No actually it’s pretty good, because it’s time the word dies and the special protected status of the Jews that no other people or race has is forgotten about. After Gaza, anti-Semitism isn’t a thing anymore and thankfully gen Z has no loyalty to Israel
Speaking of, what children? The “40 beheaded babies” which babies, I can give you a list of thousands of children with their names and ages of just the confirmed who are dead that goes on for many many minutes of non stop scrolling
You think you have a nuanced take but it’s actually pretty brain-dead and pointless. You are essentially saying you want status quo. If someone comes to your phone, rapes your grandmother, and murders your grandfather and expels your mum and dad and you, later you see one of their kids, you beat them up, are you no equally as bad? Was it right to beat up a kid who may have had no part in it? Sure, but is it uncalled for and equally cruel? Absolutely not.
Running off like a little removed ay, come on bro 6TH CENTURY WHITE JESUS. Where is it then lmfaooooo Average hardcore high school drop out Lemmy user in his mom’s basement moment
That’s 15 century from Germany, are you stupid as fuck? Hes also clearly Jewish and showing showing characteristics as medieval Europe knew he was a Jew. Where is white jesus then?
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?
Black isn’t a race, could you not figure that out?
Catholicism comes from Christianity comes from an event in middle east and is a successor to Judaism which again is from the middle east, could you not figure that out?
Show me 6th century white jesus? This should be interesting I already checked 😂
Why is it always the losers who cry about weird things like instance, make the biggest stink always the least educated people. The fuck you get your knowledge from? Intensive anime watching?
Awww you gonna cry you massive baby, somebody goes against you and start crying .ml user you Virgin. I chose this instance by random but my god do I love how weird losers on the internet get so attached to weird meaningless things.
That’s the 15th century so Germany didn’t make the white jesus as you said 6th century right? Please cry more. Where is is this 6th century white jesus btw?
Germany nor Poland made the white jesus, your bringing up an entirely moot point
I can already tell you’re not at all well versed in this topic. Have you heard of a concept called trade mate? Did you know that before the Roman empire even existed a network of trade and safe passage was made that could traverse from China to the furthest western point of Europe including India, the steppes and African trade (east coast). Also you keep going back to 'black people" like wtf is this discount American eugenics take. Bro the religion is middle eastern, people knew what they looked like, there’s thing thing called art and sculptures which help those who never seem one understand what they look like. But none of this even matters you turned into a race thing, it was a cultural shift, the 14th century did a white jesus start coming up in some obscure art and didn’t really take off till the 20th century (white jesus) Just another fat L, Tel Aviv wasn’t a thing back then, tf you choose that awful fucking city full of earth’s worst people. call it by it’s real name. Jaffa
They’ve seen Arabs and Semites haven’t they… The land where jesus is from. Why you talking like jesus is from the heart of Africa
Arguably still better than America but worse than most of Europe Being British sucks. At least I have the cop out of saying I’m Scottish
Unless you live in uk, then its basically go fuck yourself
I don’t think you are mate 🤣
Thank you, Edinburgh is a beautiful and lovely little city, i reslly hope you enjoyed it. Which charity shop was it may I ask?
Read the post title again
Was not expecting to see my city here.
What bad timing when a 1/3 of south Asia currently isn’t the biggest fan of India rn. Sure it’s a great game tho
China isnt funding a literal genocide anyone can see daily attrocities from on fucking Instagram. Oh and before you say uguyrs do you think we’re dumb enough to think the west cares about Muslims, let alone Chinese Muslims? The UN is a toothless western organisation!< to give America and certain European nations the power to “police” the world. If it was real American leaders would have been hauled off for what they did in Iraq or Afghanistan, the coups in middle east, south America, Asia and etc
What are you talking about, America is the worst at it by a mile
