What the fuck kind of insult is 'Jew'? you know the kind of 'insult' like 'yeh, ya fuckin joooo!' that is usualy hurled around so casually by a certain group of people (dead eyes, sports wear, drooling mouth, you know the type).
I'd like to make it clear at this point that I am not Jewish and am not religious at all. However, I'm not one of those militant athiest types who pours derision over anyone who might believe in anything outside our own little universe. I dont hate any religion, or consider religious people idiots. People can believe whatever they like as long as they keep it to themselves (which sadly is not a common thing among some religions). But personally, I don't really buy it.
Therefore, I have no problem with the Jewish faith. In fact, i quite admire it. Compared to christianity, or most religions for that matter, Judaeism has a far less 'prestigious' history of hate, oppression, aggression, murder and such (although one should maybe consider this: maybe its just because they lost all the time? Too soon?). However, i was recently refered to as being semitic by a person of similar description to persons described above. I'm not entirely sure what he hoped to acheive by calling me this. Did he think i would cry? collapse into a tearful heap, crying to the heavens 'nooooo, Moses help me, its not true! Why, Joshua, whyyyyyy?' No. All this thick peice of maggot shit succeeded in doing was proving that he/it is in fact a worthless, ignorant twat with racist and neo-nazi tendencies, whos only purpose on this planet is to remind us all of the importance of protected sex and making us all wish his dad had spurted him into a tissue a long time ago.
I was simply walking down the street, and to be met with a hail of hate-crime related vulgarity always strikes me as a bit of a shock, but also a bit of light entertainment. Here's what gets me about this kind of insult: you never hear it applied to any other religion. You never hear anyone shout "Oi! ya fakin Buddhist!" or "Yeh blud, your fuckin Greek Orthodox, innit. Blup!"
I once tried to apply this concept to a new religion, but it did not end well. It was at a house party, the kind that you tend to get in Hemel which is full of chavs and drug addicts. One of my friends had attempted to steal my beers as a joke. So naturally I told him to "piss off, you fuckin Christian!" At this point, everyone in the room, most of whom had previously been doing ketamine off the counter and discussing the complexities of 'knifin' people,* suddenly turn into a militant group of christian fundamentalists. I'm greeted by a chorus of "wot blad?" "yeh? im a fuckin cafflic, innit" "dont take the Lords name in vain, ya fackin greeb!" I left soon afterwards.
I think what we're all forgetting here is that Jesus was a Jew. Oh yeh, that's right gangsta, Jesus was a fackin' 'orrible hebrew. Oh Yeh, and the bible? Half of that was written by Jews, gasp! In fact Christianity, Islam and even Rastafarianism come from Judaism. Fact. So why the fuck is it in any way acceptably to use Jew as an insult? You dont go around shouting 'nigger' or 'paki' at people, so why 'Jew'? Its not clever, or funny or 'gangsta'. All it proves is that you are a pig ignorant, racist dipshit.
Rant over, good day.
