This is my magnum opus on the Jewish question and my final reply to @TOOEdit . I respond to every important objection raised over the past 5 years. - is it just IQ? - role in open borders - why Jews avoid white nationalism - reasons for anti-Semitism etc.

Still No Evidence for a Jewish Group Evolutionary Strategy

Cornel West earned "$15 million or so over the last 30 years....'I live paycheck to paycheck', says West....No one so far has explained how someone so successful became so broke....West blew it on many things, especially women..."

Why Cornel West Is Broke

Divorce filings reveal allegations of a “secret life” and help explain why the presidential candidate, who has earned millions of dollars, has hardly anything left.

A popular idea in moral psychology is that, compared to liberals, conservatives care more about "purity," which is rooted in fear of disease. Doesn't seem to be holding up very well with respect to covid...or many other areas of life.

Wokism is the logical consequence of assumptions that are widely shared even by people on the right. Every important institution is staffed with woke ideologues who only hire their own kind. Criticizing wokism in the workplace can be illegal. This isn't going to just fizzle out.

Academia is funded by money taken from taxpayers at gunpoint. Scholars have an obligation to be worthy of that support—i.e. to be minimally competent. "Academic freedom" doesn't mean fields w/o standards need to be protected forever just b/c they gained a foothold in the academy.

Look how fit high school students were in 1962. It's probably not a coincidence that the deterioration of our bodies was accompanied by a political movement based on feelings of fragility and helplessness.
