Truth is not Anti-Semitic but Iran nukes are bad

Really, the essay is in the title.

I write a lot about how we are in the Age of Symbolism which replaced the Age of Idols, and how the herd behavior of flocking around a symbol causes pathological reality-denial and thus, horrible long-term results when reality comes knockin’.

This means that we are distracted by symbols when we should be looking into reality instead of at its surface, as reflected in the reactions on the faces around us.

It is normal and healthy to care about people and their feelings and needs. However, when we need to solve problems, socializing/emoting has to step aside, and this includes what the Buddhists call “judgments” about reality.

We need to look at reality like a machine and figure out what went wrong so we can fix it. Cause-effect logic, not consensus or aesthetics, is our friend here.

I am a failure as a far-Right writer because ultimately I like people, care for people of just about every ethnic group (except the French), and want the best for all human groups. I am on the Right because I recognize that diversity and socialism threaten all people.

For this reason, my stance on Israel and Jews puts me at odds with most of the Right and now, much of the Left. Oh well. I think Israel is a great place for only Jews and all Jews; the diaspora should end; Theodor Herzl was right!

The Left hates Jews for the same reason the Left hates Whites and Japanese. If you rise above, you threaten equality. Equality (=) is the symbol Leftists pursue, akin to the Christian good (+) where lack of equality is seen as artificial and evil (-).

The Right hates Jews because Jews are the most successful form of diversity in the West and therefore threaten our culture, order, and genetics. Again with a formulation:

• Left = equality/individualism

• Right = order/naturalism

Anything foreign is a threat to culture and order; diversity itself is a threat, which is why Rightist critiques of diversity are of the form “all foreigners out” rather than the hybrid Right-Left White Nationalist trope of “Blacks and Jews are bad.”

We are now under threat by the fear of anti-Semitism more than anti-Semitism itself. Fear of anti-Semitism is going to lead to a revival of blasphemy and hate crime laws in a way that will inevitably lead to censorship of anyone criticizing a Jew or Jewish idea.

To my mind, Israel is doing great as a nation, and it makes sense to move out the Palestinians and reclaim some territory for this rising nation surrounded by a middle east that is mostly poor, dirt simple, and violently jihadistic.

After October 7th, I have trouble blaming Israel for an extended tantrum against Palestinians and Iran. These forces sponsored the attacks. The retaliation is not so much revenge as a future deterrent.

My guess is that the current war against Iran has more to do with that than nukes, but we also see what sure looks like an Iranian nuclear program yet they refuse to allow anyone else to inspect it.

This suggests that whether or not they have nukes, they are working to get them. Nuclear proliferation itself is not a good thing, nor is letting an unstable nation with ballistic missiles like Iran get ahold of nuclear weapons.

For this reason, I have no problem if President Trump decides to flatten the bunkers at Torgo or wherever. What I oppose is another “forever war” like Iraq or Afghanistan where the goal is to democratize/Christianize the middle east.

They do not want our help; if they wanted democracy, they could and would achieve it for themselves. American foreign policy has made this mistake time and again, trying to mold nations into our image when they need an entirely different way of life.

Even more, they need to preserve their culture, and letting our neocolonial paternalism replace theirs with ours is a type of slow genocide.

I caution against scapegoating Jews because this makes us mentally associate our destiny with them. It also leads to horrors; even if The Holocaust was simply a slave labor program that killed 273k Jews by disease, it is still a horror.

Most of the time, what people associate with The Jew is in fact related to Christianity or liberalism. The disease is within us, which is why we cannot identify it, which is why scapegoats are mentally easier (but will lead us away from victory).

Even the Jews warn us against this. In the Bible, Jesus is the scapegoat for the failings of the Pharisees, following the story upon which the Bible is based, that of Socrates who was executed for teaching kids allegedly subversive stuff.

For this reason, anti-Semitism seems stupid to me, but so does fear of anti-Semitism, which is going to lead to some important observations of reality — dual citizenship, failure of Abrahamic dualism — to be censored and punished in the future.

With that out of the way, it makes no sense to oppose Israel and potentially Trump blasting the Iranian nuclear program to bits. Iran is an unstable theocracy and should not have the bomb.

However, saying this out loud is too complex for the voters and too heretical for the media, so it will remain a minority opinion. Help! I feel discriminated against! Someone send me reparations and put me on a CNN talk show.
