Yeah fucking hooknosed mongrels, truth is not for everyone!
Aye!
Aye!
Only with separated races the diversity can be preserved!
Diversity is our strength.
Samuel, Maurice - You Gentile 221S. 1924
Subject: A plea from the depths of despair
Written in 1924, in the shadow of the horrific WW I and the rising antisemitism (which as we now know culminated in the most horrific acts of industrialised murder), Samuels lays out what seemed to him tragically irreconcilable differences between Jews and the (predominantly) Christian Europeans, despite huge efforts on the part of the former to "fit in" with Christian society.
The tone is scathing, caustic, sarcastic. The chapter "We the Destroyers" ostensibly written from what he understands as the point of view of the jew-haters, who see us Jews as destroyers and userpers.
The tragic story of the struggle for Jewish survival in the midst of violence, pogroms, foreseeing even the horror of the Holocaust that was to come.
Clearly, the book is "of it's time", when Jews only started coming out of their splendid isolation and their shtetles, assimilating within modern Germany, and might seem difficult to understand or connect to in light of our contemporary multicultural societies. To understand these writings in the context of their time, one needs to be aware of how rejected and dejected Jews were, from most walks of life and institutions, marred by memories of terrible violence against their ancestors on accusations of being Christ killers and child murderers. A hopeless situation of a people dispersed from their homeland, lost amongst the Christians and heathens, desperately clinging to their ancient religion, books and language.
