I read the Ace’s thing before you deleted it. Why are there so many strange and mean people in this world? Does it make them feel better to insult an entire group?
Because he’s Ace’s well-known anti-semitic troll. All of us who spend time on Ace’s site have had to dodge the steaming piles he’s left in any number of threads.
What, pray tell, was the occasion which prompted you to write about it this time?
Yeah, I figured that out after I posted. I guessed the controversy would be found in one of Ace’s comment sections. Well, par for the course with this dude. I think he’s a Buchananite paleocon.
Why is it that Chinese, Irish, Indians, Gypsies, Vietnamese and Filipinos can spread to 60 other countries without suffering significant pograms?
Perhaps because they have no intention of subverting, controlling the laws and morals and economy of the locals??? And avoid royally pissing off their host nation??
Because everyone knows the Jewish Bacillus really WAS subverting and destroying the morals of European nations.
It would help Cedarford’s case if he were at least historically vaguely accurate.
In reality, however, ethnic Chinese have often been victims of pogroms in Southeast Asia. In Indonesia, as recently as the mid-1990s, it was ethnic Chinese who had their stores burnt and who were hunted during the unrest in the waning days of Suharto.
Similarly, the “boat people” of the 1970s fleeing Vietnam were often ethnic Chinese, persecuted despite having been in Vietnam for generations.
Singapore was founded, in part, because the Malay majority in Malaya wanted to be separated from the ethnic Chinese in their midst. (There was also the issue of the ethnic Chinese dominating the Malaysian Communist Party during the Malayan Insurgency.)
As for Indians, if you examine Idi Amin’s early atrocities, they were focused on the Indian population, and were described in pretty much the same terms as Cedarford used.
What happened to the post about Ace’s anti-semitic troll?
I thought better of it and removed it. Sent the text of the post to Ace, because I’m aware that it went out on the various feeds.
That cartoon is perfect. PERFECT.

I didn’t see the post, but can I assume that the post refers to Cedarford?
Indeed. What gave it away?

Because it was directed at me (see comments).

This in particular is a real gem:

Hmmm…reading the rest of his comments, I clearly spoke too soon. They get even better/worse.
Jeff, I hope you don’t bring him here…ugh.
geeeeez…I just read Ace’s comment section
Makes you wonder what Cedar keeps in his closet to dress up in on the “special nights” in …
These are among the guys that Lt Gen. was mentioning as fun to shoot.
Wow. That boy is a freak. Kind of made my skin crawl. What do you do about psychotic little rantlings like that?
Ana, you give them tenure at the University of Colorado.
Later,

No pogroms of Indians and Chinese?!?
