If anything good has come of this Israel-Palestine conflict thing, it has been exposing idiots.

[-] avidamoeba@lemmy.ca 29 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Specifically pretend-progressive idiots, for whom progess is great when it's for their approved groups.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 21 points 1 month ago

Seinfeld is a known conservative. Has never been known as a progressive.

[-] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 month ago

Also “dated” a 17 year old.

Says guy who never had to deal with the KKK.

This really calls attention to his overdeveloped sense of victimhood.

He needs another reason to whinge about being canceled.

“By saying ‘Free Palestine,’ you’re not admitting what you really think,” said Seinfeld, who publicly embraces his Jewish heritage and has pushed back against critics of Israel.

“Just say you don’t like Jews,” he said in reference to the movement, before comparing its supporters to members of the KKK.

In that spirit, Jerry, maybe you should say what YOU really think. You’re a genocide apologist. Embrace it, instead of putting words in other peoples mouths.

[-] avidamoeba@lemmy.ca 19 points 1 month ago

Nah, just have him say what he thinks about Palestinians and muslims. The rest follows.

Let's see, so we have

Free Palestine, a group that wants to stop the genocide and promote the freedom of Palestinians being murdered through no result of their own actions beyond simply existing.

The KKK, a group who expressly want to genocide and oppress the freedom of anyone non-white for just simply existing.

Jerry, you're telling on yourself here a bit

[-] phoenixarise@lemmy.world 64 points 1 month ago

Jerry Seinfeld has always been a pompous piece of shit. Fuck him and his unfunny horsefaced “comedy”.

Oh, and he fucked a teenager at the height of his show. Release the files.

[-] blargh513@sh.itjust.works 26 points 1 month ago

This is the truth. Once he got money, he turned into the asshole he was always wanted to be and oh, what an asshole he's blossomed into.

Now he's added piece of shit who likes genocide AND is entirely brain damaged about what the KKK does and has done.

Pretty solid work to show that you're a piece of shit, like murder and have zero clue about the KKK all in one go.

If this country is going up in flames, can we put the boomers on the front line? They love to talk a big game, let them live up to their own hype.

Good thing I don’t take advice from pedos who "date" 17-year-olds when they’re 39 😃

[-] Dumhuvud@programming.dev 11 points 1 month ago

pedos who “date” 17-year-olds

Stop watering down the term. Yucky? Sure. Pedophile? No.

Pedophilia (alternatively spelled paedophilia) is a psychiatric disorder in which an adult or older adolescent experiences a sexual attraction to prepubescent children. Although girls typically begin the process of puberty at age 10 or 11, and boys at age 11 or 12, psychiatric diagnostic criteria for pedophilia extend the cut-off point for prepubescence to age 13.

Emphasis mine. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedophilia.

[-] Pyro@programming.dev 20 points 1 month ago

A little further down:

In popular usage, the word pedophilia is often applied to any sexual interest in children or the act of child sexual abuse, including any sexual interest in minors below the local age of consent or age of adulthood, regardless of their level of physical or mental development.

He's a type A fucking creep and a pederast if you want to get technical about it.

[-] ImADifferentBird 17 points 1 month ago

Dude, nothing's creepier than people who are eager to argue about the exact definition of pedophile.

"Just say you hate Jews. Just tie me up and say Jews should die. Spank me and call me an evil little Jew. You know you want to."

"Mr Seinfeld, children are starving."

[-] Ron@zegheteens.nl 34 points 1 month ago

Sorry Jerry but I don't hate Jews but I hate the government of Israel

[-] theuniqueone@lemmy.dbzer0.com 33 points 1 month ago

He's always come off as a smug arrogant douche and he doesn't change this first impression the more he opens his mouth,

[-] Katana314@lemmy.world 32 points 1 month ago

Why do they keep trying to fuzz the terminology?

Zionists and Jews are not the same thing. They have very little in common.

[-] curious_dolphin@slrpnk.net 13 points 1 month ago

Because they're dishonest; unfortunately, it's very effective in shutting down public conversations about what's happening over there.

[-] aeternum 29 points 1 month ago

what a rubbish human. Fuck you, jerry (I'm not capitalising his name. he doesn't deserve it)

What's the deal with black people? They're not black, and they're not people.

[-] ValarieLenin@midwest.social 28 points 1 month ago

To be fair that is an absurdly funny statement, it's just a shame that he wasn't joking...

Does he have any respect left?

Honestly...like...who still thinks Jerry Seinfeld is a good person? Jerry Springer is a better person.

Who'd think that George would be the most respectable of the group 30 years later.

“The KKK is a little better than Free Palestine. The crisp white robes? The anonymity? They’re basically racist laundry!”

funky slap bass

[-] BanMe@lemmy.world 23 points 1 month ago

Not really related but I'm having the weirdest time because I got on FB for the first time in a decade, and learned an old friend has transitioned and looks to be much happier now, so I'm excited, but their feed is FULL of zionist propaganda and it appears her entire identity is wrapped up in this now, so accepting her request would be a time bomb. Fuck, why everything gotta be this way now.

Oh look everyone. It's the "airline food" guy who peaked in the 90s. He has a political opinion.

[-] canajac@lemmy.ca 19 points 1 month ago

So. after WW2 Jewish people can obliterate an entire population just because they were attacked. boohoohoo What if the USA did the same thing in Vietnam, Korea, Afganistan, Iraq, etc? How is starving civilians to death is this fucking right Israel? You are making yourselves the new German Party of 1933. Netanyahu is the new Hitler. He ignores the international community, just like Hitler, kills innocents and does not admit it, just like Hitler. He kills starving children ffs. How low do you want to go Israel before you become what you've feared for 80 years? It's an international disgrace. Even trump is telling you to stop now, I mean WTF dudes?

[-] betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago

Jerry had more worthwhile things to say back when he had a show about nothing.

[-] PhilipTheBucket@piefed.social 26 points 1 month ago

In retrospect, Seinfeld was a very dark show. Somewhere on YouTube there is an insightful little video essay about how the first few seasons of the show are basically the story of how Elaine, a perfectly decent person, gets drawn into their little circle and over time adopts their awful selfishness and sociopathic behavior to try to fit in. How most of the problems of the show are caused by their selfishness and dishonesty, and often involve significant harm coming to someone else, and they don't care.

I can't even remember which comedian it is, but someone had a bit about how the darkest joke he ever heard was a Seinfeld bit about being at the movie theater and just throwing his drink on the ground at the end for someone else to clean up. Like it's a small thing, but the guy talking about it was genuinely alarmed by the depth of how far he genuinely just doesn't give a fuck and doesn't mind if you know it.
