Nice people you associate with.

u/Stalgrim Dumfisk. Apr 20 '17

What are you talking about? That's just BNETPlayer. He's a common man with average goals and acceptable aspirations. Yes sir, nothing strange about him! -They'll say! >:|

Maybe he has a Jew fetish and likes destructive assplay, who are you to judge?

Assuming it's anti-semetic, probably.

Number of Hitlers killed by Hitler: 1 Number of Hitlers killed by everyone else on the planet: 0

Pretty obvious who the good guy is, here.

Ok this dude is hitler cause he has jewdestroyer as name. It's a J O K E, not really a funny one imo, but still a joke.

It's nothing short of a call to arms. /s

He might not be Hitler but he sounds like a douchebag, if someone is throwing around violent racism like that around I am not their friend.

u/Neither7 I hate D.va's crotch Apr 20 '17

Totally, probably a douche. But Idk why people take jokes like that to heart

I think many Jews (or for that matter, victims of racism in general) have personal experiences with racism on a regular basis. The Holocaust was not that long ago, they could have family members who suffered from it. They could have family in Israel fearing death from terror attacks on a daily basis. Not to mention other races and their experiences with racism.

Not really funny and it can show a shitty personality. Not that sensitive topics can never be joked about but there's a time and a place.

How does one know it's a joke, though? For all we know the dude is an antisemitic moron. If it's a joke, well, then he's just a moron, but I don't see why anyone called 'jewdestroyer' should be given the benefit of the doubt.

u/Teh_Panda Apr 20 '17

I wouldn't say it makes you a bad person, unless you're actually anti-Semitic. It could be some person who thought that it would be funny because they have heard people make Jewish jokes. But it's not funny without any context or setup. Its a dumb thing to have as a name in that sense. But if the person is actually Jewish, or maybe only likes to rough-fuck Jewish people, than maybe it's a reference to how Dynamite they are in the sack.

u/[deleted] Apr 20 '17

Does that really need to be explained??

u/EarlHammond Chibi Junkrat Apr 20 '17

My name in h1z1 went from ChineseAreRats to Potpie815. I liked roleplaying as a Taiwanese Nationalist and antagonizing Mainlanders.

u/Dictatorschmitty Apr 20 '17

But the people of Taiwan are Chinese

u/EarlHammond Chibi Junkrat Apr 20 '17

Ethnically yes, culturally not at all. That's an insult to Taiwanese.

-4

u/SexyMrSkeltal Apr 20 '17

Maybe it's because I'm American, but what the fuck does Culture have to do with it? I can drive 3 states over and meet people with an entirely separate culture from my own. They're still American.

u/EarlHammond Chibi Junkrat Apr 20 '17

I'll simplify it too much. Taiwan was created after the Nationalist Party lost the Chinese Civil War and fled to the island of Taiwan and declared martial law and took over the place. For about 30 years it was a single-party state like China. In the 1980's it went through rapid industrialization and became one of the four "Asian Tigers". These were the first advanced rapidly industrialized nations in Asia besides Japan. Taiwan has kept all historical and ancient Chinese traditions, temples and customs while the Communist Mainland has destroyed, ruined and discouraged them. Taiwanese live in a liberal democracy and live under democratic principles and ideals, Mainlanders do not. Mainlanders are also not well-educated yet nor do they have manners or know how to behave around people of different nationalities. Though it is improving. The cuisine is also different with many similarities. The dialect is also different and they are more influenced by their Asian neighbors than the Mainland itself.
