How do the street antisemites identify Jewish people?


by 5 south m

I'm guessing it's the guy that dismembered his girlfriend and put her in a suitcase in Phuket. Think he got extradited back home somewhat recently to serve out his sentence which is a big win for him to get out of the Thai jails. Google some of those key words and you'll probably find it.

found shane looker, sadly they don't mention poker forum werewolf game at all though :(

Guy's nick was NewTeaBag. Allegedly killed a hooker in Thailand or something.

That's all I know and want to know.


yeah, that's the guy

i just did a search of suitcase gf murder extradition and found articles on him


NewTeaBag, one of his many aliases, was the guy, yeah.

But he was not the first poker player to murder and dismember a Thai prostitute. Let us not forget Ron Fanelli…

Jeez man, is that like a common hobby amongst poker players or something?


Wait, I checked the user notes. NewTeaBag was Ron Fanelli apparently?

Alright, so yeah, the one we are apparently referencing is Ron, not Shane. Ron was the one who murdered someone during a ww game.

This article is linked in the user notes for NewTeaBag: https://www.billrini.com/2010/07/27/ron-...


tons of poker players moved to Thailand. it was a big thing.

I was kinda talking about the dismembering hookers and stuffing the body parts into suitcases part, not the moving to Thailand part.

Wait, isn't/wasn't rickroll in Thailand? Maybe he's pulling a sick level on us and he's really Shane Looker.


Yes, he rage quit his last ww game on June 14th 2010, murdered her on June 18th 2010, and was arrested and charged for her murder about a month later, approx July 19th, 2010. So yeah, the timeline was pretty tight.

WW is very stressful.

WW is very stressful.

That game did tend to bring out the worst in some people, myself very much included in that category..

Being misinformed, and being an antisemite, or two pretty different things. Then there's being misinformed and actively spreading your misinformation. That's yet another thing. And finally, there's being misinformed AND having a thing against Jews. Aa a Jew you learn to parse through those in life. That's how you might stay friends with say Dave Chapelle, but stop being friends

You made it sound like half your friends routinely talk about Jews killing Jesus, not that they were misinformed about things until you set them right.

You can certainly pick your own tolerance, but it really makes no sense to expect more from strangers than you do from friends. That's not how friendship is supposed to work.

You got that from: "Half my friends believe Jews killed Christ (still to this day)"? At best, that's an interpretation that requires some leaps.

Since we choose who we're friends with, they tend to share more of our values than the general population, which could (fairly, I believe) set up higher expectations.


Wow I wish Mets hadn’t been discriminated against and was still here.


I won’t miss the drama.

Given Raffi's wildly inaccurate description of alleged "no-go zones" in the US, it's pretty safe to conclude he's either FOS or has a very peculiar friend group.

How would he know if they 'still' think that if they weren't mentioning it often?

Your second statement is agreeing with me, I guess?


There are accounts in the gospels that make the Jews look pretty culpable in the crucifixion, though they are not the most plausible. Obviously, the Romans actually did it.

What I never got was, why be mad at any of them? Jesus came here to suffer and die for our sins. Someone had to kill him.


Same reason any group gets made a scapegoat so that unlimited violence can be inflicted.
