I think she's awesome, I would vote for her. They're normally a dull bunch, someone in parliament has to provide the comedy.

Aw! I heard about the Jewish Space Laser Lady, but after reading the original tweet, it's a lot less crazy than I was led to believe.
I mean, it's still crazy, but I was expecting orbiting death lasers with the Star of David on them, not a take on orbiting energy transmission sattelites.

Hey, we had to start somewhere! It's just a prototype. The next version will be better, I promise.

Now to find a forest moon to base it for construction purposes.

Yeah, I was a bit disappointed as well. 
It seemed pretty bland for a conspiracy theory considering how the article was touting it.
They weren't even real orbital lances and the whole Jewish part was a stretch.

All she did was mention Rothschild, Inc a couple of times, but she didn't have the 5 or 6 antisemitic 'nudges' in the post.  Normally, the antisemitic ones always have to insert a few references to 'certain people' that have all the subtlety of a second grader trying to hide something from their parents.

If I laugh at that article, am I an anti-semite?

Wait don't answer that - I was banned from TBP for loving Oriental Adventures as an Asian. So it's probably true.

[BoxCrayonTales]

If you wrote fantasy where Judaism is a religion that humans, dwarves, goblins, etc can be part of, then would that be antisemitic?

She didn't suck the cock of every scion of the Rothschilds when she used their name in the post therefore she's an Antisemite.  Any vaguely negative mention of our "betters" by anyone right of Mao or lighter in shade than caramel is not to be tolerated.

Apparently she watched History Of The World Part 1 and thought it was real:

Does this mean I have to stop telling my Jewish players that if they bitch about the rest of us ordering Hawaiian pizza they're going in the oven?

BTW, we need MANY more articles like this one. The most exciting way forward for WotC to receive its much deserved total collapse is for nobody other than SJW freakjobs to consider playing their games because WHO THE FUCK would want to hang out with anyone like the fucknuts who write these articles and Twatter garbage who support it?

Greetings!

Exactly, brother! WOTC can choke on all of this stupidity.

Tolkien made his Dwarves with a nod towards being similar to the Jews? Fucking good! Jews should rejoice, and be proud. Tolkien's Dwarves are widely and deeply beloved by millions of fans world wide.

Clannish, grumpy, pragmatic, passionate Jewish Dwarves are fucking awesome! YES! The stereotypes, such as they have been alluded to, are fucking great. Who cares? Lots of them have aspects that have always been true. Any honest Jew will tell you the same. Everyone has stereotypes, and many of them remain accurate. Again, so what? Stereotypes are part of what makes life fun and interesting. Most Jews I know have a good sense of humour--and appreciate very much--and celebrate--their many cultural stereotypes. Just like Germans, Italians, Irish, Mexicans, Russians, Filippinos, Japanese, Greeks, and fucking everyone. Oh my god! Some book uses someone's stereotypes! Oh geesus. Fuck off and die in a fire.  [...]

Shark, my friend, I love your wisdom and witty remarks. This. A thousand times this.

The problem with the type of people that write articles like this is a simple one: they've been raised with a nihilistic, post-modernistic worldview and mindset.

They are incapable to appreciate, admire or even understand myth, symbolism, metaphors and religious thought (which is not the same of being a religious person). Personally I think they cannot even appreciate beauty itself (as defined by Dostoyevsky).

Finding offense with everything is just a symptom of this.

Man, Mel Brooks would be skinned alive if he tried that shit today.

That is the problem with Jewish space lasers, they always have to keep it secret.

You know that if there was a Scottish space laser then Glasgow would be in ashes right now.

Isn't the problem with racism that it treats people as inferior? The dwarves are coded as Jewish, but they're never portrayed as villains to my knowledge. You could even argue that The Hobbit is promoting Zionism.

That's a very good point! And you're absolutely right. Tolkien's dwarves are always portrayed are very brave, honest, loyal, hard-working, and resilient. They never give up, no matter the odds. And they still survive despite having lost most of their strongholds and cities under the mountains to dragons and worse.

Anyway, it reminds my of the recent wave of hysteria of "orcs are a racist depiction of [insert real world ethinicity here]". I've been playing many different systems since the early 90s and literally no one ever made this correlation between orcs and ethnic minorities. Never. Not surprisingly, it started with racist people projecting their own biases and prejudices into the game.

And even back in the 90s you had people arguing over whether it was moral for paladins to kill baby orcs/goblins/whatever.

Nowadays orcs are a hugely generic trope. Sometimes they're evil, sometimes they're good, sometimes they're misunderstood, sometimes they're soccer hooligans.
