My friend ‘The Black Rabbit on Inle’ (hereafter Black Rabbit) directed me to his article on the alleged jewishness of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt (hereafter FDR) on his Substack a few weeks ago after the subject of his alleged jewishness came up on X/Twitter.
Hey, this is perhaps an offtopic question, but have you ever written any articles on intergenerational censorship of the JQ? Its shocking to me how post WW2 Eastern Europe was extremely redpilled on Judaism (e.g. the Hungarian uprising), yet today it seems like they are overwhelmingly unaware of Jewish influence save for a robust minority. The Civil Rights movement also stressed separating the swinging Western youth from the traditions and beliefs of their stuffy conservative parents. It really feels like Judaism thrives on exploiting youthful naivety and rebellion and channeling it into disconnecting younger generations from older generations but I've not really seen any definitive write-up on how this phenomenon plays out to the point we are rediscovering J-critical ideas from 100 years ago that are still extremely relevant to our society even today.
I think a better case can be made for LBJ. Not only did he look Jewish Sephardic, but he taught school in some Texas Sephardic community. Lady Bird looked Jewish too.
Which is more important, more influential as to what one thinks and does: that one has a distant Jewish relative/ancestor, which would determine some kind of biological/genetic connection; or that one is aspirationally Jewish as Elon Musk recently stated; or that one surrounds himself w/ Jews, becomes immersed in Jewish culture, as all recent presidents (and about half of adult America) have done?
Interesting 🤔. Thank you Karl.

Interesting. I've been suspicious about him in the past.
Ultimately though for me that just shifts him into the category of "might as well be jewish."
