Jewish is not a slur just like Christian or Buddhist is not a slur. I believe that within the context it was intended to be, otherwise why not just call him a "fart box" ?... Ooh the troll said "Jewish". What is it with people being so easily offended all the time these days? Here's a message from Chopper Reed that applies to all.

I don’t think anyone is offended, and I don’t think you’re realizing that there was THREE different trolls in total with nonsensical comments, not just the one troll that Alan quoted. Why allow a mentally deficient ‘troll’ to resurrect and then shit on an otherwise informative and interesting old thread ? You’re a nice guy Bruv, so nice in fact that you even give idiotic trolls the benefit of the doubt. I say it’s time you ‘Harden the F’ck up’ ! ☠️

I don't think Dave Reslo is Jewish, but I am. And I don't care for your humor. Did you necro this thread to spout anti-gay and antisemitic swill anonymously? Are you some kind of fucking troll? Alan, I took care of the troll invasion that was ruining this thread... *For the record, 2 were from California and one from Brazil. None of them were actual members using the 'Guest' post option. Thanks, Magnus.

Is Jewish fart box (Or whatever it was?) really an insult, m8s? Hey m8,
What he actually said was "Sandow was not gay, ya Jewish fart fucker."
Maybe a nice yob like you may shrug off such anti-gay and anti-Semitic remarks, m8. Maybe you also would not have been bothered had he written "Sandow was not gay, ya nigger fart fucker."
Although you don't seem to turn a hair at any of this, I'm personally tired of being passively silent in the face of this kind of bigoted bilge.
So if it's not too much of a bother m8, try to imagine if you were gay or Jewish (or black for that matter).
Not so long ago, many of us Jews, along with Roma, gays, and African-Germans were murdered in concentration camps, and that makes us Jews a bit sensitive on the subject.
Or maybe you're too sheltered to be able to put yourself in our place.
Gentlemen, I am not comfortable discussing this subject further. Nevertheless, I thank Magnus for having the humanity to check into these trolls' attempts to stir up shit on our forum.

Jewish is a person of the Judaic faith and is nothing more than a descriptive term. Niggah, especially when spelled in the classic manner is most definitely a derogatory term. That was not a fair comparison.

"Christian" was originally a derogatory label which was first documented in the Book of Acts of the Apostles 11:26.

That was not a fair comparison. I think it’s a little bit complicated because unlike most other religions of the world, Judaism is an ‘Ethno-Religion’ whose members can be tied together genetically as well as spiritually, and for the most part culturally. So I kind of understand the comparison that Alan made as pertaining to the ‘Jewish’ pretext. Although ‘Black’ instead of ‘nigg3r’ would have probably been a closer comparison. Now if the troll had used ‘kike’ or ‘Hebe’ as a pretext it would have been a more accurate equivalent…. ***I sincerely hope that I’m not offending any of you whip-cracker ‘square head’ or ‘mick’ or ‘greaseball’ etc. honky MF’ers ? 😉

For those who might not know, ‘All In The Family’ was a wildly popular comedy tv show back in the day. The times were most certainly changing, and Archie Bunker was perhaps the most lovable of all common neighborhood ‘racists’…

I don't let trolls bother me. Especially trolls that joke that Sandow was gay or slap the word "Jewish" on the front of a humerous phrase like "Fart box". If they wanted to be really offensive then I'm sure they could have been. I'm not about to turn this forum into a sterile "Safe space".

If they wanted to be really offensive then I'm sure they could have been. I'm not about to turn this forum into a sterile "Safe space". I agree Bruv, but again it wasn’t just the one troll, there were three that basically took a shit on the thread. I dunno, maybe it’s me, but to just leave a mess like that out in the open is sort of the equivalent of some punk writing graffiti on your fence and you don’t clean it off, or walking into someone’s kitchen and seeing a sink full of dirty dishes with countertops covered in crumbs and dog hair…. Would you eat breakfast there if they offered ? ***This actually happened to me a few years ago when I stopped by an old friend that I hadn’t seen in a few years… 🤮
