They pretty much bred favoring intelligence, but they got some strange mental patterns because of that.
So you have your higher average IQ and tons of unique diseases and neurosis.
Nobody would really care about them if they weren't messing around too much.
They just enjoy 1) making everything about them 2) push destructive shit 3) get collectively defensive over anything.
They should chill more.
Ancient wisdom held that everything is best in moderation. I believe the same is true of intelligence, too. Being a little bit above average seems to be the ideal amount to make people successful in life. People who are actual geniuses tend to be crazy, and often wind up being useless. For whatever reason, intelligence seems to correlate with craziness.
Nobody has ever accused Blacks of being the smartest people around, yet they're the happiest ethnic group in America despite also having a really shitty situation. Likewise, has anybody ever seen an unhappy retard?
I think the Ben Shapiros of the world with their neo-conservative positions (those on the right who are in favour of a lot of foreign wars, particularly in israel's favor) are no less a problem than then far left, whether supported by jews or gentiles... but neoconservatism just like far leftism is a jewish movement originally.
Though that prelediction only gives reason for jewish disproportionate success in the modern world (and even the IQ difference doesn't fully explain the large overrepresentation at higher education); it only addresses one of the many criticisms that there are.
I despise Israel and Right-wing neocon types too, I just respect them on some level. They cause problems, but the problems they cause are not as severe. They also tend to have better character, excepting their deceptive nature.
Take Israelis for example. I feel like creating Israel was wrong: they confiscated the land from the people already living there and moved in a bunch of outsiders of another culture. It's a colony. The Palestinians have every right to be upset. But, the Palestinians are still savages, while the Israelis treat them rather well (for hostile natives) and have made the place more livable than the locals would have. The Israelis also have a fine, masculine/militant culture instead of being degenerate parasites. But they are still backstabbing leeches, and I wish we had a President who would just tell them to fuck off. Ultimately, I would like for Iran to be the top dogs in the area (I think Persians are the best people around there), but I can't abide that for as long as Iran is going to antagonize the US.
Neocons are mostly bad in that they're rats who pretend to be conservative so they can move the Overton Window. I'm not all that opposed to the Middle Eastern wars and still have a soft spot for Bush, even though I know I shouldn't. Hussein had to be cut down to size, as did Al-Qaeda.
Yeah if you look further back in history, various rulers have used the Jews a convenient scapegoat for whatever they were up to. Not only were the Jews the "out group" of any country they occupied, they also had wealth and would lend money to the rulers, which made people view them with suspicion and distrust, and when it was time to place blame on the Jews and drive them out, all their loans were cleared by force, how convenient for them.
If all the Jews were killed, then the financial and banking power vacuum would have to be taken up by a new party, who would eventually through typical networking and family favoritism would end up being viewed in the same way as the Jews decades and centuries later.
When people say there is a disproportionate representation of Jews in certain fields, it's simply the result of self selection over generations. Most banking and merchant families were Jewish, people in their network would be Jewish and get a leg up. Those people became financiers themselves, of other projects, and eventually become a pioneer in their own field. And you always need money in order to finance businesses. You need money to make money. Now remember, money is power, and power corrupts. So the stereotype of the rich, corrupt, immoral Jew, is just the result of this self selection process over time.
Of course there are plenty of people that are Jewish that are in the low to middle class, but most people ignore that, because they guys at the top are doing so well and have so much power.
Now I'm not saying that the Jews are a super persecuted "i dindunuddin" group, but neither are they the reptilian vampires others speak of, as usual the truth is probably somewhere in the middle.
Have you read "Black Rednecks and White Liberals" by Thomas Sowell? It has a chapter on "middleman minorities," which describes how in every region of the world, there is some minority group which fulfills the same social role of Jews in terms of both the work they do and the position of being scapegoats. In Southeast Asia, it's Chinese diaspora. In Africa, it's traditionally been the Lebanese or Asian Indians. In the American Frontier, it was White traders.
The Jews as a whole trend very Far Left (when not Libertarian; in generally, they tend to be highly modernist, but never reactionary), but as you said, they aren't all the same. It's the small Jews I worry for since they're the ones most likely to suffer when the public gets tired of the rich Jews' shit. The Soroses of the world will fuck off to another country, while the average people (like the ones I know) will get left behind.
I think (unlike much of the Alt-Right) that the modernist Jew problem didn't really emerge until the late Enlightenment. Even back before Marx, most socialists were gentiles. Somebody, I think Solzhenitsyn, noted that it was reactionary Jews living on shtetls who were the most content, while the "emancipated" ones who were partially integrated into society were the most aggressive.
