Stupid Jews Make Me Nuts

The only thing worse than an ignorant person is a person who does not know they are ignorant: they think that they are wise and intelligent, philosopher kings in all things. It is one reason why I hate politicians so deeply: they are so very certain of their wisdom and expertise as they shove it down our throats as if it were all really “for our own good.”

I have this same problem with people who were born into Jewish families, but know less than nothing about Torah Judaism – which does not stop them from dismissing the Torah as “foolish and superstitious.” They grow up secure in the knowledge that they are more enlightened than all their forebears: that they are, in fact, too enlightened to believe in anything at all, except their own intellectual greatness.

The problem is that these very same people of Jewish ancestry retain an obnoxious (if effective) sliver of what it means to be a Jew: to proclaim what you think is right, even if everyone else disagrees with you (trust me, I am aware of the irony). They might not be right, but that certainly won’t make them shut up.

I happen to believe that the most evil and destructive anti-Torah people were, invariably, born Jewish. Spinoza. Marx. Freud. And many others.

The devils of our age are fallen angels. Like the Satan of Christianity, these evildoers started off with the possibility of being forces for good – but then they could not resist the intoxicating temptation to turn others away from G-d: they fell just as surely as Satan did.

Note that I do not call these born-Jews “stupid.” For they were most assuredly supremely gifted in intellectual capability. But being smart did not make Spinoza wise: he attacked the concepts of free will, revealed religion, received ideas, tradition, and morality. A Jew who left school at the age of 14 considered himself sufficiently wise to discard everything that made his very existence possible. The world of intellectuals lapped it up, conforming as it did to their own conceits about the superiority of the intellect over religion.

Which brings us to the founder of Communism. Marx was no dummy. He was just wrong. The death toll from his misbegotten and totally ignorant ideas is mind-boggling, dwarfed only by the opportunity cost of what might have been if his ideas had never been shared. Another devil.

And Freud? While Marxism killed an enormous number of people, Freudianism, the dominant way of thinking about peoples’ very thoughts in most of the 20^th century, continues to plague us today. Freud taught that nothing is really our fault. Freud attacked the notion of true personal responsibility, spreading the mind virus that none of us are truly capable of free will. That belief is, of course, a self-fulfilling prophecy. Freud’s diseased logic built right off Spinoza and yes, even Marx, who believed that external forces necessarily and always overcome the individual. And people adore this way of thinking: Freudianism justified every self-indulgent neurosis, sucking away human potential and creative energies. He gave everyone license to follow their appetites and blame others for them, to wallow in navel gazing and learned helplessness. Freud produced the intellectual bedrock of today’s diseased society.

Thanks to Freud, for 50 years, the world of intellectuals knew – beyond a shadow of a doubt – that any male who denied lusting after his mother was, of a certainty, just reinforcing the fact of that lust. The entire logic is bonkers. It was bonkers then, too. But that didn’t stop smart people from believing it. Beware of ignorant Jews.

I read recently of the famous “Anna,” a subject of Freud’s work. This poor woman was almost killed by the “treatment” administered to her.

According to Breuer, the many hours he spent with Pappenheim ultimately resulted, in 1882, in her complete cure. But Breuer’s actions belied his claim. That year, Breuer had her transferred to a sanitarium, where she spent most of the next two years and another two months in 1887. During the course of her stays, she was probably treated with and became addicted to morphine, in addition to chloral hydrate. Talking, alas, was not a miracle cure after all. Eventually, she got away. And she straightened herself out. By the turn of the century, she had achieved prominence as an advocate and activist for vulnerable women and families. She founded the social-welfare organization the League of Jewish Women (ultimately dissolved by Hitler) and was a pioneer in the fight against international sex trafficking. Because her personal papers did not survive World War II, there is much more about her life that we do not and cannot know, including how she herself looked back on her psychological ordeal. One clue: She reportedly remarked that “as long as I live, psychoanalysis will never penetrate” her organizations.

And Freud’s made-up fantasies about this very woman became the basis of all “educated” ways of thinking about how people think?! It is sheer madness.

And we have yet to outgrow it! Our own Joseph Epstein recently reviewed a book about Freud. Absent were any of the observations seen above, the fact that Freudianism has enabled and authorized every whining self-obsessed activist today, the fact that it sucks free will and positive individual growth out of every society it touches. Instead, Epstein ends the review with:

Psychoanalysis was never about morality, either teaching it or practicing it. It was, and remains, instead, about healthy skepticism, about rejecting the illusions of full-time happiness and instead living in acceptance of what Freud, along with Josef Breuer in their book, “Studies on Hysteria” (1895), called “ordinary unhappiness.” The therapist Susie Orbach, in her essay in “On the Couch,” takes this phrase to mean not living in unhappiness but being able “to live inside and from oneself with all its conflicts and longings and the connections it is possible to make with others.” Ordinary unhappiness—sounds to me not a bad place to be. Where do I get a ticket?

If I was not so angry, I would weep.

Of course, we today are no strangers to mass psychosis. Indeed, we tend to focus on the irrationalities of our age. In 2024, we are still infected by the practitioners of the Covid Mask, publicly declaring their eagerness to wallow in human frailty and fear.

But we must not forget that mass madness is as old as time. The English used to be obsessed with rabies from their dogs, even though death rates were low – while tuberculosis cut through the population like a scythe. Nobody cared then. And nobody cares about facts like this now.

We have been poisoned by these fallen angels to think that there is no free will, that the individual is not important, that Philosopher Kings can and should dictate the affairs of men for the Greater Good. We are taught that nothing is our own fault – we can blame nature or nurture, but certainly not ourselves, never ourselves.

Jews who know nothing of the Torah become its greatest enemies. I am pretty sure that Spinoza, Marx and Freud, for all their ignorance, knew at least that much.
