The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Now it's "Dems hate Jews", even though more Jews are Dems than Reps (both in the population at large, and in Congress).

This won't make a dent in their armor of ignorance, but I'll post it anyway: - 1pg

Not every body. I definitely softened my view after reading Albaby's observation the other day when he said...

"Again, Jews tend to thrive in a society with a strong commitment to a secular government, that values discrete minorities without pressuring them to assimilate to majority norms, and that emphasizes the norm of acceptance and tolerance over cultural or societal purity. Which are generally more left-wing, rather than right-wing, values. "

That really struck home with me, rationally explaining the reason behind Jews skewing Dem when they vote, something that previously mystified me.
