(11,464 posts)Seems like if one is Jewish they are blamed for all the Bankers, all the Wall Street, all the foreign problems, all the wars, etc.
All the similiar type code words
AIPAC, etc.
Wish you wouldn't leave, but there is also an ageism thing here.
(much like in the working world too).
The older one gets, the more snide jokes there are.
Same with trying to talk to the "kiddies" about wellness and the jokes about obesity.
Along with all the other racisms and all that are day to day as the Beatles sang "here there and everywhere"
Let alone all the anti-women stuff. WTF how many threads on boobs are there going to be?
Let alone the anti-Gay stuff.
Let alone all the covert real meanings of some of the anti-President stuff.
Seems like some forget what the democratic party is made up of, then and now, and in the future. If you take out all the groups mentioned,think one is down to less than 10% of the party.
As you said,
Imagine a Democratic party without Ted Kennedy and his entire family.
It would be IMPOSSIBLE to do.
If you don't come back, be safe and be well.
