Is it ok to notice the over representation of Jews?

Th preponderance of Landsmen in the so-called
#IntellectualDarkWeb is also astonishing. It’s almost as if tribe-membership is essential Teflon armor to protect any unorthodox edgy critics of conventional wisdom from reflexive accusations of racism & bigotry. -
Does anybody think that
@jordanbpeterson would be reaping the same kind of hostility for saying the exact same things if his name were Jordan B. Rubinstein? -
I think he would. Sam Harris receives the same amount of hostility as Richard Dawkins. David Rubin finds no protection in his ethnicity either. The Jewish brothers, whom I forgot the name of, also received a lot of hostility, even though they are leftists.
-
I think you underestimate how effective they are in ignoring these things in favor of policing the discourse and protecting the narrative. These individuals are white guys to the left and even Blacks on the right are a joke to the left. While being an ethnic minority can give you
-
some protection in some parts of the discourse, it is not much, and Jews are sometimes overlooked as minorities. If there is any protection is probably related to talking about one's own group, so Jews may have more latitude to talk about the problems with Jews, and so on.
-
Good well-considered analysis. Had forgotten about how much ire Sam Harris has gotten. Doubtful any Jewish-Privilege would amount to more protection, were he even full-blooded or not secular atheist.

Yes but they choose to identify as white when their boot is on your neck. Only when your boot is on their neck do they become Jewish.

Jewish males are to punditry what West Africans are to sprinting — Right?

But Steve, they only gain those positions because they are so brilliant and hard-working. I mean, just read them and it’s obvious.

list must be measured against more massive influence of de facto commentators like Jon Stewart, Oprah, etc.

i once argued w/young jewish lefty who claimed the average state representative has much more real-world political power and impact on our democracy than jon stewart..very revealing of a mindset

Wow. A 1% minority controls about 43% of the political positions we are exposed to in the US. What can other groups do to compete & gain market share in political punditry & have their positions be heard?
-
I wonder if they are already doing it and it’s more about one group out performing another? Or maybe the people who created the environment to fit their specific group are better suited at navigating in it
..I think it’s a mistake to ignore differences in race evolution -
I think it’s more about the initial composition of the US committing the vice of over accommodation. Laws we put in place as shields for minority groups are being used as swords to stab competition from the initial host population. Fear of lawsuits skewed hiring practices.
-
I want an actual meritocracy, not a a market that hires based on race & fear of law suits. 1/2 my race has essentially been racially banned from forming coalitions to combat this prejudice. They get called white supremacist/deplatformed/sued/publicly smeared & essentially ruined.
-
I’m in the bizarre situation of being 1/2 Norman & 1/2 Persian. My Persian 1/2 is considered white in Iran & was white in the US until Obama, when I spontaneously became a person of color. My olive skin never changed. Now that half of my race can organize, but not my white 1/2.
-
The racial label doesn’t matter b/c my looks are self-evident. I care about having freedom to organize, form coalitions & speak. Both my Persian & White 1/2 are minorities in CA. Yet every group gets hiring privilege except whites & Persian population is too small for a benefit.
-
There are issues disproportionally effecting both my races & now that I know how little I’m being represented, I want more punditry market share. This will be difficult to get for my white 1/2 given the diversity industry induced PR, lawsuits, & “diversity” shakes downs.
-
There were only 3 Norman last names on that list. I don’t even know if they are Protestant like me. Normans conquered England. Many Norman Protestants were amongst the first to settle America. Yet only 3 pundits.
