This could just as well go in the Baseball Forum

On Friday, Temple Beth David — a South Florida synagogue attended by the federal judge who authorized the search of Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence — was scheduled to host evening services on the beach. But a member of the synagogue on Thursday said that the Beach Shabbat event was canceled amid a deluge of antisemitic threats. The judge's involvement in the synagogue had been publicly identified, And who outed the federal judge? That would be ex-Met and convicted felon Lenny Dykstra, in a Tuesday Twitter post, who followed up with antisemitic comments about Beth David's religious practices. https://twitter.com/LennyDykstra/status/1557018193960525824 https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2022/8/12/23302835/trump-fbi-mar-a-lago-search-warrant

How is this any different from the social media campaigns to track down conservative justices eating dinner at a restaurant and trying to harass them? its not. A better question would be "how long can free speech survive" in a society with instant Social Media and lunatics on both sides of the aisle?

The difference is between peacefully protesting (a right) by interrupting someone's dinner without confronting them directly and actual threats. It may be a fine line, but there is a difference.

It's a HUGE line, not a fine one. One is literally a protected right of this country, and the other is insurrection.

Willets Point Aug 15 2022 07:55 AM Re: This could just as well go in the Baseball Forum

Yeah, it's like the right-wingers who try to equate the Capitol Insurrection with the peaceful Black Lives Matter protests of 2020.

seawolf17 Aug 15 2022 08:18 AM Re: This could just as well go in the Baseball Forum

If you can't see the difference between "making some noise to disrupt a rich white asshole at a fancy restaurant" vs "a synagogue having to cancel services because of death threats," then holy shit. There's a CHASM of difference.

Lefty Specialist Aug 15 2022 08:28 AM Re: This could just as well go in the Baseball Forum

Yeah, you might want to re-think that comparison. Unfortunately, too many people in this country believe armed confrontation is 'legitimate political discourse', and they're egged on by right-wing media, a former president and one of the two major political parties. 99% of the lunatics are on one side of the aisle.

Edgy MD Aug 15 2022 10:10 AM Re: This could just as well go in the Baseball Forum

Really, I don't think measuring the difference is worthwhile. We should probably just avoid the semblance of whataboutism to begin with. The key takeaway is that Lenny Dykstra is a disgusting un-American scoundrel, and we should be suitably disgusted by our association with him, however tentative that association might be. In fact, I think this is baseball forum content.

whippoorwill Aug 15 2022 11:56 AM Re: This could just as well go in the Baseball Forum

The Hot Corner Aug 15 2022 04:05 PM Re: This could just as well go in the Baseball Forum

Virtually everything I have seen and read of Dykstra since his leaving baseball leads me to the conclusion that he is an ignorant, racist, sexist, jerk.

That's true. I neglected to condemn the Antifa people who invaded the Capitol on January 6th. Bernie Sanders isn't out there advocating violence. And I guess I missed the vast left-wing conspiracy to overthrow free elections. You want an American restricting free speech, Google Ron DeSantis. Check out what's going on in Idaho, too. Social media is a sewer hole. It's why I stay away as much as I can. But in the real world, there only one party that's off the rails right now. The other party is trying to pass bills and make government work. Guess this'll never make it to the baseball forum. At least we can all agree Lenny Dykstra's an asshole.

I think we could have all agreed on that even if he disappeared from the public eye the day his playing career ended.

Bro, like 6 people already told you the difference, but I'll try, too.



Brett Kavanaugh doesn't live near me, but if he did, and he was having Red Lobster down the street from me and I knew about it, I would roll up in the parking lot and call him a goddamn liar to his face, even if it interrupted his fried krab and 4 beers (because he LIKES BEER). You might find that a bit uncivilized, but that's different than threatening violence and, my guy, you have to see the difference. If you don't, you really gotta try here, cmon.

TransMonk Aug 15 2022 07:10 PM Re: This could just as well go in the Baseball Forum

Yeah, I think way more than half of us that are seeing the apples to oranges, here.

Frayed Knot Aug 15 2022 07:46 PM Re: This could just as well go in the Baseball Forum

But then there's also the guy who, tipped off by protesters to his home address, traveled across the country with the intent to kill Kavanaugh. And the ones who publicize where Amy C. Barrett's young children go to school. Those threats, and intended actions, are every bit as objectionable as assholes hurling shit on the internet about this judge and his synagogue.

TransMonk Aug 15 2022 07:50 PM Re: This could just as well go in the Baseball Forum

Agreed. That behavior is shitty regardless of the target. I'm just not too upset about Kavanaugh not being able to enjoy dessert.

Ceetar Aug 15 2022 07:58 PM Re: This could just as well go in the Baseball Forum

And did those people get money, prime speaking spots on national television, and the martyr treatment? There are no both sides to whatever this argument is. Sure, some more liberal folk also can be nasty evil people, but they're not lauded and promoted (or elected) for it. No one's celebrating them. There aren't some uniform "leftist" politics or whatever. And it's roughly 110% irrelevant to dykstra.

[responding to Monk] Depends on what's being said and how. We all know that the internet emboldens those with the cloak of distance and anonymity (and it's not like internet threats weren't hurled at the Supremes also) but that doesn't mean these in-person 'interruptions' of coffee and dessert are all polite or harmless. p.s. and as I've said before, I find the whole idea of blaming the court to be a waste of energy on top of the half century the pro-choice side has already wasted

Edgy MD Aug 15 2022 08:25 PM Re: This could just as well go in the Baseball Forum

I'm certainly agreed on that. Demonizing the justices is deeply counterproductive. I hope no ex-Mets try to do that. I hope no other ex-Mets try to do that. But Lenny Dykstra is painting a target on a congregation, that may not even include the justice on the evening in question. His tweet also comes as part of a long record of sociopathic choices. But please, don't try to kill any justices or lawmakers who you disagree with, and don't facilitate others to do so. Also, I've resolved to write Keith Hernandez tomorrow, to try to persuade him to utterly forsake the ex-president and his cult.

Frayed Knot Aug 15 2022 08:40 PM Re: This could just as well go in the Baseball Forum

Yeah, I just ignored Dykstra as he speaks Stupid as a second language. Or, considering his butchering of English, maybe as a first. To understand things more fully I'd have to dive into the Twitterverse which I have no intention of doing. He appears to be claiming that there are religious Jews and, for lack of a better term, socio-economic types with the latter presumably being the ones behind socialism and probably international cabals involving pedophilia and banking crimes. The two, in his mind, appear to be mutually exclusive clubs. He claims to back the first but thinks the second is out to destroy the country.

Fman99 Aug 16 2022 06:18 AM Re: This could just as well go in the Baseball Forum

He suffers from being a dumb fuck. And the suffering radiates outbound in a circle with him at the center.

Who the hell would follow Lenny on Twitter anyways? He's done absolutely jack dick for the last thirty five years but be a stumbling piece of garbage. So I looked, he has 8,800 followers. Comfortingly small number, I suppose.

Twitter, professionally, is a godsend for me. It's enormously valuable. Personally? It's hit or miss on its best days. I definitely don't spend as much time there as I used to, and I've unfollowed and/or blocked a lot of people.

Ceetar Aug 16 2022 12:10 PM Re: This could just as well go in the Baseball Forum

I aggressively cull my twitter feed. I unfollow or mute people that even provoke "ugh, that's a misguided or lame take" responses regularly. It's still the best place to go imo for live responses to things like sports and it's also wide-ranging enough that I can pop on and be exposed to all sorts of topics (That I've pre-selected, mostly) that I'm interested in. It's the "show me something interesting, somewhat curated to my likes" of the internet, in short text form. Obviously Tik Tok is better for that, but that also needs more curating, and it's only one thing at a time versus scrolling a whole time line and mentally reading what I want.

Piazza didn't allow us to heal, Luis Gonzalez and the Diamondbacks are the ones that reminded us that the bad guys can lose too. The Piazza home run narrative always feels a lot like "meh, we're rolling back vaccine restrictions and mask mandates". Forcibly pushing a normalcy narrative that feels like it ignores the society-altering course we were/are on.

I like how Edgy addresses him as "Mr. Piazza". For me, that little touch made Edgy's whole post. Piazza may have thought that Edgy was totally unaware of Piazza's baseball background. Which, if true, might have made it likelier that Piazza would even bother to respond.

Ceetar Aug 18 2022 09:21 AM Re: This could just as well go in the Baseball Forum

Piazza loves to get on his high horse and reply in the comments. Since the candidate he was helping circumvent democracy in California still lost he's been a little less political though.

he's "keeping it clean" in the sense that he's not dropping slurs, but standing up and making a video in support of a raging misogynic troll and abuser like Larry Elder, and then promising only to appear at Dodger Stadium if he wins. If you scroll back to the election time from last year, Piazza describes his politics in a very anti-women way. Definitely can't root for Italy in the WBC with this guy at the helm.

I bet he didn't expect a years-ago quote of his to be dropped back on his head. Nice move.

Marshmallowmilkshake Aug 18 2022 03:20 PM Re: This could just as well go in the Baseball Forum

I have a love-hate relationship with Twitter. It changed my job when i was a journalist. Once we were able to tweet links to stories, we were able to grow from telling our story locally to connecting with an audience anywhere. Was pretty successful at it and was assigned training the other reporters. Some of them got it, others were convinced the Internet was a fad and people would always want a printed newspaper. I'm on it every day for work even still. I keep some lists of people or organizations I need to follow. But I don't spend a ton of time reading it. I think it gets abused. People mistake snark for substance. I think it is by far the most negative of the social media platforms. I don't understand the people with 60,000 tweets and 2,000 followers who think the world needs to hear their every thought. The absolute worst, and laziest, news stories are "X event happens, Twitter explodes." Twitter explodes over everything, and anyone can cherry pick a handful of snarky posts that meet their objective to fill their story. That said, it's most useful to me now when there is some breaking news expected, like the trade deadline or Hall of Fame announcement or something like that. I was refreshing over and over the night we thought the Scherzer deal was going to go down. Good for Edgy for engaging and showing there is room for thoughtful and respectful discourse.
