they both use lazy, tired anti-semitic tropes that didn't get called out as such until Jews had to point it out as such. and i saw them the same day.

intention isn't the definition here. it's the use of a stereotype. I don't think mora intended it. i do think it is an anti-semitic stereotype to talk about a jewish person like that while contrasting it with a blue collar, gritty white christian who can go to Cleveland but the Jewish guy should go to a NY team. The "millenial" thing doesn't even make sense as ceej pointed out.

and yet, he used an anti-semitic trope. It's similar to when Joe Biden praised Obama for being "articulate." Obama is articulate--he's one of the most articulate people in the history of the United States. It's also an anti-black trope to call a particular black person articulate. Dumb fucking move Biden. Dumb (but not as bad) fucking move Mora.

why defend him using a trope? He used the trope. he probably didn't even realize he was doing so, i don't care. but he did and it's shitty of him and we shouldn't let those tropes slide right by because there's an alternative explanation. Nah, don't use those tropes.

to me, it's bizarre people are trying to defend Jim Mora like this. Why? why not be like "yeah, calling a jewish athlete not blue-collar and saying he should go to New York instead of Cleveland is a kinda bad look" I know he said NY because they're picks #2 and #3 in the draft. don't be dense--it's about it being a bad look, not about his belief that we jews have horns or are (((globalists))). but that's out there, so be a little smarter about not accidentally or intentionally sounding like one of those shitheads.

but no. you cape for Jim fucking Mora? ok...
