a comment from a poster at UNZ
I will just drop it here in its entirity

When Cortes took Mexico City he was shocked to see his native allies running from house to house, pulling women and children out into the streets and slaughtering them. The Spanish, while happy to have native allies, didn’t expect this degree of hatred and vengeance by them against the Aztecs. Given how brutally the Aztecs treated surrounding populations, though, it’s not surprising.
After the Fall of Tenochtitlan the remaining Aztec warriors and civilians fled the city as the Spanish allies, primarily the Tlaxcalans, continued to attack even after the surrender, slaughtering thousands of the remaining civilians and looting the city. The Tlaxcalans did not spare women or children: they entered houses, stealing all precious things they found, raping and then killing women, stabbing children. […] some sources such as Israel Charney, John C. Cox, and Norman Naimark have likened the siege to a genocide.
Of course, such atrocities are not uncommon in history especially when one group which has long dominated another loses the upper hand and “falls off the tiger”, if you will. Notably, nobody cries for the Aztecs today even though they were subject genocide (or something tantamount to it) and no longer exist.
Nor does anybody cry for the the French slave owners in Haiti who were massacred and genocided – men, women and children – by their black slaves.
Nor does anybody cry for Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette or other victims of the French Revolution.
Nor does anybody cry for the millions of Germans who were murdered and ethnically cleansed from Central and Eastern Europe at the end of WWII – the greatest ethnic cleansing in human history to that date and which most people have never heard of in contrast to the extensive coverage given to the mainstream Holocaust narrative which took place in the same conflict.
Why do people not cry for these people? Well, for one: All of these people are seen as having been some combination of malevolent or incompetent rulers/aggressors who “got what they deserved.” You might object: “Did all the women and children deserve it too?” “No.” you’ll hear. “But that’s just what happens in war.” Or: “You sow the wind you reap the whirlwind.”
But when it comes to the Jews – and the hundreds if not thousands of times in history that they’ve been subjected to expulsion or “pogrom” or “genocide” – the framing is completely different. We’re taught that the Jews never ever did anything wrong and, thus, we must cry for them and feel guilty for what our ancestors did to these totally innocent people. We’re taught that the Jews in Spain did nothing at all to provoke their expulsion in 1492. We’re taught that the Jews in Germany were entirely innocent and powerless victims who did nothing to provoke the hatred of the Germans during WWII. We’re taught that the Jews in Israel today are entirely innocent victims of an unprovoked attack on Oct 7. We’re told that the Jews in America today are entirely innocent and powerless people and that all hatred directed at them by “anti-Semites” is entirely irrational and based in “baseless canards and conspiracy theories” such as the “Great Replacement”.
Of course, who tells us these things? The Jews themselves do – either directly, through the Jewtube/Idiotboxes which Jews control the programming of, or indirectly through the people around us – friends/family/acquaintances – who repeat to us what they heard said on their Jewtube/Idiotbox. (And who then get most nervous and grumpy if you dare question it.)
Is this framing of Jewish innocence and powerlessness correct? (Notably, it’s a childish, Disney-esque, good-and-evil story, like Hobbiton & Mordor or Dumbledore & Voldemort. Is history ever so childish and black and white? When it comes to the Jews we are supposed to believe that it is. This couldn’t be because the Jews narrate the story, could it?) Or is the more accurate framing, in each of these instances, something like the relationship between the Aztecs and the Tlaxcalans, or the French in Haiti and their black slaves, or Marie Antoinette and the French peasants – where the Jews are the rich and powerful oppressor and the gentiles are the poor and oppressed masses?[1]
Because if the correct framing is the latter then the Holocaust is just another instance of a group (the Jews) sowing the wind (against the Germans) and reaping the whirlwind – as did the Aztecs, the French slaver owners and criminally negligent monarchs who’ve been overthrown – and decapitated – throughout history.
Moreover, were the Jews in Weimar Germany guilty of what the Nazis accused them of? Were the Jewish communists in the USSR guilty of murdering millions in Eastern Europe and would Jewish communists have done the same in Central Europe if given the chance, as Hitler warned?
[Hide MORE]
Are the Jews in America and Europe guilty today of the Great Replacement program which will ultimately result in the extinction of white Christian peoples and their civilization and culture with them? (Elon Musk himself, in agreeing with the above tweet which got him into so much trouble, seems to think that they are.)
Have the Jews in the West architected a system of economic and political privileges which effectively guarantee their status as an unaccountable ruling class and caste? Do Jews not rule what are, effectively, fake and fraudulent “democracies” through a combination of media control, candidate pre-selection and the bribery/financial puppeteering of all major political parties? Have Jews not hacked Western “democracies” such that they control both sides of every political contest? Have the Jews not created a totally unaccountable and oligarchic political system which puts them on top no matter how the public votes or who is elected – and where anyone who dares point this fact out is defenestrated – thereby neutralizing the normal, peaceful, liberal mechanism for correcting this situation: free speech?
Are the Jews not misruling their white Christian subjects/hosts? Kim Jong Un, for all his faults, is not engaged in a program of demographically dispossessing his own people – the Korean people – in their own historic homeland. Xi Jinping, for all his faults and illiberalism, is not demographically dispossessing the Han Chinese in China. Perhaps this is because KJU is Korean and Xi is Han Chinese? Only a malevolent and unaccountable alien ruling class would do something so despicable and evil as to demographically dispossess their “own” people – the people over whom they rule. Not even Kim Jong Un is *that* evil. Only Westerners are ruled by people that evil and that powerful and unaccountable.
Furthermore, Xi and KJU don’t force their subjects to pretend that they have no real power in an attempt to skirt all responsibility and blowback for any and all of their failures (e.g., the Iraq War). They own up to the fact that they’re in charge and this keeps them, to at least some degree, accountable to their subjects – unlike the totally unaccountable alien rulers in the West who never suffer consequences for any of their catastrophic policies.
The Jews have, it seems, after being subject to countless expulsions and “pogroms” for misruling other hosts in other times and places, evolved a new mechanism to ensure that this doesn’t happen again: prevent the host from acknowledging their power. After all, if the tiger is inebriated or lobotomized into falsely believing itself riderless and free then why would he bother to buck the parasitic rider off his back (and then maul him to death for good measure)?
The “keep them inebriated” solution is the short term solution, however. After all, it only worked for so long in Germany and ended with the rise of Hitler. The long term solution is the “Great Replacement”. Why are the Jews perpetrating the Great Replacement?[2] One reason is simple revenge but another, and perhaps the primary reason, is because they’re terraforming their host to make it maximally safe and comfortable for themselves to continue to parasitize off of long-term without fear that the host’s immune system will kick in again and give rise to another Hitler. They want a maximally diverse West – a West where the white Christian populations are rendered helpless minorities (or, perhaps ideally, completely dispensed with) – and thus easy to divide and rule. They want a West where whites are deprived of all effective control over their own “democracies” as that’s the best prophylactic against another mustache man.
Of course, if you’re committing such a horrible crime against a people you might reasonably fear that, should that people wake up to your villainy, that they’d elect a leader who would thwart your plans and punish you for your crimes, right? Which raises the question: Were the Jews doing the same things in Weimar Germany that they’re doing in America and the West more broadly today? Because if so, it casts Hitler in a totally different light – not as a villain but as a hero and savior whom useful idiots, like the Americans and Brits, fought against and killed. It wouldn’t be the first time that the gentiles murdered their own savior – and at the behest of the same tribe.
Notably, Jews feel the pressing need to complete the Great Replacement fast, as seen in “son of Holocaust survivors” Mayorkas’ complete opening of the floodgates, less their host/victim wake up, thwart their plans and punish the perpetrators. This is also why they’re so over the top in their denials that this is their design: They know that they’re guilty and are terrified that the public should catch on to their schemes before they’re too advanced to be stopped.
[1] Theodor Herzl himself wrote, in The Jewish State arguing for Zionism and separation from gentiles: “When we sink, we become a revolutionary proletariat, the subordinate officers of a revolutionary party; when we rise, there rises also our terrible power of the purse.” But, this is “hate speech” according to the ADL. You can’t describe Jews as a politically corrosive force, or as having ever been rich and powerful, or as exploiting their wealth to misrule other peoples.

[2] Their cover story is typically that it’s about “love, tolerance and multiculturalism” – things that they don’t practice in their own supremacist ethnostate – Israel – a state which is what we’re told Nazi Germany was in every way, except on steroids. So that’s not the real reason.

History is amoral. But lying about it is immoral.
That very long and racist comment by a poster at UNZ, which was posted here (ld | Feb 12 2024 15:00 utc | 145) contains quite a few lies. One is a complex lie of omission and false analogy to construct a rather elaborate argument about the supposed guilt of a “group” that “falls off the tiger”, conflating the Aztecs, French slave owners in Haiti, Louis XVI, and the German people, … and forgets the Japanese and others, and their “justified” massacring by the invaders and their “native allies”, the Haitian slaves, the French revolutionaries, and US/UK militaries (and the US alone in the case of the Japanese), respectively.
These different histories are brought up in order to protest that “we’re taught that the Jews never ever did anything wrong”, clearly implying two things: 1) the Jews are guilty of things/crimes similar to the things/crimes of Aztecs, etc. and 2) therefore, they deserve (“no, but…” and “we must cry for them…”; not) the crimes that were committed against them, in Europe (they “provoke the hatred of the Germans during WWII”) etc… This is clearly promoting anti-Jewish hatred.
He then gets closer to home. “Jews in Israel” and “Jews in America”, “Jewtube/Idiotbox” and nervous friends. Then the deeply intellectual question that is posed by the UNZ poster of that diatribe without a trace of irony: “Is history ever so childish and black and white?” No, apparently, history is a series of reprisals that fit the racist views of a liar.
I say the UNZ poster is engaged in professional defamation that serves only the racists, including the Zionists. As a Palestinian who grew up under the Baathist rule (before and after Assad the father), I find racist anti-Jewish views of people who were never subjected to Zionist aggression and genocide to be particularly jarring. I fully understand my brothers in Palestine referring to the Zionists as “Jews”, because for a century practically all the Jews they know are Zionists and vice versa, and this is what the Zionists aimed for and achieved in Palestine. But in Syria, the prevailing term to label all things Zionist is exactly “Zionist” and “Zionism”; I struggle to recall any reference to Jews in any political context, by anyone!
it is notable that aside from the Zionist/imperialist genocide against our people, there is not a single crime cited by the UNZ poster and attributed to the “Jews”. No, to paraphrase the first half of his post “people are punished for crimes, and the Jews were punished, so they have committed crimes, and they are committing crimes now that they will be punished for”, which punishment must be, according to his logic, by killing them off. The poster’s racist views are dangerous because they bolster the racist, Zionist narrative that Jews are particularly victimized and that they are indeed special! Not perversely, and while we live under the imperialist yoke, such racist views actually promote the genocide of the Palestinian and other Arabs. Such anti-Jewish racist views also become harder to reject the more they are allowed to “explain” the Zionists’ war and their claim to be the exclusive representatives of Jews, and only that. The Zionist anti-Arab and Islamophobic ideology actually feeds on anti-Jewish ideology expounded by the UNZ poster, so winning any Arab/Muslim to the latter is a big bonus to the former.
The UNZ poster then jumps into an open promotion of Nazi, anti-communist ideology, which flows quite logically from his racist views. That he lumps communists with Jews is, I am sure, a familiar Nazi trope, as I am sure he would elsewhere lump communists with the Nazis when it suits the context.
The questions that he rhetorically poses about Jews and their control of the “democracies” are answered with a simple “no, you Nazi scum!” I won’t bother to do more than that. But the last he asks “Are the Jews not misruling their white Christian subjects/hosts?” and<,/i> “Were the Jews doing the same things in Weimar Germany that they’re doing in America and the West more broadly today?” and his suggested answers are clear justification of the genocide against the Jews. The finer points of language aside, they should be considered agitation and incitement to commit genocide against Jews (“maul him to death for good measure”), and by extension, against any group that the imperialist, white supremacist “mustache man” find expedient to massacre.
