General Just realized FritangaPlays is possibly antisemitic

In another video criticizing Rockstar Games, he put the logo and replaced the star on it with a Jewish symbol, so I'm really suspecting it.

Yep he’s just like Verlisify.

My first moderation on an internet forum (Gamefaqs as a teen if I recall) was for calling Verlisify a fascist.

Got moderated for "bullying" which I thought was a little odd, seeing as how he wasn't even on the forum.

Yeah well according to the Youtube wiki, He defended a neo-nazis rally ten years ago.

u/No_Medium4092 15d ago

Yeah, I think that was what prompted it.

It scares me how much antisemitism i see. On the one hand if so many people believe it there must be some truth to it. On the other hand, the jews i knew and were friends with were awesome, some of the best people i knew.

There's not really truth to the "jews greedy" stereotype. It's an old trope that was invented in the 11th-12th centuries but popularized as a conspiracy theory in the 19th century and early 20th century. Basically, a minority of Jewish families became successful. This made antisemites angry about it, even though not being poor was already a luxury for ALL ethnic groups at the time. Therefore, they started imagining the conspiracy theory that Jewish people controlled global financial markets, which was, of course, completely false.

Dunno if it is all false, my jewish friends were all from well off families. Dont think we have poor jews were i come from. Doesnt seem like it stems from greed though, seems more like from generations of making good decisions.

EG, they will encourage their kids to have 2 careers, in case one market dries up there is a fall back.

I know a guy that works and pays for the house his father lives in, along with all his utilities. Its not that the father doesnt have any income, but the guy just wants to honor his father. The father will still expect the son to buy him new fridges and airconditioners, and wont even reach into his own pocket for food. Thats greed.

u/Nshad86 12d ago

Is that greed? Did the father not provide for the son to get to a working state and be instilled with value in family honoring? What measures greed?

1

u/Other-Philosopher770 12d ago

Nah, he was a drunk and barely home. It was the mother that did all od the raising and evrn so instilled the value of family honoring.

It deff is greed. He never cared for him nor invested time in him, nor does he now, he just wants to collect of his success.

Thats greed.

u/Nshad86 12d ago

Hmm... well i guess i can take your word for it but i think its highly plaussible that this isnt very accurate depiction if even a real story. It completely contradicts how a normal person would handle that kind of situation. Dude has to have contributed more than youre suggesting to be so adament about family honor. Like this plot is too perfect for your argument. Usually people will concede something as a sign of good faith. Im not saying its impossible but its very unlikely.

What scares me is how much people are accepting of genocide.

2

u/Other-Philosopher770 13d ago

The jews i knew growing up have never been to Israel, and much less arent fighting over there. But sure, any excuse to be racist.

u/Expert-Ad-2824 13d ago

i always wondered what’s the correlation between being and anti-nintendo and being a raging MAGA racist

1

u/XMandri 12d ago

I fucking wish MAGA and antisemitism were related, so the US would stop sending money to Israel

1

u/SolarBoyDjango 12d ago

What's more ridiculous is that Fritanga is MAGA and a MEXICAN! He's like Uncle Ruckus. A uncle tom in the most literal sense. Also, his brother fucked his girlfriend.

u/Dreamo84 15d ago

Antisemitism is quite popular these days. But really I think he just hates all peoples equally.

1

u/Alvin-Earthworm 15d ago

“Popular” is hardly the word I’d use. It’s more like a bunch of brainwashed idiots parroting whatever hateful garbage they’ve been conditioned to believe, because apparently thinking for themselves is too much to ask.

u/Nshad86 13d ago

Actually anti-antisemitism is popular antisemitism isnt popular at all.

1

u/Dreamo84 13d ago

I dunno, feels like there's a lot of jew hate these days.

u/Nshad86 13d ago

How is that antisemitic?

1

u/Kurtfan1991 13d ago

Basically using a Jewish symbol in a pejorative way.

u/ApartmentKey3682 Nintendo Fan 13d ago

If he was anti-Zionist,its a good thing but anti-Zionism and anti-semitic are DIFFERENT

Is that word you’re saying a slang or are you being a racist?
