"Marauding fascists and anti-semites" reads like jewish fan-fiction. They are f*cking ridiculous.

They are thinking of the 43 Group which were basically jewish thugs/gangsters murdering British patriots for the crime of supporting British interests.

Are you saying it was total inversion?

Almost entirely as it often is.

I trained as a Teacher of the Alexander Technique 2005-8, taught by someone who had been taught by Walter Carrington. Moshe Feldenkreis came to Walter Carrington (Alexander's right-hand man) for lessons in the 1940s. Feldenkreis published his first book, "Body and Mature Behaviour" in 1949. There were many similarities to The Alexander Technique (unacknowledged) in Feldenkreis's book. Carrington informed Alexander of this, who then spoke with Feldenkreis and subsequently banned him from having any more lessons in the Alexander Technique.

Would you be able to write this up or expand on this or just point me sources as this is a notable addendum to the history of how Krav Maga was stolen.

This was partly a story handed down by my teacher whilst I was training. I'm not sure if it is documented in any of the many books written about Frederick Matthias Alexander (1869-1955). I have all his books. But there is a mention of it on the internet here: https://mouritz.org/companion/article/feldenkrais-method.
