Re: Racist or not?...you make the call.
Anti-semitic. Not even close. Heard the phrase for the first time in college, and as a jew was pretty pissed off about it. I guess that's one way to define racism, that a person of that race/religion/ethnicity feels insulted by the comment. Sure, some are overly sensitive, and this is not the best measure of racism, but I know few jews who would particularly like the phrase.
Oddly, my parents, who were always sensitive to any anti-semitism they saw, showed a pattern of using offensive terms to describe other ethnic minorities. Strange that people do that without getting the irony. |

[ QUOTE ] I find that like the term "nigger-rig" You would never use it in front of a black guy, but if you did he would only be, at the most, minorly irriatated [/ QUOTE ] please use it in a sentence and find me a black person who would only be minorly irritated. [/ QUOTE ] Most blacks I know, and I know a lot - my city's population is over 1/4 black and I live on the poorer side of town. Edit: I found that the people that would most get offended at such a term are either a) whites or b) educated or middle-to-upper class blacks. You can clearly see signs of racism amongst some of the middle-to-upper class blacks, similar to Chris Rock's "black people and niggers" distinction, or the division of light and dark skinned blacks in New Orleans. Then again, racism - or relics of them - have been around so long here that it's done without thought. |

Re: Racist or not?...you make the call.
I voted racist, based on the implicit assumption that "jew" is a race. If we want to get nitty, I'll say it's not racist.
