What Is It About the Jews?
(“Shadow Puppet”, 2023, original encaustic)
What Is It About the Jews?
We live in a time of irrational fear and phobias
From fear and loathing towards one’s own body
And parents (about as basic to hating life as it gets),
To the rapid rise of anti-semitism
After the Oct. 7th massacre.
Now, as it was in Europe in the last century,
Jew hate is all the rage
From college campuses to the halls of Congress
And still it’s the same old same ole.
The problem is the Jews are the hyper rational ones,
The ones with a whole standard deviation higher IQ.
And this may not seem like much to those who cant understand
But it becomes oppressive to have them always overachieving!
And this oppression in academics
Business, entertainment and science
Makes the self-oppressed feel the victim
And so they, as they have always done,
Project their fear (in the form of hate)
Onto the Other.
Do the Jews sometimes play their own victimhood up
And so manipulate the less intelligent all the more?
Of course.
But that is the way of the world
Those who can, do
And those who cant, teach
And those who cant teach, just complain.
Even if the Jews didn’t exist
We’d have to make them up
To have something to complain about.
Maybe that is exactly what we do.
