Ever gonna get back about chicken? Did you not know? Or I bet you didn't care.
Yes referring to Maher, Oliver, Pod Bros, Axios, and many of the docs they run. Again, it is easy for liberals to scoff and say "don't watch them". It is annoying. It is like Duke fans that don't mind the Duke slurping on ESPN. Well, no shit. Everything from bias to plain fascism is cool with Dems because they see the benefit.
Here buddy I’m Jewish. My parents were immigrants. Ask me questions I’ll give you answers.
Most Jews in America are not conservative how it’s defined in the USA. Most aren’t fully practicing. Many do not observe shabot and most only go to temple when there is a wedding or bar mitzvah. Many observe major holiday like rosh hashana, Yom Kippur or Passover.
Most Jews in America see themselves independent of Israel. Most who love Israel are in Israel or lived there at some point. Many Jews who live there were not accepted bc perhaps they didn’t speak fluent Hebrew or were no practicing so they went back to the USA.
Jews in Israel are very arrogant and look down on American Jews who have not made Aliya. Even with in Israel the orthodox look down on anyone not orthodox and it continues to different degrees with certain subgroups held in lower regard.
You want more?
I mean, I don't watch Maher or Oliver or Hannity or Tucker or Maddow or Matthews or Ingraham or Lemon or Cooper or Hume or Baier...…..because their opinions mean nothing to me. It works both ways Q.
Miss Eddie and a few others can relate to this. Very impressive if you can take the whole banana.
Wasn't aware of this, but it looks like 2 airports and 1 campus voted against CFA setting up shop? I think that's stupid, but 3 locations is hardly critical mass.
The Wire is a show about black drug dealers in the inner city. Hardly a recipe for conservative ideals.
That would be like saying GOT is dripping with Westeros Politics!! The horror!
That's the dumbest thing you've ever said on here.
Israel has both legalized abortion and universal healthcare... I guess their definition of conservatives and ours is different...huh? That or I guess she is of the opinion that Israeli Jews aren't "real Jews"...
Dude, so you say you're not really a fan of the First Amendment???
btw: There are 300+ channels plus 1000s of other media outlets...there's something out there for anyone and everyone. There's Leah Remini on one station preaching the evils of Scientology and 2 channels over is the Scientology network...there's your favorite, My Big Fat Fabulous life and then there's Body Electric for those who want to get skinny... but you're annoyed... poor baby.
Was playing poker with a Jewish buddy of mine a few weeks ago and he was keeping the blind clock. When it came time for the blinds to increase, he was in the BB, but he said "no, it's not until next hand, my BB is still 25." I was sitting next to him in the SB and jokingly said "what is that, a Jewish timer?" Without batting an eye, he held up his left wrist, sporting a gold Daytona, looked at me, and said "no, THAT'S a ****ing Jewish timer."
One of the best burns ever.
One of the best burns ever.
OANN isn't bad. But not many providers have it yet.
Most of the "best series ever" lists include stuff that is very recent in TV terms. I stand by my comment.
Somewhere, somebody wrote:
"When the history of 2010-2019 decade is finally written, it will indicate the biggest threat to the LGBTQ movement during this time was a chicken restaurant".
Ahahahahahaha. Now that’s funny. Whoever wrote or said that should be shot.
Ok hang on. In Judaism “conservative” is not what you might refer to as politically conservative. The “conservative” movement in Judaism is in all reality a liberal or at best a moderate left movement with in Judaism. Conservative vs liberal as you know it in the USA does not apply the same way in Judaism. The orthodox look down on conservatives bc they see them as evolving and constantly changing the law. Most Jews in the USA fall under the conservative movement heading BUT they are not likely to be conservative based on the political definition in the USA.
So what you are saying is that most Jews are like most Christians who are like most Muslims who are like most Hindu who are like most Buddist...
You have a POV that is true for you... if you bothered to see the context in which my statement was made...and my later follow up you'd see. The terms liberal and conservative are relative to mean from which the derive. Bernie Sanders would be considered middle-right anywhere in Europe but here he's considered on the far left. The political right in Israel is quite a bit to the left of the American rightwing sans perhaps a few issues.
Exactly... they watch Fox because they know it leans right yet condemn other outlets that lean left. God forbid a Fox anchor criticize their boy...they want them ousted on the spot. God forbid they hear something they don't want to hear regardless of the validity.
Most a huge majority of Muslims are not anywhere near liberal in their social views so no your context is incorrect. Every Muslim country on earth is significantly conservative in the true meaning. Any practicing Muslim is the USA is likely very conservative even though they may vote democrat. You are correct that it is all relative to geography in the case of Bernie Sanders as you mentioned his politics in most countries are leftist but a few they may view him on the right. Although he is a populist and would move wherever he needed to in order to gain power.
Honestly it’s like this. The USA and Europe are by far the most liberal places on earth. In comparative economics liberal is ascribed to open markets. In politics democracy and socially, equality, freedom of religion, speech, etc. Israel in my view and the view of Jews in Israel is a liberal nation. The orthodox want to change it which is why they are having a helluva time consolidating the right in order to back Netanyahu. Americans have blinders on bc the media drums up these terms based in fallacy. Most countries don’t define movements as liberal as conservative. Now the USA media may label such movements but the USA is also arrogant and thinks it can impose its will globally. Democratizing the Middle East for instance or pushing for social justice when it comes to gay rights, women’s rights, etc.
I am. I think it's more truthful than CNN and MSNBC
Ha, you have rqfuzz giving you a reach-around on your trolling, grats.
You just cannot acknowledge bias and its effects due to convenient ignorance or more likely because you like the effect of the influence for the Dems. Equating the biased news channels to content put out on entertainment outlets like ESPN, Showtime, HBO, and Netflix is moronic but it is how you choose to process info to conflate what is obvious. We watch the same stuff I think and of the 4 above all have gone signficantly more political over the past 5 years or so and 100% of their issue or political commentary is to the left and the amount is growing. HBO has added 3 liberal shows in the past year or so. Showtime has a Fox hit piece series on now, btw.
The Obamas see the influence which is why they teamed with Netflix. HBO hired BO's 3 nitwit pod dudes for a show. Tons of incest b/w the DNC and media industries, dumb to pretend there isn't and it has a purpose.

Juan Williams and the Shepard Smith bash the absolute hell out of Trump on a regular basis.
Just heard on the local news that there was a small gathering of Trump supporters and protesters outside where Trump was speaking. Less then 100 people. All was calm until someone dumped a pail of water on another person. Can anyone guess who was the dumper? That’s right. Once again the violence was perpetrated by an anti Trump protester.
They were arrested but will only be cited and released.

I agree, TV is much better currently. Theatrical movies, not so much.
Not really. I just think you're an extra dumbass.
