RESPONSIBILITY and THE SELF-ANNOINTED

(Recent Debates:     Passive Aggression      Surrendered     )

(The following essay applies mostly to a minority of Jews. I know the majority are ordinary people, immersed in their personal 'strife and joys'.)

Many Jews seem so compassionate, intelligent, so noble at heart, that their examples alone might characterize the entire Jewish race. And yet, others are so avaricious, treacherous and amoral that their actions alone might account for much of the tragedy Jews have suffered throughout history. In between these extremes are the arrogant, judgemental, activist Jews, self-annointed to eliminate the world's perceived cultural flaws, whether the world likes it or not.

If you are Jewish, this essay is an appeal that you urge your activist elements to act much more responsibly.

Protected by the irrational collective Western sense of guilt about the Holocaust, these activists won't adapt to our own convictions, they demand we adapt to theirs. They do this without considering that all aspects of any culture are interdependent. Of course, particular cultural aspects may need to be changed, but if this is done too forcefully other invaluable aspects may be irreparably damaged. In this case forcing change too rapidly can be irresponsible, however needed in a specific instance. Moreover, the most plausible change is often mis-guided and destructive.

Jewish activists are often intelligent and dedicated, and their passion sometimes causes them to ignore these interdependencies as well as their own lack of infallibility. They can't seem to restrain themselves, it seems to be their nature. Leveraged by the near-automatic support of the Jewish community they have had a greatly disproportionate influence within the Democratic party, our Educational Institutions, our Financial Institutions, and our Media.

As an old espionage axiom observes, the best way to defeat a team is to join it and, for better or worse, every Jewish host is changed.

Jewish activists have been a major reason why today it is legally and socially impossible for white people to promote one another or establish business networks in the US. At the same time they have helped empower minorities, most definitely including Jews, with every form of preferential treatment and mutual support. They call whites defending White interests "Nazis" even as they promote all other Ethnic Groups in general, and Jewish Cultural Interests in particular. Their invaluable support has helped radical liberal Politicians and Educators end our old Family-oriented society. That Conservative, multi-cultured Melting Pot, however imperfect, was once our source of unity and strength. They have helped other liberals replace it with today's single-issue and ethnic groups, the root causes of our present divisiveness and weakness.

The primary characteristic nearly all Jews seem to have in common, their greatest potential both for good and for destruction, of others and of themselves, is that they support one another.

Almost any Jew expects other Jews to think of themselves as Jews. Whatever other interest he may have, whatever country he claims as a citizen, Jews expect that of each other. Given their history, this is very understandable, although the survival value of this unity is debatable. Arguably, it can be a disaster for their hosts.

Obama supporter Jonathan Chait explains "We liberals owe not a small measure of our success to the propaganda campaign of a tiny, disproportionally influential cultural elite." An article in The Times of Israel supports his argument specifically: "Jews DO Control The Media," going on to matter-of-factly describe their control of US Educational Institutions and television. The Times does assume most Jews want to do this responsibly, not simply through political hubris.

Finding how to benefit from the invaluable positive elements of Jewish culture and still survive their destructive corrupting elements is like finding an end to a Möbius strip. Just giving up and trusting in a open mind and striving for justice is fatally naive. That leaves us hopelessly vulnerable to liberal tactical use of word associations like "facist" and "racist" and more personal insults to condemn without supporting facts or logic.

There seems no way to avoid facing the issue, and no obvious solution for dealing with it. I resort to the old British approach of just muddling through. There are worse ways to live than just trying to be a decent citizen by bumbling along with good will and an honest effort. At the personal level, it sort of works.

On the national level, perhaps a solution will be found motivating those who helped propel Democrats to dominance to at least help them avoid the fatal mistakes that brought on the savage wars in Korea and Vietnam. That is why this Korean War Blog essay makes this appeal. That is what I hope.

Ironically, any solution may be too late for the Conservative Family-Oriented Melting Pot which helped pay the costs in blood that saved this Cultural Elite from potential extinction.
