Eagles' DeSean apologizes for anti-Semitic posts on IG

Postby La Xinga » Thu Jul 09, 2020 4:36 am

(For some reason, CNN and ESPN are the only ones that have any articles about this. :/)
DeSean Jackson apologized for posting on Instagram anti-Semitic messages on Tuesday.

https://www.cnn.com/2020/07/07/us/desea ... index.html
https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/294 ... c-messages
He also said it was taken the wrong way.

From the CNN article:

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson has apologized for a series of anti-Semitic Instagram posts over the weekend, one of which included a quote about Jews falsely attributed to Adolf Hitler.

Jackson posted a passage to his Instagram Story that claimed to quote Hitler in saying that Black people were "the real Children of Israel," and that White Americans would be terrified to know that they have been "mistreating and discriminating and lynching" them, screenshots published by the Philadelphia Inquirer and other publications show.

According to Snopes.com, the passage is often quoted by those arguing that Hitler was not racist.

After that, a 94-year-old holocaust survivor invites DeSean Jackson to Auschwitz to learn why "sharing the quotes of a man behind this evil is so offensive to us all.

What do you think NSG about this 2-day-catastrophe? Was he right, or was he wrong? It looks like Stephen Jackson may have used the wrong words when defending him.

Is DeSean influential enough that this warranted being news?

COVID, civil wars, planetary environmental decay, concentration camps and forced marriage in China, social chaos in the United States, etc, just makes a dumb ball player's social media nonsense seem... pointless.

They will extort America, their plan for world domination won't work if the Negroes know who they were..." The post also read "Hitler was right."[111][112][113] Additionally, Jackson posted several quotes from Louis Farrakhan on his Instagram account in which Farrakhan accused Dr. Anthony Fauci and Bill Gates of desiring to "depopulate the Earth" with a coronavirus vaccine.[114] Farrakhan has been labeled an anti-Semitic extremist by the Southern Poverty Law Center.[115][116] Jackson later deleted the posts in question and apologized for his statements.[114]


Yep, radical black nationalist that sympathizes with the Nation of Islam.

It was a hyperbole, but it is a growing movement. It's an anti-white and antisemitic movement, and they are gaining steam due to our current racial problems. The Nation of Islam is one of the wealthiest groups in black America, and they promote this crap.

Why do certain black Americans always gotta culturally appropriate from others? These folks talk about "we had great kings and queens" and instead of focusing on the nations of West Africa, they go and steal Egypt and Israel.

Someone needs to tell these jackasses that the Copts are the descendants of the Egyptians and the Jews are the descendants of the Israelites, and they are no more than a pretender trying to claim a clearly debunked theory that "black people are the real Jews and Egyptians and everyone else." No you're not. Stop fucking lying.

Cause he's racist and he's black. He legit is so out of touch with the real world that he thinks black people are the real jews, and the actual jews are imposters.

Yeah okay, how about we go do a genetic test and see who is more Jewish, cause i guarantee everyone here that some faker who dresses in a hilarious mix of diverse African clothes and uses Swahili without even knowing what half the words means is probably less Jewish than even I am.

Trying to tell apart the Nation of Islam and Black Hebrew Israelites is like trying to distinguish sludge metal from stoner doom. At day's end, there isn't much of a difference.

I'd say the Egyptians as a whole are the descendants of the Egyptians. It's not like the Muslim Arabs moved in large numbers of people of non-North African stock when they took over the place (Neither did the Romans, Greeks and Persians before them, for that matter).

Besides, even before the Old Kingdom, the tribes that would eventually form the Egyptian civilization were more closely related with the natives of the Levante and the Arabian peninsula - Ancient Egyptian was a Semitic language, after all.
