“Don’t take any guff from these swine,”
Hunter S. Thompson used to say, and not without reason. The legendary
gonzo journalist found himself constantly confronted with the appalling.
The savage heart of the American dream prompted him to “make a beast of
himself to escape the pain of being a man.” If only out of instinctual
defiance, he refused to take guff from anyone.
American Jews need not make beasts of
themselves, but it is time for them to heed Thompson’s advice. They
should no longer take any guff from these swine. I refer, of course, to
the swine who have infested many of America’s most unjustly revered
institutions of higher learning. There, Sus scrofa domesticus
have constructed a filth-ridden sty from which they spew antisemitism;
advocate genocide; render normal university life impossible; force other
students to study online; and abuse, bully and physically assault Jews
and anyone else who dares dissent from their fetid ideology.
The swine want, of course, the
consummation of the world’s oldest hatred: What Louis-Ferdinand Céline
charmingly referred to as “a pile of a million dead stinking Yids.”
Céline also asserted that this stinking
pile was “not worth the life of a single Aryan.” The adults in the room
appear to agree. Those who should and almost certainly do know better
have been remarkably sanguine about having their institutions infested
with Scrofa domesticus. Even President Joe Biden, in whom so
many Jews put their trust and their vote, seemed content to channel his
predecessor’s famous “very fine people on both sides” admonition on the
Charlottesville Nazis. For Biden and most of his Democratic colleagues,
it appears, some Nazis are more condemnable than others.
As for the high rollers of academia, who
suddenly find themselves presiding over a sty rather than a school, even
this small measure of equivocation is out of fashion. Faculty happily
jump into the wallow while administrators either collaborate or—as is
common in catamites—bend the knee and simply look away. That everything
the swine are doing violates these institutions’ alleged codes of
conduct as well as numerous laws is irrelevant to those who know better.
That they could end the scatologic orgy tomorrow through mass arrests
and expulsions is unthinkable. They are too sympathetic with or too
terrified of the sows.
To what quarter, then, may American Jews
turn? The obvious answer would be to their communal leadership.
Unfortunately, as I know from the many who have contacted me, this only
evokes a sense of total despair—and quite rightfully so. The warning
signs that the swine were gathering have been there for a
quarter-century. The red flags were so plentiful that only the willfully
blind could fail to see them. But the American Jewish leadership chose
to be blind. They either did nothing or were so ineffective they might
as well have done nothing. They had a chance to contain the thing before
it became impossible to contain, but they chose not to.
The reasons for this dereliction are
legion and will be fully understood only in the light of history.
Certainly, the nepotistic gerontocracy that rules the major Jewish
organizations was woefully unprepared to deal with a grassroots
neo-Nazism arising from the political left and the Muslim community.
These leaders often enjoyed seven-figure salaries and flattering
political connections they did not wish to jeopardize by rocking the
boat. Many are graduates of the very institutions from which the swine
have now come wriggling forth. Perhaps it was a simple failure of nerve.
They lacked the strength necessary to face unpleasant facts.
Right now, however, the failure of
American Jewish leaders is clearly manifest. That failure squeals and
snorts and wallows right before our eyes. American Jews should have no
illusions about what this means: They are more or less on their own,
abandoned by many of their political allies, bereft of effective
leadership, and lacking the means for basic communal self-defense. And
it is only a matter of time before the swine burst forth from the
campuses into the broader Jewish community, wreaking bloody mayhem
wherever they can.
Some I have spoken to believe that the
answer lies in the formation of a new organization or organizations
dedicated to active self-defense of the Jewish community and a more
militant and radical resistance to antisemitism. This is a fine idea,
but such organizations will take time to build and the problem is
immediate. American Jews must use the tools they have.
The major organizations are there and
still have enormous political, financial and organizational resources to
draw on. Overnight, they could organize an effective counter-protest
movement and a nationwide Jewish self-defense force. They could hold the
relevant institutions’ feet to the political, cultural and financial
fire. They have chosen not to. The imperative of the moment is to force
them to do so.
This will only happen if the American
Jewish community demands it. The major organizations should be deluged
with emails and phone calls. Donors should threaten to withhold their
money. Denunciations should be issued from the pulpit, in the media, and
even in quotidian personal interactions.
In all of them, there should be not just
recrimination but an absolute and irrevocable demand: Don’t take any
guff from these swine. Stop indulging Scrofa domesticus with
the excuse of free speech and assembly, when neither of those rights
protects organized violence, genocidal incitement and systematic
lawbreaking. Stop pussyfooting around your treasured political allies
and threaten them with a total cessation of Jewish support if they don’t
take effective action. Stop indulging in nostalgia for your alma mater
and admit that these institutions willfully permitted their swine to
micturate on everything you believe in.
Above all, end your silence. Speak up,
speak out, denounce, demand. Be angry, be uncompromising, make it plain,
make them listen. Don’t take any guff from these swine. You still have
the power to do so, though you will not have it for long if the swine
get their way. If American Jewish life becomes impossible, it will be as
bad for you as for the rest of your beleaguered community. Act.
You have a chance now, perhaps for the
last time, to redeem yourselves. Take it. If you cannot or will not do
so, please step aside to make way for those who will.

This article is Spot On. As a Conservative Christian, I conceal carry everywhere, everyday. Just the hint of a threat and I will reveal my true nature. I will protect my family, myself and my way of life. "Don't Tread on Me" and "Come and Take it" mean something in Texas. We believe in Constitutional Carry and we don't give a shit if liberals don't like it. I don't believe that it's a coincidence that Audie Murphy, Chris Kyle and Marcus Luttrell are all Texans. (USA)
