“The real puzzle to me is how so many Jewish people are socialists.”
Christians grow up believing in Santa Claus.......Jews believe that there is a government that will treat them fairly with “Social Justice.”
When they grow up Christians learn that Santa is not real and serves only for the entertainment of Children and Make belief adults.....
Jews seem to spend their whole lives believing the Socialist claptrap, ignoring real world evidence of Socialists dispensing Social Justice at the barrel end of a gun!
I have a jewish lady friend ( the widow of a close friend) that you could not convince otherwise...she is as liberal as they come....Thank God her children take after their dad (a goy) and are as Conservative as they come.....Go figure......
Many years ago I struggled trying to understand this from the perspective of the Jews. I read Hannah Arendt’s “The Origins of Totalitarianism”, what a read. It is the complex sentence structure and original language barries that caused it to be difficult. Most challenging read I ever did.
After finishing, I was still not convinced that I understood completely.
Unlike some Jews most Christians understand that there are things that we simply will never understand. That is where faith comes in. Those awakenings that happen after many years of questioning why an event happens are the important subjects. Many times I asked why only to learn years later what the reason was. Part of the plan, his not ours.
