@BlueTron Delta:
The Chinese show no collective guilt over [lets see]
Killing 70,000,000 of their own
Making the Vietnam war
making the Korean war
making the Tibet war
infanticide
force late abortions

I dont think the joos with their ‘induce guilt in all other tribes’
SCHTIK [yid word] have a chance their, unless they do a financial deal.
Do the Chinese want to study what my local JC offers?
[ Hebrew, economics, sociology, black and feminist studies etc].

@Rerevisionist: Thanks. I recall reading this particular review before the book itself. Economics, of course, has aped the natural sciences, and is now essentially bankrupt intellectually; in far worse epistemological state that one century ago. But witch-doctors can only cast spells when the common folk are in awe of their language, so one shouldn't be surprised.

Trenchant – thanks for the student loans info. It’s always a shock to see plain figures for such things as foreign aid, interest paid to the Fed, black on white crime, all these things. No wonder they keep them quiet. I live in hope that the expenses of science fraud may start to be uncovered soon.

I checked re Andreski, and found I unfortunately never finished my review – I have an desktopsized out-tray with his 1972 paperback buried there. (Amazon removed about 50 of my reviews in total, which I later reposted elsewhere. When I looked at Amazon’s listing of Andreski two days ago, and saw it had no review of mine, I misremembered and just assumed they’d taken it out).

is a longish review.

Andreski, unusually, emigrated from Poland and didn’t start out as an academic – he was something military. He could see sociology ought to face the real world, and to get anywhere he had to write new material, maybe not in his first language . He had the guts to take on people like Talcott Parsons. I don’t know if he was a Polish Jew though – it’s quite likely.

@Rerevisionist: Glad to hear someone else has read Andreski's classic. Sadly, I cannot post an online link to the book, and not for want of trying. Would you care to post your Amazon review - deleted - here?

@Bear: The latter! The witch-doctor's feathers of yore have given way to today's ermine, but he's still a necessary adjunct to the chief in dealing with the subjects.

@BlueTron Delta: Segueing from your observation, a glance at the Fed’s balance sheet shows the storm brewing over student loans.

This is an old battle in the Academy. At UCLA it’s called the North Campus/South Campus battle. The north campus houses the liberal arts college and the south campus the technical schools. To understand this battle one must understand the fundamental schism among Jewish elites. While they are all communist, they comprise two different denominations. The “Liberals” are Cultural Marxist, while the Neo-cons are Trotskyites.

The Trotskyites favor a slightly modified form (modified from Marx’s original vision) of Communism — one in which the state will run everything except the corporations and the corporations will, in turn, run the state.

One of the very few countercurrent sociology books is Social Sciences as Sorcery by Stanislav Andreski, a Pole (or Polish Jew) who lived in Britain. Published in 1973 I think; this is a rare book by now, and is interesting in being written in fairly plain English prose, and in attacking wiuth fairly good humour most sociologists. (I've just noticed Amazon has removed my review of it). One comment Andreski made is that it's a mistake to underrate social sciences; even clever scientists cannot come up with hypotheses as good as sociologists, he says. In fact, nowhere in his book is there any discussion of Jewish influence.

I’m actually confused, is social science really a sincere science or is it always a thinly disguised methodology for promoting Ethno-Marxism?

It would seem to be a genuine need for social science for instance they could be investigating the declining fertility of the western people’s or why couples are marrying so late. I do recall reading one sociologist that didn’t seem to be a kind of liberation theologist her name was katherin betts and she wrote a book called the great divide, She’s Australian. I’m paraphrasing her butbshe noted that lower middle class leftists were actually taking on the values of transnational elites, they were doing this for aspirational reasons i.e. they wanted to have the values of elites and were mirroring these.
