Christians and Jews: Who are the chosen people?
The idea looks simple at first. One God. One truth. One chosen people. However, the moment you examine Judaism and Christianity side by side, the simplicity collapses. Both traditions claim a unique relationship with God. Both anchor their identity in that claim. Yet they define it in fundamentally different ways. Therefore, what appears as a…

When you meet 1930s Nazi antisemitism now
You enter a discussion expecting conflict. Because politics creates disagreement, this feels normal. Therefore, when you replied to that post, you expected a rational exchange. You made your position clear. First, you separated criticism from prejudice. Then, you accepted criticism of lobbying and foreign policy. At the same time, however, you rejected identity-based exclusion of…

Sympathy for Holocaust and Gaza
At first glance, many people assume that when the concentration camps were liberated in 1945, the world immediately fell into collective moral shock. The narrative often suggests that once the photographs emerged, once the skeletal survivors stood before Allied cameras, universal compassion followed. However, history tells a far more uncomfortable story. In reality, sympathy did…

The total anti-Zionism craze
Let us start with a basic constraint; it matters more than ideology. Once a functional state exists and millions of people live inside it, you cannot morally argue for its destruction. You can criticize an ideology; however, you cannot erase a society without mass violence. Any position that ignores this fact stops being political and…

If tribalism is correct, was Hitler right? Absolutely not
If we really make and want to make a difference between the English, Americans, Russians, Chinese or Czechs, what does it bring? Gas chambers, genocides, senseless wars. Tribalism is one of the worst things that have ever happened. Adolf Hitler, who hated Jews because of religion, nationalism and finally – they look different from an…

US Ashkenazi Jews vs. Israeli Ashkenazi Jews
Ashkenazi Jews once stood as a fairly cohesive group. Rooted in Germany, Poland, and Eastern Europe, they shared not just faith but also a broader cultural experience. They spoke Yiddish, valued education, and carried a European outlook on life. Yet the traumas of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries shattered that unity forever. Some fled to…

They knew about Holocaust from the beginning
They always tell you how the Holocaust couldn’t have been prevented because nobody knew about it. Since I have a deep interest in secret services, and how politicians and shadow groups work with information, I found their claim implausible. They knew about Holocaust from the beginning. It was something big to miss. Not only must…

Saving people from dying? People say no!
My readers know that people are nothing but selfish animals with morality closer to moral nihilism than perfect total utilitarianism. What about when redistributed wealth (for example, the US government) can do little to save millions? Saving people from dying? People say no! This all stems from our evolutionary equipment driven by nothing but selfish…

Make Palestinian cause visible without violence
Palestinians face a dire and heartbreaking reality under occupation. As many famous politicians have stated, they live in the biggest open-air prison in the world. Their lives are marked by economic depravity, lack of educational opportunities, unemployment, absence of investment, relentless checkpoints, and random violence from Israeli settlers and security forces. They face restrictions on…

Banks and alleged Jewish backstabbing to Germany
They often say that Jewish backstabbing of Germany during WWI is a conspiracy par excellence. But since we know that some conspiracies are not actually conspiracies, what was the reality? You can have every possible objection (as I do) to highly organized banking dynasties and super-rich families that are based on religious clientelism (regardless of…
