I don't think that exists. I see far more attacks on Jews than any other ethnic group, even ethnic groups who deserve it more.

That may be true in Europe. Not really sure. In the US, evangelicism has severe judeophilia due to Armageddon prophesy. There's also no critical examination of Jews throughout history on what brings about their persecution. If it's spoken of at all, it's attributed to "jealousy" or "scapegoating". Intellectually dishonest. edit: In our education setting we also generally spend more time on the Holocaust and individual stories than we do on WW2.

Their biggest issue has always been lack of assimilation. Just the persistence of distinctly Jewish identities across Europe for centuries is testament to this fact, though we can even see this lack of assimilation between Jewish communities when forced together into ghettos. They moved up the Rhine for trade opportunities, but they never really emigrated. They just moved. Usury certainly didn't help perceptions.

But the main driver of judeophilia is, of course, the Holocaust. Judeophilia may not be as apt a word, here, but it's certainly a shield. Any criticism as a people is strictly taboo because of the big H's big H.

Tell me about it. I know that Jews are more likely to be regressives, but I deny that this is because of some essence of pure evil in their blood. It's because they are more likely to be professionals and so called 'intellectuals'. What is the truth to which you think I am blind?

Why boil it down to evil? They have a high verbal acumen in their blood (if you buy into IQ). They make a lot of arguments. Hell, half their religion seems to be arguing the nuance of just how much they can get away with without violating their holy scrolls. Natural lawyers.

I think the greater question is, just how many lawyers do we need? Does a plethora of lawyers create its own issues? Does an overabundance of the professional class create societal imbalance? Just how much of an economy should deal with and reward financing production of goods, versus the actual creation of goods (and therefore value)? Can an oversized intellectual class be unhealthy for a nation?

I think so.

I never see those people on threads where there's a Jew opposing regressivism, of whom there are none too few.

They exist, but I disagree with the last part. There are too few. Regardless, to praise them would just be the "based black man" meme. The problem isn't one of individuals, but of demographic tendency.
