Don't play stupid, stupid.
Jewish guilt has been a trope for decades.
=====
The concept of "Jewish guilt" has been a longstanding trope in popular
culture, particularly in media and literature. It often refers to the
perceived tendency of Jewish people to FEEL GUILTY OR RESPONSIBLE FOR THE
ACTIONS OF OTHERS, or for historical events such as the Holocaust.
The trope has been used in various forms of media, including TV shows and
movies, often as a comedic device or to add depth to a character.
The portrayal of Jewish guilt as a trope has been debated, with some arguing
that it can be a way to explore themes of identity, responsibility and
community.

Judaism has a long and rich history of dealing with guilt. Perhaps the most
well-known is the concept of Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. On this day,
Jews are expected to fast and pray for forgiveness from God. They also perform
the kaporot ritual, in which they swing a live chicken over their head three
times and then slaughter it. The chicken is then donated to the poor. Other
ways of ...

Guilt is a very Jewish feeling. Maybe it's the pressure that comes with being
told we're God's chosen people. Maybe it's our mothers. BS: It's rare to see
parents in a family novel be in an open relationship, which Scott and Deb
Greenspan are.

Now, my husband could employ Jewish guilt like a scalpel. When my kids were
young teens and complaining about the injustice of the world, he would just
sigh and say your grandfather went to Auschwitz at 13. Your grandmother hid in
a basement for 2 years. Tell me how bad your life is? They would slink off. I
guess that falls under generational ...

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition
All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.
"Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has
been driven effectively insane due to their dislike of Donald Trump, to the
point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."
Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the
Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into three distinct phases or
stages:
"In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The
president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm, as if 140 characters were
all it took to change the world."
"The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's
vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting solely of
hyperbole."
"As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from
reality."
The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk
opposition from liberals to anything and everything Trump does. If Trump
announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would
suggest he was up to something nefarious, according to the logic of TDS.
There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be
received positively by TDSers.
The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early
2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was a punch line for late-
night comics and nothing more.
Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first
coined by the late conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer back in 2003.
The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in
otherwise normal people in reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay -
the very existence of George W. Bush."
