The experiences described here and at other times on this board reminds me of a candid exchange that I had with a Dutch businessman on a transatlantic flight. I was really blunt with the guy, and asked how the Dutch can tolerate their own grotesque uber-tolerance: drug use, sexual perversion, open Muslim immigration, heavy welfare state, etc, etc, etc. He frankly said that the Dutch embraced any leftist idea for the sake of the idea being leftist, even if that idea was self-destructive. It was not only fashionable to be leftist, to be anything else was to be subject to ridicule and ostracism.
And frankly, that's the observation of this Gentile about Jewish people in America and Europe today: Too many will accept self-destructive leftist ideas because it has become a matter of self-identity to embrace leftist ideas, not because those ideas work. What leftists Jews fail to realize is that their uber-tolerance is reaching critical mass. For years, leftist Jewish organizations were fundamental in establishing a welfare state in Europe and the United States, while undermining white South Africa and right-wing governments in South America, and other destructive ideas.
And now, the latest cause-celebre college campuses is a Palestinian homeland. Jewish leftists cannot imagine the reality that a day is coming when the leftist agenda that they've long supported will turn and bite Jewish hands. And that day is coming, faster than even I realized, with the Kenyan interloper at the helm.
