimes as "peoples", but frequently the Torah refers to the Jews as being sent out among "the nations" (Goyim) to serve as a n example and spread God's word (the Torah).  Religious Jews read the Torah... well... religiously, and so this word "Goyim" entered common Jewish discourse as an indicator for a member of these "nations", aka, a non-Jew.  

Now, I'm not going to pretend that no Jew ever used it in a pejorative or exaspirated tone, but the word itself is not insulting and Jews themselves don't think of it that way.  It does however sound a little dismissive and the usage is somewhat archaic.   I don't remember anyone in my family or synagogue using the word unless they were pretty old.  Generally most modern Jews prefer the euphasim "Gentiles" to refer to non-Jews, when they need to make the distinction at all.  Many Jews are also in "mixed marriages" so the distinction between Jew and non Jew doesn't make sense anymore.  My wife's family, for example, are Christian.  My mother's mother was Sicilian Catholic.  

(I'm personally fond of what my Lebanese-descended father in law writes on survey forms when they inquire as to his race:  "American" - but I digress)

Antisemites however have seized upon "goyim" as a term of distinction.  They like to imagine that Jews are always thinking about non-Jews as some kind of "other", talking about them and trying to control them.  It's a classic case of Freudian projection.

Regarding the left throwing the Jewish people to the wolves - not only would they, they have, and they are.  Look up the attacks on Jews in NY and on college campuses.  And like any group, our biggest struggles are with ourselves but Jews are waking up.  My dad is a great example.  A life-long Dem he voted Trump in 2016 and most certainly will again this year.

Quote from: Brendan;1121687Brad likes to do this sometimes.

You know I'm Jewish, right..? Wtf do I care if some old idiot is a racist or whatever, it has nothing to do with products he most likely had zero influence in creating.

Further, I thought Goodman or Frog God owned all the actual rights to their stuff, or was that simply republishing?

I did not, but I was referring to jumping into conversations to tell people that the conversation is dumb or boring or pointless.  I get it.  I've had the impulse myself, but it is kinda silly when you stand back to look at it.  If a topic is stupid or silly, just ignore it.

To be clear, I am not calling for some sort of boycott (I don't do that sort of thing - the art isn't the artist).

I am more like damn, this sucks. Who can I talk to that would understand why it sucks to see an RPG creator you like turn out to be a dickhead like this? Oh yeah, the guys at theRPGsite!

If you're not feeling it, OK cool. I can see why you think this is not germane enough to RPGs.

Some of the stuff hes spouting I read about way the hell back in the 70s and apparently it goes at least back to Roosevelt.

Bledsaw I was an RPG industry legend. Did Bledsaw II create anything worthwhile? I only know him for the Kickstarter screwup where he accidentally let Bledsaw III run off with all the money...

Mmmmm, no. Everything is pretty much in Bob Junior's hands at this point. Now his son, Bob Bledsaw III, is the one that did the failed Kickstarter which still hasn't delivered all the goods by the way, and Bob Jr. recently (last year) took it over and is working on getting everything cleaned up. He gave permission to Rob Conley to complete and deliver the full color Wilderlands maps, and they are using the proceeds of that as well as the Goodman Games republication of certain adventure modules to finish and fulfill the Kickstarter, however the whole project is barely inching along.

As far as I know neither Frog God nor Goodman have the rights to any of the Wilderlands IP, however they received permission to use the original modules to create new adventures for 5e D&D. I also know that two of Bob's other brothers who live down in Kentucky or Tennessee are a bit unhappy about how they have handled their fathers legacy. I miss Bob Sr. He was a great guy, a great gamer, and very business focused, he would have had everything taken care of a long time ago!

When I was with Bob Sr. We never discussed race, religion, or politics, except for the race, religion, and politics of the Wilderlands.

Very interesting historical and theological stuff, Brendan. I love it. Shapiro is fucking great! *laughs* I love how he shreds these whiny fucking SJW's! *Howling* Just picture it, Brendan. I drink some good coffee, light up a fine cigar, and watch videos of Ben Shapiro stomping all over SJW's. It's time very well spent! On occasion, it definitely brightens my day! I also highly recommend Daily Wire Backstage, where Shapiro, Michael Knowles, Andrew Klavan, and Jeremy gather around a table, drinking, smoking cigars, and talking politics. They have this nice blonde girl who is like a host, where she talks to fans and fields questions from subscribers. She's funny as hell, too.

Indeed, Jews and Christians have been mixing for a long time here in America. Jews, Irish, Italians, among others. Beautiful. Have you noticed that Alan Dershowitcz, long-standing Liberal Lawyer, came out in support of President Trump, and blasted the Liberals for wanting to Impeach the President? That got my fucking attention. He's pretty damn sharp, and known as a Constitutional expert.

All these fucking anti-Jewish bastards seem oblivious to the fact that lots of Jewish boys bled in the sandy beaches fighting against the Japanese in the Pacific, and many also spilled their blood alongside their fellow Christian and whatever American citizens in fighting and rolling back the Nazis in Europe! Jumping into the fire over Nazi Europe, to protect America, defeat Nazi Germany, and liberate a broken and crushed Europe from slavery. Nah, we can't think about that. That's an uncomfortable truth.:D

Sad fucking idiots.

Oh yeah, you're right. They are throwing Jews to the fucking wolves right now. It's fucking insane. If the Liberals get into power, my friend, you know what you can expect, right? I'm stoked your dad voted for Trump! Fucking awesome, my friend! More winning! More making America great again! It's especially sweet to see the Liberals literally break down into sobbing hysterics!:D
