My friend is truly stupid.

[Scary-Kids]

My friend truly believes that Black people had it WAY worse than Jewish people.
(This is in no way shape or form supposed to be racist)

But i believe the Jewish people had it MUCH worse than the black people did.
Slavery in Egyptian times.
The Holocaust.
2 major things that happened to the Jewish people.

But the black people..
Were just enslaved for 200 years.
They weren't being hunted down and eradicated.

How can that opinion even be supported?

Jew have been through way more shit than what you posted, the Spanish inquisition for example. They've been kicked out of pretty much every country they've been to, and for what reason? Who knows?

[Sensationalism]

I bet your friend is black.

Maybe because they don't accept Jesus as their saviour.

The only difference is: Jews brought a lot of the racism on by their actions pre-WW2. The world didn't even care about the killing of the Jews, until they could be used as a political hot ticket. Blacks on the other hand, were merely tribesman/women, who were abducted from their land to be slaves across the world. They didn't do anything to deserve it.

[Ultor]

Id say its about the same you see back in the 1800s you have to consider the slaves were traded as property and on the journey lots of them died on the way there.

[Kilom]

Measuring and comparing which events of tragedy is worse than the other is just as bad as the events themselves...wait....OH SHI-

Can't people just agree that both were bad, and that we should learn from it?

How can yours? What we have here, is TOTAL opinions, theres no facts beyond anything you could logicaly use to support it. By that, i don't things like death tolls in the holocaust or slave journals. what i mean is, since the argument is all about who had it worse, there can be no winner based on fact.
Its all about which ever you consider to be worse, nothing is inheranty worse or better. its all what you think.

Which would you rather have happen to you, being killed(Jew) or being held captive and tortured(Black)?

Black people were slaves for well over two thousand years dude. So were the Jews. They had it rough, and they still do. Your friend is not stupid, you are, for thinking HIS OPINION is wrong.

White males have had it the worst and always will.

It's hard being on top. Sometimes, you just want to be the little guy. Sadly, it just isn't the case.

Even Obama is half white.

[AntiangelicAngel]

It depends what group of 'black people' you're talking about... I mean, if we're talking about African Americans in the commonly understood meaning, then they had it pretty bad, but not too much worse than any other enslaved group over time. However, if we throw in blacks still in Africa, they have it way worse, with civil unrest and AIDS and whatnot.

I call bullshit. I don't belong to any religion myself but I appreciate Jews more than any religion, especially Christianity.

[BlackSapphire]

It's estimated 12 million blacks died on the journey to America, and many more when they arrived.

5.95 million died in the holocaust.

Now that's a pretty good reason as to why blacks were treated worse.

There.

[Monotony]

I'd rather die than being worked to death and stripped of all basic human rights.
Yeah it's ONLY 200 years of slavery.

Plus, I know some black people that face prejudice today.

[BritZombie]

Jews have it easy much easier than blacks or any other race
