KEVIN MacDONALD writes about the Jewish reaction to Donald Trump, whose anti-immigration stance some see as reminiscent of Nazi Germany. This is not surprising, as Jews are taught from infancy by their own culture that they are hated.

There has been extraordinary, almost unhinged anxiety among some Jews about Donald Trump’s campaign for the GOP Presidential nomination. It has no solid basis, but unfortunately it does speak to their profound neurosis and alienation from the historic American nation.

[…]

As often noted here, mainstream Jewish political attitudes and behavior in the US, from the far Left to the neoconservative right, has always been directed at lessening the demographic, political, and cultural power of White America. This is exemplified by the successful campaign to enact the 1965 immigration law and, even more significant, the continued support for high levels of immigration by the entire organized Jewish community.

There are two main reasons for this: a concern that a homogeneous White America could ultimately rise up against Jews, as occurred in Hitler’s Germany (see here for discussion of a recent American example involving economist Bryan Caplan); and historic antipathy toward Christian Europeans, an outgroup seen exclusively in the context of the Jewish preoccupation with anti-Semitism.

Obviously, these attitudes are not shared by all American Jews. But they do represent the thrust of Jewish power in the U.S. And we know this is not a principled stance, but rather is a form of ethnic strategizing in the diaspora, because the organized Jewish community also supports Israel as a Jewish state that restricts immigration of non-Jews and is actively involved in the dispossession of the Palestinians.

For Jews, anyone they don’t like equals Hitler. Joseph Sobran once noted that “An ‘anti-Semite’ used to mean a man who hated Jews. Now it means a man who is hated by Jews.”

Nothing shows more clearly the willingness of Jews to exploit their own suffering than their use of the most trivial occasion to invoke either Hitler, the Holocaust, or Nazis. The ad nauseam repetition of this pattern has long since made the invocation as unremarkable as it is predictable. They want reverence from others for their suffering, to the point of veritable worship, but they themselves treat it like currency and do not hesitate to profit from it — either financially, morally, or politically — at every conceivable opportunity.

You write that “Jews are taught from infancy by their own culture that they are hated.” They are also taught by their own culture to hate, and, frankly, I believe they give considerably more time and attention to the latter lesson than they do the former.
