What historical events would people say are fake news if the tinfoil hat/banjo crowd lived through them.

“That Hitler, he didn’t really invade Poland…”

Or “Columbus lied about a New World, it’s all water and sea monsters”

That Hitler ran away to Argentina.

The moon landings never happened.

That Jesus was a white dude (somehow)

@QueenOfZaun So what color was Jesus?
QueenOfZaun · 26-30, F
@hippyjoe1955 Jesus was a middle eastern Jewish man born in 1st century Judea, native to Judea. Dark hair. Tan skin. Their were not white people walking around in 1st century Judea. The idea of Jesus being “white” was an artistic liberty that became popular during the high middle ages.

@QueenOfZaun And you know that how again? Please be honest. My neighbor and his wife are first generation Lebanon immigrants. Their skin is whiter than mine. The son and wife are both red heads. I think you are a bit uninformed and very much a racist.

@hippyjoe1955 Because we have archeological evidence of people who were born in Judea at the same time Jesus was alive and we know that people who are native Judea aren’t white skinned lol Also the earliest depictions of Jesus were not him being white. The image of white Jesus came from the middle ages and it’s believed that the image of white Jesus was actually partially based on Caesare Borgia. Pope Alexander’s son.

@QueenOfZaun Ardhology can not tell what color skin someone has. Sorry but you are being extremely racist. The middle east is not brown. It never was. Yes many people in the area have dark hair. Dark hair is the most common hair color in the world. The vast majority of ethnic Jews today are white. Not sure how they lost their 'brownness' in just 2000 years.

@hippyjoe1955 What evidence do you have that Jesus was white?

@QueenOfZaun safe to say that many of the white nationalist Christians would not want to sit next to the actual Jesus, who had a darker skin tone, on a plane lol

And fyi, you're talking to a dude who insists that Trump's 'covfefe' typo has actually meaning in Yiddish folklore. You won't win against dippyjoe

@QueenOfZaun People still living in the area who can trace their ancestry back hundreds and thousands of years are white. Leonard Cohen was white. Why do I bring that up? Cohen means priest. He was a descendant of Aaron. What color was he? If you say brown I will laugh at you. The fact is that area is predominately white. On a lighter note I met a fellow from Kenya. He asked me what color Adam was. I replied that I didn't know. The Kenyan laughed and said that Adam was black since he was made from dirt and dirt is black. I pointed out that Adam means from the RED earth. By that metric Adam would have been red.

@deadgerbil Nothing to do with my skin color. Has everything to do with revisionist history. Jesus was black or brown is revisionist history. The ancient Jews were white. The whole Jesus was brown nonsense is based on anti white racism. BTW don't assume I am white. My ancestry is mixed.
QueenOfZaun · 26-30, F
@hippyjoe1955 You think Jesus Christ was white because the famous singer Leonard Cohen was white.

Okay.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@QueenOfZaun No I think white because the ancient jews were white as are their descendants. If the ancient jews were brown why are all their offspring white? Try to think instead of simply spewing your racist hatred.
QueenOfZaun · 26-30, F
@hippyjoe1955 I have not expressed any hatred in this conversation
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@QueenOfZaun Actually you have. You have bought into the antiwhite liberal revisionism hatred. Sadly for the antiwhite crowd - Jesus was most likely white skinned. Fully human Fully God but likely white skinned. No need to change history to fit antiwhite liberalism. Liberals hate every word Jesus spoke anyways.
QueenOfZaun · 26-30, F
@hippyjoe1955 I follow science. Nothing more. Jesus was not white. It’s not revisionist to learn new ideas that challenge the old ones. Science has advanced, education has advanced and people have learned to criticize commonly misled beliefs. Like the fact that Jesus was white. The idea of white Jesus came out of the middle ages and it’s something that stuck for centuries despite it not being scientifically accurate or it making any logical sense. Judean natives are not white. Modern day white Jews are white because in addition to having middle eastern blood, they also have blood from European and North African ancestry. Jesus was a native to Judea in a historical era where white jews in Judea were non existent.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@QueenOfZaun What science do you imagine you are following? You are spewing anti white liberal hatred. There is no science involved. Ancient Jews were as white as their modern descendants. Races don't lose their color in 2000 years.
QueenOfZaun · 26-30, F
@hippyjoe1955 There are still brown skinned Jews in the middle east to this day lol Jews that do have white skin, have white skin because their ancestry is European and/or North African. That didn’t start happening until after Jesus died. Their were no white Jews in Judea in the 1st century.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@QueenOfZaun Have you ever been there? Doesn't sound like it. I love to watch video's or various archeological digs in Israel. Funny how I rarely see brown or black Jews in the videos if as you imagine all jews were brown 2000 years ago. You have been sold on antiwhite liberal hatred and are now trying to hide behind a nonexistent science. Dang but that is funny! Ancient Jews were white as are their descendants. Yes there are brown and black Jews. Jewish is a religion that people convert to. Remember Sammy Davis Jr.? He was Jewish. He was not ethnically a descendant of Abraham but he was still Jewish. I happen to be a member of Judaisms greatest sect AKA Christianity. I am not genetically a descendent of Abraham either.
QueenOfZaun · 26-30, F
@hippyjoe1955 It’s ridiculous that you are using celebrities born in the 20th century to justify the skin color of people who were born in the 1st century. Native Judeans are not white. There were no white jews walking around Judea in the 1st century.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@QueenOfZaun You are the one using a celebrity (Jesus) to advance you antiwhite hatred. I honestly don't care what color His skin was but I do care about historical accuracy. Since modern ethnic Jews are white it is extremely unlikely that their ancestors of 2000 years ago were brown. That is science. It is also not trying to advance an anti white anti Christian liberal world view Sadly history and science are not on your side so you trying to defend your hatred does not look good on you.
QueenOfZaun · 26-30, F
@hippyjoe1955 You don’t seem to understand that modern day white jews are white because they’re middle eastern blood got mixed with European and North African ancestry. That was not happening when Jesus was alive 2,000 years ago.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@QueenOfZaun Here is a bit of science for you. White parents beget white children. Black parents beget black children. Brown parents beget brown children. Its a generational thing. If the descendants of a family are black it is undoubtedly because the ancestors were black. If the descendants are white undoubtedly the ancestors were white. Today's ethnic Jews are white. Therefore their ancestors were white. Seems so simple even a liberal could understand it but liberals are haters to the core so they simply revise history to suit their hate filled agenda.
QueenOfZaun · 26-30, F
@hippyjoe1955 Again, ethnic Jews who are white skinned. Are white skinned because they have more North African/ European ancestry than thr ethnic Jews native to Judea. Ethnic Jews come from and originate from the middle eastern province of Judea. That’s why they are called Jews. The native Judean Jews were not white skinned. The mixing of Judean Jews and European/ North African blood happened very slowly across thousands of years of inter racial breeding. White Jews did not exist in Judea when Jesus was alive.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@QueenOfZaun No they are white skinned because their ancestors from ancient Israel were white. You do have a severe case of antiwhitism. Very strange how you think nothing good can be white and all white is evil. You are a racist. Undoubtedly a liberal but then liberals are haters so.....
QueenOfZaun · 26-30, F
@hippyjoe1955 Ancient Israel’s were not white. Joe, if ancient Jews were white then where did all the ethnic brown skinned jews come from? And why were the brown skinned Jews there in Judea before the European ones?
OggggO · 36-40, M
@QueenOfZaun Not that he will care, but there's historical evidence that ancient Judeans were tan like many other Middle Easterners.

My guess, however, is that he will continue to insist that Ashkenazi are representative of all ethnically Jewish people.
