I'm loving the conversation, brother. And more than willing to continue considering your viewpoints as long as you're ok with the idea that I may simply be too stupid to see the truth, (lol, jk, but also, I can be stupid!). In my mind I almost see the concepts of "Jewishness" and "Narcissism" as being the same thing. Jewishness is simply narcissism attached to culture determined by birth via the matriarchal line. A narcissist is someone who: - Believes they are ALWAYS right. - Believes they have a right to everything before anyone else - Believes the only thing that matters is them and their desires - Is selfish to a degree that the non narcissist can't hardly comprehend - Believes that they are better, smarter and more worthy than anyone else. - Who believes that ANYTHING bad that happens to them is the fault of someone else. - They argue semantics but refuse to ever discuss core principles. - Feels and overwhelming urge to control the thoughts, words and actions of others regarding themselves. Jewish culture teaches it's members: - That Jewish people are ALWAYS right when compared to non-Jewish people. - That Jewish people have a right to everything before anyone else. - That the only thing that matters are Jewish people and Jewish culture. - To be self focused to degrees that non-Jewish people typically can't comprehend. - That Jewish people are better, smarter, and more worthy than all non-Jewish people. - That anything bad that happens to them is not their fault, but the fault of another. - To agree semantics ad nasueum, but to never discuss pure principle. - To feel an overwhelming urge to control the thoughts, words and actions of others regrading the Jewish people. The major difference between the narcissism of Jewish culture and the narcissism of the individual non-Jewish narcissist is that Jewish cultural narcissism has the support of all Jewish people, working together, to progress their cultural group at the expense of all others. In that sense they ARE a greater danger than the run of the mill non-Jewish narcissist. And you are 100% correct. My only argument is that AT THE TOP LEVELS are the pure narcissistic. These are the families that are both Jewish and non-Jewish. These are not willingly blind narcissists like low level Jewish people and the narcissist across the street from you, or the one's you and I work with, or go to school with. These are family dynasties that have built their foundations on "enlightened SELF INTEREST" over hundreds of years. They KNOW they are narcissistic. And that knowledge has brought them great power. They think the perfect human is perfectly narcissistic and they are leading their family lines in that direction and that direction only. I think their world view is incorrect and only ever results in destruction on a long enough time scale. But I think they disagree with me. And who knows, I could be wrong and they could be right. In conclusion, I think as long as we classify our separations and categorization in anyway (Jewish and non-Jewish, Black and White, Male and Female) besides "has love for self and others" and "lacks love for self and others", then the end result will ALWAYS simply be another fight down the line. As far as Jewish people themselves who claim "it's the Jew(wish)" people... I think they believe it is exclusively the Jewish people. But I still find myself disagreeing. God bless you, brother!
