Well, @palefirefox decided to block me, which is actually probably fair, given that I’ve been relentlessly calling him on his bullshit. Before he did though, he did claim that he didn’t say any of the things I accused him of in my numbered post last night, and that I couldn’t find quotes. (bottom of my post included so you can see that it is what he's responding to):
Tumblr media
I made the list I made by going through his blog, so some of them might be hard to find, but here’s what I could pull just from what’s on my blog (I highlighted the relevant parts on the longer bits because I didn’t want to be accused of taking anything out of context but there’s a lot to read):
Judaism isn’t a real religion/ Judaism doesn’t allow converts
Tumblr media
If Judaism does allow converts it’s a Zionist plot
Tumblr media
Palefirefox has “expertise in cultural history” that the members of the culture that is under discussion (Judaism) lack.
Tumblr media
Being Jewish doesn’t mean you know more about Judaism than palefirefox does (given the way it was used to “answer” the question, I’m interpreting the below to mean that because Christians aren’t necessarily experts in their religion, Jews aren’t either. Which is actually a fair point, but it doesn’t answer the question of how he knows more, and also it’s easier to know when someone is wrong than to produce the correct answer yourself. I pointed out that the average Christian might not be able to name all of Jesus’s disciples, but they can probably tell that Odin wasn’t one of them.)
Tumblr media
He has claimed that antisemitism isn’t a valid term because “Semite” refers to both Jews and Arabs, so Jews can’t use it to refer only to themselves
Tumblr media
He has said that he won’t consider any evidence coming from the USA in general, and has disregarded provided links to proof because they weren’t quality (including the OED and BBC websites)
Tumblr media
People claiming to be Jewish who are telling him that he’s wrong are probably lying and shouldn’t be believed
Tumblr media
Jewish people were probably taught their own religion incorrectly and he knows it better than they do
Tumblr media
While he demands that others provide proof of what they say, he flat refuses to provide any proof of his own.
Tumblr media
Anyway, if anyone wants to send this on to him so that he can see that the mean lady on the internet has proof, I’d appreciate it.
