The State of Antisemitism

“Antisemitism” has changed

In the late 20th century, Jews were the top dog in the American elite, and “antisemitism” was strictly verboten. It was relentlessly policed by the MSM and “watchdog” orgs and relegated to the fringes of society

This is the world we all grew up in and are accustomed to with Dr. Pierce railing about the lemmings bamboozled by the Jewish media, but that world is … increasingly archaic?

The analogy that is stuck in my mind is how the Southern planter class was gradually eclipsed by Northern industrialists. Slavery became controversial when it was becoming antiquated. It suited the interest of Northern industrialists to have the public outraged at the Slave Power

Similarly, it suits the interests of Silicon Valley tech barons to have the mob, so to speak, outraged and fixated on the Jews or anything else like race. It is actually useful to them

Elon can present himself as the slayer of the mainstream media. You are the media now. The old 20th century Jewish MSM is antiquated and collapsing. Elon & Co. owns the “media” now and it is a partisan outrage washing machine like the late 19th century media

The big picture of the Civil War era is how American traded one elite – the old antebellum Southern planter class – for a new one which was the Gilded Age Northern industrialists. That’s who “won” the war. Not pathetic freedmen who were forgotten, but the railroads ?

Silicon Valley and tech is the modern equivalent of the 19th century railroads. They have “won” the 2024 election. Government policy is going to favor tech and it doesn’t harm them to have people raging against the old declining Jewish media elite

To put a bow on this:

In 1820, an activist calling for the abolition of slavery was speaking Truth To Power, but by 1850 that type of activist had become a useful instrument of rising Northern industrial interests. Antislavery was mainstream

That’s like us today ?

The trajectory of tech from the 1990s to 2024 is reminiscent of the railroads and the telegraph from 1825 to 1865

BTW, Lincoln was a railroad attorney, and a puppet of these interests in the Republican Party. Trump is Lincolnian in this sense

I have a hot take for you today.

Jews are a declining elite like the antebellum Southern planter class in the 1850s and 1860s. Silicon Valley is like the 19th century railroads and industrial interests. Antisemitism is going mainstream. This is reminiscent of how antislavery went mainstream. Just as it suited the interests of rising Northern industrialists to have the North outraged at the Slave Power, it suits the interests of Silicon Valley tech barons in our own times to have the public outraged at the Jewish liberal establishment.

Note: This occurred to me after Elon demonetized Jake Shields, Dr. Loupis and the other anti-Zionists who have spent the last year raging against Israel on X. Elon didn’t mind the “anti-Zionists” and probably found them useful until those accounts began criticizing him over H-1Bs. He wasn’t willing to “go to war” over racism, anti-Semitism or Israel or anything except his own financial interests.
