David Baddiel | A Discussion On His Book "Jews Don't Count" | Talks at Google

It's not a bad book, but . . . . it's more than a little paranoiac, much more so towards the end.

Baddiel over-egging the pudding as usual.

Baddiel is such a nasty disingenuous self-serving guy. So fake

More like "Whites dont count" and Jews are overrepresented.

I was working in an NHS hospital. A lot of this is confidential, and legal proceedings are ongoing.
But I am a jew . I have a big star of David tattoo. Everyone knows . Staff in front of me descrbed a patient as " having a jewfro and being a big hairy jew bear " I said " speaking as a jew that's pretty offensive " they said we aren't talking about you " .
The very next day they fabricated a racially motivated vexatious allegation against me of abusing a patient.

Thank you to David Baddiel for writing the book, giving the marginalized a voice, and promising to continue with more.

Seems like anti-semitism is alive and well online if the comments here are anything to go by. None of them actually dealing with the substance of his ideas or book.

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH! 😭

They don't have to...they hire gentlemen to do all the counting.

Didn't he regularly do blackface on tv in the 90's? He 'parodied' a black premiership footballer. It wasn't funny then, and I'm guessing it hasn't aged well.

Why do they all resemble one another ...?

So he did a black face ?
Wanna talk about holokaust?
Know your Place Africa pls

I have a dream😢
Jews always have to defend their “success”, educate themselves about history and take care of each other financially. In Israel, every third child is living in poverty. The more religious you are the more chances you have to live in poverty in Israel.
Jews always felt the need to prove themselves and being good members of society by getting education and staying away from trouble. When all of this is translated into money / power they attack the jews for controlling everything. What about the christians and muslims who are in powerful positions? No one cares about them. No one is scared of their power and success.

I feel it is very unfortunate that he himself has used his position of power to publically discriminate, racially, and 'punch down'. It is a tacky look, but I will still listen to his book.

I am not a Jew but thank you for opening my eyes in such a refreshing way

Insightful and multi faceted interview that highlighted and raised so many questions and issues! As a non Jew, with Jewish friends, I thank you David for speaking out about some of the hidden and overt prejudice they so often face. All racism and discrimination is evil!

Judaism is a racist and supremacist religion. Look in the mirror oh 'Chosen' ones. It is truly nauseating to those around you.

Just the amount of barely cloaked antisemetic remarks in these comments kind of prove his point quite honestly.Its amazing how people feel he is indulging in "victimhood" or looking for sympathy etc and yet people seem to have gone out of their way to comment or even watch Mr Baddiel....is this so you can make a particualr point about how he really should not talk about antisemitism because its really not a thing and yet somehow the mere fact of your commenting here and your type of comments which I see all over SM actually seems to show how prevalent and insidious antisemtisims still is and how it reveals itself often in the most veiled less obvious ways maybe compared to some other forms of racism.

I'm not in any way diminishing the racism suffered by other groups and the very real structural and insititutional and just everyday racism that many black and brown people must expereince but pointing out the less tolerant and darker attitudes and forces that seem to lie latent in certain parts of society is always and always will be necessary and important

P-word Baddiel

Love the book- Precise clear sharp and to the point... Only- nowadays to say Israel is " derailing" the conversation.. I am an Israeli Jew living in the UK- I think u're very wrong to be dismissive , regardless of your personal " non emotional " stance towards Israel being the Jewish homeland- Not to mention there was Never an Arab or any other sovereign state called "Palestine" !!!

Anti-Zionism is the modern form of anti-Semitism.

I’m an American Jew, who is well aware of the ‘Carry On’ films, ‘the Eastenders’, etc. Being only half Jewish, on my mother’s side but having an Irish father, his surname and his blue eyes, I have lived my 51 years as a self-described “Secret Jew”. What strikes me, is the casual nature of much anti-Semitism. Confronting such racism is situational. There are times when I feel compelled to divulge my “secret” and push back and times when I won’t/can’t/don’t. There are many similarities between the British and American Jewish experiences.

HOW LONG COULD YOU GUYS TAKE OF THIS CRAP?.. ''Jews don't count..'' WHAT UTTER BOLLOCKS. Most protected group in the country. Why are we not talking about poor innocent oriental people being attacked on the streets, [ Admittedly, mainly in America ] being blamed for covid?

What a prejudiced , narrow minded thing to say ; '' Chelsea fans like to say..'' He didnt say , SOME or even ALOT, he meant and said ALL OF THEM.

More kvetching for sympathy.

Shame this only has 7.5k views

Well said David. You speak for many Jews who feel increasingly marginalized these days.

Let me guess this video and the book is a load of crybaby anti left pish (the left being the only people refusing to accept the genocide and ethnic cleansing in Palestine)

IMO, a 'fake/flake Jew' who wrote a book stating the obvious. Would only be somewhat interesting if it led him to abandon his association with antisemites and his dangerous and divisive political ideology. In what way/s do Jews count for Baddiel?

Cool talk but I personally enjoyed his blackface material much more

You see and read more about anti-semitism than any other form of racism in the media...this is total BS.

As an Israeli Jew, I was delighted listening to David’s framing and description of the terribly complex situation Jewish people worldwide are facing. I do think that Israel’s actions, together with its involvement with, and reliance on, the Jewish diaspora are quite disruptive. But the main problem is still the fact that people tend to generalise and associate individuals with imagined forces or stereotypes. In any case, David’s sentiments and delivery are both very much on point here.

Is he saying that 'there isn't a massive pro-Israel lobby in the US'?

One month after this is published there is 500 + increase in antisemitism in the UK

Mr."Blackface" !

BS

David Baddiel used to perform in blackface on TV in the UK. Still refuses to apologise. He refers to it as "doing an impression of a black man".

man writes a racist book and first thing he does is blame the progressives for being racist because we object to racists writing racists books. I would not have thought Google would be supporting this crap. but there you have it.

David is a very wise and engaging character. Shame about the ringing phone and the barking dog at the beginning though...

Should have asked him about Jason Lee and the impact David Baddiel had on his career
