But that’s it right there! Well, actually the above sentence could be turned around, to illustrate the basic pattern of much of Jewish thought, ie; it’s excellent right up until the moment they tie their arguments to the rock of Jewish interests, then the whole thing just sinks to the bottom.

[. . .]

The reason I always sing the praises of Romanticism is because it is the only group of thinkers, artists, writers, etc. for which we have an historical record, whose principal interest could be described as The Drive Toward Reality. (For a better understanding of this read Morse Peckham’s Beyond the Tragic Vision.)

Jews on the other hand are the best example in the West of a group with a Drive Toward [Self]-Orientation. It is so deeply ingrained, so deeply internalized, that for them it is indistinguishable from Reality. [. . .]

I have to once again emphasize that besides the race denial and some cringe-inducing feminism, The Tangled Wing really is excellent.

I know academics are busy, what with teaching six hours a week, but this is getting ridiculous.
