Test Tube for Humanity
Oh, the Protestants hate the Catholics, And the Catholics hate the Protestants, And the Hindus hate the Muslims, And everybody hates the Jews.
From “National Brotherhood Week” by Tom Lehrer.
As a girl I knew enough about history to understand that even though things were not so bad in the time and place where I lived there were people who got mistreated from time to time. Persecuted for being disabled or eccentric, for being of a certain ethnic group or religion.
From what I knew about world history, it seemed the Jews had received the lions’ share of bigotry as far as ethnic groups go. I knew a large number of Christians around the world had been persecuted and even martyred now and throughout history. They were being persecuted in countries like the Soviet Union and China even as I sat safely at my school desk in America. But I didn’t count those for some reason. Probably because my Christian school told us exciting stories about heroes of the faith and the Bible promises great blessings to those who remain faithful to the death.
Christianity is not confined to any ethnic group or skin tone either. The first church school I attended in Toledo had fewer than half of us who were white. But we were all from Christian families.
“Dad,” I asked, “Why do so many people hate the Jews? What have they done?”
“The Jews are typical of humanity. Like a test tube God set aside for His purposes. A tiny piece of humanity that gives a great view of the whole world. When people look at them it’s like looking in a mirror. They can’t stand their own images.”
Pro-Israel versus Pro-Jacob
I am not opposed to Israel by any means. After what I saw in 2020, I do not trust Bibi Netanyahu because of what he did to his own people. Just like Trudeau did to his fellow Canadians, Boris Johnson to the British, Macron to the French. All in it together. I’m baffled by how many who seem to know about the NWO still can’t understand that the Israeli government has declared war on its own people just like the leadership of every major nation state on the planet. (They suffer the same cognitive dissonance regarding the Trump shots.)
Because of this when I hear about wars going on I suspect it has nothing to do with protecting the citizenry but getting them to kill each other. Just like the treacherous “leaders” did with the democidal jabs. Zelensky, Putin, Netanyahu do not want peace or safe and prosperous citizenry. A reduced population is exactly what the new owners demand. Mr. Global installed them in positions of power and has promised to reward them handsomely once they hand all nations, ethnicities and languages over to him.
The hirelings have betrayed their trust and arranged to sell off the flock while the owner is away. They do not care about the suffering bleats of the poor sheep for they do not care what becomes of them. They think no one will hold them accountable. Because they are fools.
Israel’s government is no different in that regard. As far as its abominable treatment of the people trapped in the strip of Gaza, I can no more condone that than my own government’s treatment of the Native Americans. I guess I’m weird in that I can condemn the actions of a national government without hating the country itself or writing off all its people as pure evil. Nowadays this attitude seems to have disappeared.
Excellent Scapegoats
Let’s face it. We human beings love a good scapegoat. They allow us to vent our anger and fear while increasing our own self-esteem by projecting our own guilt onto the Other. The Other who is nothing like us.
Due to these confusing, scary times people are looking for someone to blame. The favorite leftist scapegoat is—of course—the heterosexual white male. Extra points if he is also Christian and has some money or other estate to his name. This grants him full kulak status in the eyes of today’s neo-Marxist.
I notice a lot of more extreme forms of conservatism are struggling to find people to blame. Some just attack every person scoring above (or is that below?) them in the DEI oppression points nonsense. They rail against women, ethnic minorities, and sex perverts. In that order. The three favorite groups to blame for everything wrong are 1. Feminists/#yesallwomen since they struggle not to confuse the two, 2. Childless singles (especially cat ladies), 3. Democrat voters/anyone who does not fully support and venerate DJT regardless of what he does, 4. Jews.
Censoring people who question or deny the Holocaust is making the vitriol against Jews far worse. People get angrier and suspect they are on to something about the history of WW2 but the cranks running the platforms won’t let them find out or share what they’ve already learned.
Calling a woman a pig on YT or FB may get you censored or kicked off. But that censoring doesn’t prove she is a barnyard animal you can get sausage and bacon from.
After Jerusalem was sacked, the Jews wound up scattered. Supporting one another through family and religious community helped preserve their culture but at a price. They remained outsiders much like the Romani. And they were forced into money lending since they weren’t allowed to own land in Medieval Europe. Some got angry at being mistreated by the dominant culture and “got back” by usury which made people blame “the Jews” as a monolithic group for the horrible deeds of a few incredibly wealthy usurious “bankster” families like Soros and the Rothschilds.
I’ve noticed that the same groups who rail against “the Jews” also rail against “feminists” (all women) for all the world’s evils. A lot like the Woke only angry about different enemies/scapegoats. Because before suffragettes arose in the middle of the nineteenth century evil did not exist according to them.
Only now the left is angry at “the Jews” too. They look too white for minority status, make too much money and now the MSM and colleges have branded them as “colonizers” just like Americans and Brits.
This insane, all-encompassing rage is not of God. It does not just exist on the Left. I believe it is of the devil working through people and we must all fight him in our own hearts first and foremost.
I must turn away from the scapegoat appointed by the group I’m following and look in the mirror to take on the enemy. At the end of the day we all have the capacity for great evil either in following the masses led by evil leaders or turning evil ourselves in opposition. So consumed in fighting evil that we lose interest in all things lovely, true, pure, and noble.
