If Hitler were non-white, Bruce Hoffman would be fighting to be first in line for the gas chambers.

As my grandmother used to say, “a shonde for the goyim”.

Non-sequitur, unless all white Southerners were Dixiecrats.

I don’t think if you sift through surviving typescripts of Strom Thurmond’s speeches delivered in 1948 you’re going to find any Jew-baiting.

The problem started when Moses descended mount Sinai with a subscription to the NY Times.

There is far more anti-Semitism on any Ivy League campus than you will find in any medium sized southern U.S. city. More racism, also.

So I grew up in Southern Indiana, and a woman who helped out with my grandmothers wedding business also spent a great deal of time with us as kids… a third grandmother. She taught Baptist Sunday School for 50 years (just miles from Lincoln’s Boyhood Home), and when I told her I was marrying a Jewish woman she was quite accepting and kind and mentioned something like being part of G-d’s chosen. Interestingly, I was the one who suggested going to Shul, because she needed G-d in her life. Sadly, her being was more of a Democrat, something that contributed to the demise of our marriage.

The progressive Jewish projection on “rednecks” (or whatever label you want to put on salt of the earth red-blooded Americans) is really not warranted to those who have a relationship with G-d. But humans being humans, there are exceptions. The should really go to a local meeting of their local county GOP with an open mind. The worse thing they could do is ask you to go to church…. (but that would be because the wouldn’t know you were Jewish)

In one of the most progressive counties in Colorado, we have Jews, Blacks, Asians, Hispanics… but we don’t think in those terms. Just in terms of being American.

They had CNN running this morning in the hotel lobby.

The endless repetition of “Trumpism” and the “violent rhetoric” of the right and how it led to an “insurrection attempt to reject the results of a proper election by force”.

Anyone besides me remember the very distinct amount of lefty temper tantrums after the 2016 election? Yeah, that was a REAL attempt to reject the results of a proper election by force.

SMH. As Viva Frei says, “Confession through Projection”.

“the “Dixiecrats” as a strident segregationist faction): many, many of whom were anti-Jewish and anti-black”
………….
“Don’t think white Southerners have ever been notable for a hostility to Jews.”
…………….

Non-sequitur, unless all white Southerners were Dixiecrats.

agree, but the Sulzbergers like the Pulitzer’s are no longer Jewish in both practice and halacha The family name was originally Ochs and they were out of the 19th c German Jewish migration stream that hardly exists anymore as a distinct element. The current scion mismanaging the paper, his father, and his grandfather all married gentiles. His grandfather did so at a time when it was quite unfashionable among Jews. Same deal with the Meyer family who owned The Washington Post, but they took this path a generation earlier. The last Meyer scion to run The Post had one Jewish great-grandparent. William Paley, who founded CBS, also married a shiksa at a time (1932) when that was just not done. Charlie Rose once had an interview with Esther Friedman Lederer, aka Ann Landers, who described to him what house rules were when she and her sister were growing up in Sioux City, Iowa, ca. 1935; they were not permitted to date gentiles, no exceptions.

The strongest supporters of Israel anywhere in the world are evangelical Christians in flyover country who love Trump.

They are likely to support military action by Israel by a higher approval rating than Jews in Israel.
