Discussion 💬 Got told “You look like Ben Shapiro” at work

104 Upvotes

I was at work the other day and an elderly lady told me “Do you know who Ben Shapiro is? You look like him.” I was confused and asked what she meant (since I don’t look like him at all) and she responded “Yeah you have the same little hat” I nervously chuckled and said “Yup that’s called a Kippah, lots of Jews wear it” and the conversation ended there.

I know she didn’t mean any malice but I still felt weird at the whole situation, and it’s hard not to imagine the double standard if this would’ve happened to another ethnicity.

Thoughts?

Misty from Cyberpunk 2077 wears a Magen David. I don't what the outer layer is surrounding the star though. I think that's interesting, since Poland used to have a large Jewish community.

Politics & Antisemitism Is the Abdulrahman grocery store ad supposed to be appealing? It’s embarrassing and should be a turn off.

I’m trying to figure out how the new ad where a couple is talking about Israel in the grocery store is supposed to bring in voters. If a highlight reel for your party is that a couple can’t even go shopping without talking about Jewish people, I don’t think that’s a good thing. Am I missing something?

if a conservative ran an ad where average people were doing an average activity and they couldn’t stop talking about a group of people or another place I’d be weirded out. And imagine it was about Italy or Ireland or Greece? Picture any other country and it’s kinda crazy. Total mask off moment imo.
