App that turns innocent sentences into spiteful audio clips. First pass scans text
and searches for each reference to race, sex, ethnicity, or any other identifiable
demographic and replaces it with an offensive equivalent. Second pass runs
converted text through a standard text to speech generator
to generate and
audio
file.
Fun for middle schoolers playing on their cell phones during recess. Because
naughty words are funnier when read by a robot voice.

It's a pity the "thet" of "epithet" is not an onomatopoeia. But with
this app, you could make it one. |
|

This is just the sort of thing that Hitler would use... |
|
| |
Yahbut think of all the people that would be put out of work. |
|
| |
Nigel Farage's speech writers ? |
|
| |
Mind you, if it can be configured to be specifically anti-Semitic*, Jeremy Corbyn will buy it. |
|
| |
*Since Israelis and Palestinian Arabs are almost identical genetically, it's a poor choice of terminology. |
|
| |
Exactly. So being "anti-Semitic" means "anti-Palestinian Arab". |
|
| |
And accusing the Palestinian Arabs of being anti-Semitic is saying "You hate yourselves". |
|
| |
While we shudder to speak favourably of Ken Livingstone, his statement that "Hitler was a Zionist" was historically fairly accurate, otherwise why the Office of Jewish Emigration run by Adolf Eichmann ? |
|
| |
Well, at least the US is friendly to the Jews. Why else name a
park "Yo! Semite!" |
|
| |
Not all Jews are Semites*. Not all Semites are Jews. |
|

We suggest you draw a Venn diagram to assist in understanding the distinction. For added clarification, it may be helpful to draw part of the diagram as a very thick black line, denoting the presence of a five metre high concrete barrier between Jews and non-Jews. |
|
| |
Or us that Mexicans ... ? |

*According to Rabbinical Law, if you observe the precepts** set out in the Torah, you are a Jew. There is no requirement to be "inducted". Ancestry is irrelevant. It is quite possible for a person of Oriental or Nordic parentage to be Jewish, all alone on a desert island*** as long as the dietary code and prayer rituals are properly observed. |
|
| |
** including circumcision for males. |
|
| |
*** some prayers and rituals have minimum requirements for the presence of specific numbers of adult male Jews to be valid. |

Just wanted to point out that the idea was for an app that
does the hate speach. [Cuit] did not intend to write an idea
on HB that would generate semi-automatic responses of
hate speech by halfbakers. |

Also, "self hating" people have been quite common
throughout history. The term refers of course to the hatred
of their own group, customs. religion, common traits,
ethnicity, nationality and even to hatred of people of the
same group. There were always people who denounced
their religion or who felt alianated to "their people". So
being a "self-hating Jew", an accusation usually held by
more conservative Jews against more radical or liberal
Jews, is not impossible. It is well documented that
assimilated Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto (who did not
identify themselves as Jews) had expressed their hatred to
the Jews of the Ghetto, tended to cooperate and even
identified with the National Socialist party, and even
participated in attrocities. The same goes for the Creolic
Karaite Jews of Krimea, who decided to identify themselves
as "the true Israelites" and distance themselves from "the
Jews", and joined the SS en masse. Sadly, hatred is a trait
that is easily aquired by all humans. |
|
| |
At the same time it must be mentioned that the Creolic
leaders supplied many Jews with false papers that allowed
them to survive the holocaust. |
|
| |
On the other hand the term antisemitism meaning hatred of
Jews was commonly used in European literature and politics
(in Poland and Hungary there even were parties named The
Antisemites). This antisemitism was of two kinds and held
two related directions: 1. Hatred due to religious beliefs -
and following that hatred of the traditional religious Jews.
2. Hatred due to ethnic differences - politics and economy -
and following that hatred of the assimilated Jews. |

The pogroms in Odessa for example were amplified by the
Greek Orthodox church along with the Russian Orthodox
church, every year during Easter, especially after the
Turkish massacre of Greeks in Istanbul. The Greeks claimed
that the Jews were pro Turkish and anti Russian. There were
rising tensions in Odessa when Jewish murchants entered
the Sugar trading industry in the port after Greek merchants
had lost money after an economic crisis. But in the curches
the main emphasis was that the Jews were worthy of
punishment for their slaying of Jesus. |
|
| |
In Goebbel's movie showing the Jews as rats to be
eradicated, the hated image of the traditional Jew was
transformed into the even more loathed image of the
assimilated Jew. |

That's what [xenzag] is for. Just mention Donald Trump, Monsanto, or any one of a number of other trigger phrases and the bile and venom flows like water ... |
|
| |
Oh, and thanks to [pash] for some useful and dispassionate historical background. |
|
| |
You have some triggers as well, 8th.
Just mention cats, Hillary, Wales, Jeremy Corbyn,
children, and the bile and venom flows like water. |

Why not replace all nouns with better nouns? |
|
| |
By "better" I mean nouns such as fishbone. |
|
| |
"Fishbone to fishbone: fishbone generator"
"Fishbone that turns innocent fishbones into spiteful
fishbones" |
