Should We Start Doubting Everything Written by Jews?
Diversity Macht Frei

Since the Black Death was trending on Twitter today people didn’t miss the opportunity to bring up Jewish persecution and how Jews were allegedly “burned alive” in a European wide persecution that occurred in 1348/49 because it was thought they were spreading the disease by poisoning wells. Jews, also, seemed to have had a lower incidence of actual disease.
Looking at a Wikipedia article two things stood out in my mind:
- They try to skew the article in favour of Jews by showing them to be more civilised than “filthy Goyim” by highlighting the barbarity of Europeans, e.g. they point out that the Jews being corralled into ghettoes inadvertently saved them from contracting plague and also that Jews were more hygienic.One reason [Jews were accused of spreading the plague] was because there was a general sense of anti-Semitism in the 14th century. Jews were also isolated in the ghettos, which meant in some places that Jews were less affected [by plague]. Additionally, there are many Jewish laws that promote cleanliness: a Jew must wash his or her hands before eating bread and after using the bathroom, it was customary for Jews to bathe once a week before the Sabbath, a corpse must be washed before burial, and so on.
- Almost all of the authors and studies cited for the article are Jewish. It is against the balance of probability that every single one of them maintained a sense of objective neutrality in writing their respective studies and blandly analysed the facts without embellishment. Why should we believe that they would share the Western thirst for truth and understanding when Jews tend to have an oriental mindset where ideas tend to be valued subjectively and where laws against slander/defamation are codified in their religion?
I am reminded, after reading the article, that the prosecutors/fact-finders for the Nuremberg trials were also overwhelmingly Jewish. Our Western leaders, intoxicated with the spirit of tolerance that haunted America since the 1920s and wishing to put the maxim “all men are created equal” into practice didn’t think letting Jews take charge would be any different to other, less ethno-centric groups.
Could this explain why Jews in the fields that arguably wield the most influence (media/academia/journalism/governance) engaged in aggressive nepotism to ensure their people (and hence ideas) would be overrepresented? If you watch old films they occasionally mention the Holocaust but they don’t mention 6 million Jews until later, it’s always a few hundred thousand (12 to the Moon, an awful film from the 50s, immediately springs to mind).
I think if there’s any chance of bias then disclaimers ought to be included in anything they write, it would at least get people to question what they’re reading and engage in critical thought.
