Trump’s America
I think Fantana is somewhat conflating New York Democrats with “liberals.” Yeah, a lot of liberals have some degree of anti-Muslim bias just because for most it’s still an “other” that they don’t have much experience with, but there’s nothing that your ordinary liberal loves more than to think they’re multicultural and tolerant so that limits it quite a bit. But a lot of New York Dems aren’t even liberal, they’re conservatives who happen to be Dems because in New York that’s the only real game in town. That leads to some confusion with New York liberal politicians as well who cater for those conservatives’ votes (I’m thinking Gillibrand here), but the real anti Muslim shit in New York isn’t coming from liberals. -

It seems to me that the primary bias that most American have, if they have one, is that they think of all Muslims as fundamentalist. Whereas they are willing to parse the hardshell and softshell Christians and make allowances to Christians who aren't fundamentalists, they don't give Muslims the same leeway, ant throw them all into one big batch. That's the problem. The other problem is conflating thoughts about religious beliefs with global politics. -

Gonna nab some quarters from my change bucket, ride my bike up to the mall....
My grandfather started a vending business in the 70s and sold arcade games, pool tables, air hockey, foosball, crane machines, etc. Basically anything you put quarters in, he sold. We had a Galage (my favorite game ever), Ms Pac Man, a Cyclone pinball table, juke box, and a pool table at the house permanently. We also used to rotate in a few games and had Joist, Spy Hunter, Star Wars (fucking loved that game), Pole Position, Donkey Kong, Tapper, Frogger, etc... It was awesome. I used to have sleepover birthday parties at his warehouse and he would turn on about 50 arcade games and we'd drink all the sodas from the soda machine (which was mostly filled with beer) and play video games till like 2am. Pinballz seems to do everything this new adult Chucky Cheese arcade does. I love pinballz, but my only complaint is that my 9 and 11 year olds can blast through a couple $100 cards in less than an hour. I've still got an old 45 juke box. When friends come over we just turn that on and let people play whatever they want. I played about 1000 games of Street Fighter 2 at Crystal's, as I went to both grade school and high school across the street at St. Rita and Jesuit. Sorry we were all a pain in the ass. However, I did something similar when I worked at the TCBY at Preston/Forest in 1994/1995. I would leave all the frozen yogurt machines on when I closed. We would go see a rock show down in Deep Ellum where the age of admission at most of the clubs playing punk/indie shows was 16. We would go back to TCBY after the show and make gigantic sundaes and eat them with the WW2-vet security guard at midnight. That was kinda fun. -

But most observers of Judaism confine criticism of the Orthodox to that relatively small sect of the faith, so the criticism is more principled and limited. Fundamentalism in Christianity is more pervasive and even moreso in Islam. As legit as the criticism is, the baby gets thrown out with the bathwater. One thing, though, Judaism has almost always been a minority religion and lacked power. So its excesses have been somewhat limited and criticism considered unwarranted or unjustifiable, just like a lot of legitimate criticism of minority groups. -
