dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in !the_dunk_tank@www.hexbear.net, it's a great comm.

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

I used to date a Jewish woman from NYC and she told me there's all kinds of weird ass Jewish sects in the city. Like you'll have some synagogue founded by immigrants from one Jewish village in Hungary who believe some rabbi who died in 1922 was the messiah and they'll randomly get in fist fights with guys from some synagogue from Moldova.

Sounds like a good basis for an RPG.

How the fuck does it make any sense to think "the messiah" was some guy who just like fucking died 100 years ago

and then the holocaust happened!

This is like crap I half remember her telling me about, idk if there's literally a Hungarian Jewish sect that believes the messiah was some guy in the 20s, I do remember her telling me about some weird Moldavian Jewish sect that owned like a whole neighborhood in Queens and did get in fights with other Jews constantly. But FYI there's been a lot of Jewish messianic climates, and a few besides Jesus still how followers today, or at least had followers until not that long ago. There's some Turkish dude in the 1600s who I think some tiny Jewish sect thinks was the messiah.

The Christians or Jesus's followers didn't exactly have an easy time in the aftermath of Jesus's death. Nowhere near as bad as the Holocaust though.
