People complain about how bad the world is, that there is this oppressive establishment elite, evil billionaires etc

@pianoplayingsteve yes, Jewish people have such a history of privilege. That's why there was pogroms, the Holocaust, etc. /s.

@pianoplayingsteve that's cute. I'm not Christian, I don't believe that Christ was anything more than some hippy dude that had an all loving philosophy. Romans killer Jesus because he fostered rebellion among the Jews against Roman oppression. That's if Jesus even existed.

@basilfawlty89 jesus never fostered revolution by the jews against rome. He said 'render unto caesar was it caesar's and unto god what is god's'. Furthermore, he didnt condemn slavery because he was there not to change any social heirarchy but merely bring the gentiles into noahidism. You are mixing jesus up with life of brian. And brian wasnt the messiah he was a very naughty boy

@pianoplayingsteve and you think Jesus was a literal God, when there no evidence he even existed.

Dude, you live in your mum's basement and have a shitty life due to your own mistakes, not due to some secret thousands of years plot by some random Canaanite tribe.

@basilfawlty89 i own a school with my wife, strange person. The bad things in my life were due to my disability and childhood abuse by my parents. But thank you

@pianoplayingsteve sure bruh. I'm am astrophysicist with investments in Amazon. I really? No. Because anyone can claim random bullshit on an anonymous site.

@basilfawlty89 it’s good that I don’t have to prove anything to you on an anonymous site then

@pianoplayingsteve no, but you need to stop with the hate speech and bullshit conspiracy theories.

@basilfawlty89 I don’t have to do anything you tell me, basil

@pianoplayingsteve it's not me personally telling you to do jack shit, you're literally violating the ToS of the site. That's actually against the rules of the site. Don't like that, jog on mate. Meanwhile, until you do get banned, I'm gonna call your shit out. Don't like it, block me.

@basilfawlty89 I’ve been here since the site started, came over from EP, and I’ve been fine.

Oh, I won’t block you. I don’t block people over disagreements. I just see fellow humans and am more interested in where we have common ground -in your case it’s likely that you also like fawlty towers- than where we disagree.

@pianoplayingsteve
How was Jesus literally a god, and not some random dude who happened to gain a cult following at the time which morphed into an everyday religion?

There's no demonstration of power in having a random dude killed

@deadgerbil so you think just anyone could have the Romans kill someone?

@pianoplayingsteve far more powerful empires have existed where witch hunts and persecutions were done based on very poor evidence of one's wrongdoing.

This literally means absolutely nothing. He wasn't literally a god as you stated. He's the center of a belief system that is based on no credible evidence. And he was killed by people who were just as susceptible to superstition and bad judgment as anyone else.

@deadgerbil so you are going to pretend that Ancient Rome wasn’t the world’s superpower during the time of Jesus?

@pianoplayingsteve red herring and strawman. Roman might have been powerful, but that doesn't mean they weren't prone to superstition or stupidity.

@basilfawlty89 I never said they were or weren’t . I said they killed Jesus after pressure from the Sanhedrin, the counsel of the Jewish elders

@pianoplayingsteve
It's literally the center point of your argument, need I remind you of what you said?


The strength of the Romans is totally irrelevant(so your silly contribution of posting a map of the empire is pretty stupid), and the bar is so low that anyone could've drummed up enough controversy to get someone killed by so many powerful countries that have existed since then.

Being apart of a 'Jewish masterclass' isn't a prerequisite to getting someone killed, particularly someone who isn't even a literal god as you erroneously stated.

I'd offer to have you reframe your arguments for a future date, but I've seen enough to know that you'd be 10 IQ'ing your way in any future attempt at conversing. Probably best to stick to posting frog memes in all honesty. My tolerance for bigoted idiocy has been reached. I'll give you an adequate amount of time to read this stuff before blocking you.

@basilfawlty89 jews were persecuted because they’re a huge threat!

@pianoplayingsteve why the laugh?

@Ferise1 it was just very sudden and very to the point.

And contrary to the very black and white claims of people like basil, I have no issue with Jews. Every group has its bad apples and sometimes there were some Jews involved in some very bad things. Just like there are bad white people. And just like some Jews are billionaires, there are some whites are billionaires as basil says. He rightly points that out, but then has an issue with me applying that same logic to ‘and there are also bad Jews’. Guess what basil? There are bad Christians, Muslims, Jews, Hindus, Sikhs and more. And I’m not anti those groups if I mention that fact.
