Did Joe Rogan meant to say that Jews are trustworthy and know how to do it?

Clarity:

If Joe meant it to say that Jews are trustworthy and talented about it. That is one thing.

For instance, Trump:

'INSIDE STORY' ON TRUMP GETS STUCK ON THE SURFACE
Oct 2, 1991 — ... Trump is quoted as saying: "I have black guys counting my money. . . . I hate it. The only guys I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes all day." https://buffalonews.com/news/inside-story-on-trump-gets-stuck-on-the-surface/article_48c93c9e-fa72-5fcb-af30-617d8dfbb398.html


Bad is, if Rogan meant it in the wrong way, as in recycling old libels, jealousy and/or hate originated generalizations. Terrible.

THE CONTROVERSY

Leo Brown, Joe Rogan accused of anti-Semitism while defending disgraced Rep. Ilhan Omar, The NYPost, Feb 7, 2023.

David Baddiel — the author of book about anti-Semitism called “Jews Don’t Count”:

“For the hard of understanding, ‘Jews are into money’ is not like ‘Italians are into pizza,’”
“Because unless my history lessons really missed something out, no-one has exterminated a large section of the entire Italian community because of their love for pepperoni,” he quipped. “Also, Joe Rogan has a 200 Million dollar deal with Spotify. And yet apparently it’s Jews who are into money.”

Ted Deutch, CEO of American Jewish Committee@AJCCEO. Tweeted (Feb 7, 2023):

@JoeRogan, in defending Rep. Omar's past antisemitic comments, you invoke the same tropes that have been used to persecute Jews for centuries. With an audience of millions, it's dangerous to be so flippant in trafficking in antisemitic stereotypes. Happy to explain on your pod.

Ellie Cohanim @EllieCohanim Tweeted (Feb 7, 2023):

@joerogan here’s some shockers for you: 1. Not all Jews are “into money”—but spreading that belief is one of the oldest antisemitic tropes. 2. Israel’s support in US is NOT due to the “Benjamins”: educated folks understand Israel’s strategic value as only Democracy in MidEast.

I always liked Joe. And if he meant it in a bad way, he disappoints us and it's a new revelation.

I want to think he meant it not in a negative way.

And while Jews, like other Americans, give to religious institutions, they give relatively less to religion and more to secular causes.

They give to left wing causes, like environmental, social (just-us) and foundations meant to pervert culture and society, not "food for the poor" or even "Help the starving Jews in Russia and Israel" charities one sees on TV.

So their charitable giving is actually doing harm.

"Did Joe ... meant to say..?"

Who wrote that? A second grader? Or, an Indian in tech support named Bill?

antisemitic

racist

blah blah

Humans have been treating humans bad forever. Why don’t the Irish get a special word for the way they were treated by the English?

Why would anyone to try turn famous Jewish giving into something bad?
So are volunteers of them in all humanitarian groups.
It reminds those that will highlight any Jewish (even partial) linkage to someone known as negative, diminish any Jewish link to a person known in a positive light. That is classic.

I remember when Howard Stern said, they never talk about my non-Jewish part...

The uniqueness of anti-Jewish intolerance is that it is a DEFAULT by some. Some don't even realize it.

As for Rogan, I never pictured him as a bigot. Till that outburst which he needs to clarify.

Regardless of the slip in "meant" vs "mean" typo -- the point in post is valid.

Six million Jews in the holocaust. Discounting the classification by religion, communism beats antisemitism hands down. We’re all humans. Quit the labeling and classification and call out evil for evil.

Jews were victims of Stalin too. Not just in
the 1960-80. Not sure what you are comparing or linking here.
Communism is the opposite of capitalism aka “Rogan’s money” thing.

Not clicking on the link but I see it speaks about communists. That is off topic. And if your point is about “numbers” who killed more Mao or Hitler, of course Mao. Though it was not a Satanic planned erasure of an entire people ONLY for belonging to a certain origin. But again, that is off topic.
