I have no reason to be anti-Semitic.

    Sadly, White Nationalists have inflicted worst possible genocide on Jewish People during WWII. African Americans also suffered Slavery. Both are products of White Nationalism.

    Hi Moriah. Aspergers Syndrome is a subset of Autism. It is High Functioning Autism of Moderate Severity.

    Minor Autistics can hold jobs and can fit into Society -- with difficulty. I am a housekeeper for my parents. Thank G-d and my parents, my parents support me. Severe Autistics can not compose a sentence. They can not function independently.

    Thank you! Most disabled people in USA have no help or very little help.

    Fortunately, I can communicate very well, I can function well, and I can do household work. I could never drive -- that would guarantee an accident. I can not find or hold a job.

    Yes, you missed my point. I am not talking about liking or disliking a person, I am talking about blaming someone else for your own faults.
    I try to blame my wife for my own faults, but it is not working. Jews are traditional scapegoats, so if I wasn't a Jew I would be very happy to blame Jews for my poor grades and a low salary. Who knows, maybe my low salary it is Soros fault?

    What you said is only a half true. Yes, not every criticism of Israel is anti-Semitic, but how do explain only Israel is condemn for actions when other countries are doing the same o worse? Take for example Hamas - how you can deal with an organization which until recently they have it in their chapter:
    https://avalon.law.yale.edu/20th_century/hamas.asp

    "The Day of Judgement will not come about until Moslems fight the Jews (killing the Jews), when the Jew will hide behind stones and trees. The stones and trees will say O Moslems, O Abdulla, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him. Only the Gharkad tree, (evidently a certain kind of tree) would not do that because it is one of the trees of the Jews.".'

    Israel will never stop muslim ire towards Jews so long as Israel claims to represent Jews and acts so horribly towards palestinians, who are equated with muslims. It is a cycle that needs to end, and the party with more power should probably be more pressured to change it; that being Israel, which has the backing of the USA.

    After having been "on the ropes" in the ring of love more times than I care to admit, I can assure you that blaming one's wife for one's own faults is a lose-lose proposition.
    Anyway, the topic of this thread has to do with anti-Semitism / racism. I hope we can agree that both are at least counterproductive to the person who holds anti Semitic / racist views.
    In addition to being a paratrooper in military service (Laos), I've had numerous jobs/vocations/professions which were not well paying but they were at least interesting and rewarding and frequently dangerous. I had the opportunity to have a very well paying job but because it was boring I turned it down so I have only myself to blame for my cancer, heart issues, and multiple, chronic orthopedic conditions.

    Re:
    This may have been true long ago and in different places but currently, older, White, Christian men are the primary politically correct scapegoats of today. Jews have the ADL and a number of similar organizations to quash any anti Semitism that currently manifests itself but we wicked, evil and greedy old White men are pretty much on our own.

    Re:
    Somehow, I don't think that even you believe that your "low" salary is a result of Soros' machinations. My most recent job/vocation as a blacksmith / artist was far from significantly profitable but I loved the work, am said to have designed and made some beautiful artifacts that will last for centuries. However, I was terrible at the business end of quoting prices for the ornamental yet functional wrought iron gates, andirons, trellises, table bases etc. that I designed & made.

    Is there anything about your job that you like? If not, what are the prospects of changing jobs?

    Thanks,

    Having recently learned what Aspergers is and thinking it very much is one of my Grandson's and hence getting into all the reading and so on, I can so much identify with CCitizen. I would say that having Aspergers really is a different identity than the majority. I hear people with Aspergers tend to find it incredible when they meet with others who are wired like them, who understand how they work. I also totally understand why people are Aspie Proud. Kids with Aspergers tend to get a lot of bullying simply because they are on a different wave length and do not understand the social cues, the emotions and so on of the other kids - that leads to a lot developing anxiety or depression or both.

    It is a life long thing. It takes enormous strengh to get through and yes, respect and support, so I think I understand what C Citizen is talking about and unfortunately it is something which sticks to you always so it is understandable, we could even say correct that people identify it as a major part of their being. A time may come where in school people learn about it so that they can understand that a person with this condition talks a somewhat different language to them but one they could learn a bit. People with Aspergers need to try and sus out what everyone else is up to so that they can talk their language and get the bullying stopped! To give you some idea of just how much more these people need to put in to succeed I was reading a book that people call the bible on it recently. The guy spoke about how kids usually become aware that they are different at around 6-8. They can see that other kids have a way of knowing and communicating which they simply do not have. Their reaction to this at this age can be so overwhelming that they consider suicide.

    Its fascinating but yes, not the subject of this forum.

    Don't take me too serious - in political discussion I always pretend I support the other side, emphasizing illogical thinking of the other side - this was my point to show when antisemitism is a good 'medicine'.
    And I like my job (computer programming), but my dream job is to work as HR in topless bar.

    Thank you! I am sorry I have missed your post. As a 50 yo man with Aspergers I do not fit into any Society and I am proud of my condition.

    Best luck to you and your grandson!

    I have Autism of Moderate Severity. I can not get a job. I do not drive a car. Nevertheless, unlike severely Autistic people I can write sentences and essays.

    I personally am a Gentile who is attracted to the Noahide Movement and I am planning on beginning online classes soon that are offered by near death experiencer Rabbi Alon Anava. I find myself listening to his online lectures a lot.

    When we sell our home in Nova Scotia and move, probably to somewhere in Ontario, I am planning on at least getting in contact with a synagogue to see if they would want me there on Saturdays or not?

    You write very well indeed and one possible means for you to have a career would be if five or more of your friends formed a film production cooperative or kibbutz... and you starred as yourself....... and you gave your opinion on how to address really huge problems in the world.

    Obviously... the editing will be important but minimum wage for a star in a Disney film with so much as one spoken line is a thousand dollars per hour so you may wish to discuss this idea with some people at your synagogue.

    I will send you a personal message with a link related to a plan to finance the construction of the Ezekiel chapter forty to forty eight temple complex that some of us Gentiles are discussing.
