    The Alt-Right embraces the bizarre anti-Semitic conspiracy theory that Jewish intellectuals advance Jewish interests with theories that undermine Christian culture. Nathan Cofnas refuted the idea & now responds to a reply by its major proponent.https://geneticliteracyproject.org/2018/04/16/analyzing-kevin-macdonalds-culture-of-critique-and-the-alt-rights-embrace-of-anti-jewish-ideology/ …

        What's "bizarre" about this "conspiracy theory?" @sapinker In Jewish "Forward," Wesley Yang agrees w/ Kevin MacDonald (@TOOEdit) that ACLU's Warren Court outlawing of school prayer was basically Jewish cultural muscle-flexing. Wang just says it was good http://www.unz.com/isteve/wesley-yang-on-microaggressions/ …pic.twitter.com/vEXSZPYJ6o

        @sapinker It's perfectly natural for a rising ethnicity of smart, energetic, ambitious, and combative personalities to undermine the formerly dominant culture and status system. E.g., SJ Gould invested immense efforts in blackening reputations of WASPs Morton, Galton, even Darwin

        @sapinker The problem today is that Jews continue to claim to be victims even though they are the current top dogs (in IQ, wealth, influence, etc.), and thus Jews very seldom notice that they ought to take on the responsibilities of noblesse oblige.

        Cofnas's rejoinder to my reply is replete with misrepresentations and intellectual dishonesty. The problem is that few people will take the time necessary to seriously evaluate both sides of these issues and will instead go with their preconceived notions https://www.researchgate.net/publication/324164802_SECOND_REPLY_TO_NATHAN_COFNAS …

        Do you mind uploading a revised version of your second reply where you don't falsely claim that I used a wrong edition of Moses and Monotheism? Thanks.

        Will do, but one still wonders why you confusingly included a citation to a 1967 reprint of the version with no way to know from your comment that it was a reprint of the edition I used.

        The text of my paper explicitly says it's the "same edition," and the reference in the bibliography indicates that it's the same Viking edition.
