/lit/ - Literature

Shalom, /lit/

I am deeply sorry to report that we Jews, through no fault of our own, have--yet again--been persecuted

Yes... it is true.

We are victims

I take no pleasure in being an innocent Hebrew who has been pogromed by a big strong goy. This position of immense cultural and moral and legal authority is not one I enjoy being in. That hateful goy was likely jealous of our admittedly massive brains and gigantic two inch penises (reluctant though I am to admit it)

In these trying times, are there any talented Jewish voices who can speak to me in my darkness?

We Jews are no strangers to suffering. My grandfather was once denied admission to Harvard and forced to attend Princeton, a school only 25% Jewish. When he became a movie star, he was refused sex by his shiksa costar and forced to settle for a much older (practically geriatric) middle schooler.

In his pain, he found solace in the writings of talented and intelligent Jewish writers who are talented geniuses deserving of their stature. Talented and cruelly under-discussed geniuses like Roth, Sontag, Arendt, Ginsberg, Bellow, Freud, Mailer and Franco. Great pillars of literature, who are sincerely deserving of their fame and stature.

Now that I must suffer to watch Jews get murdered on my television screen (a fate more fit to Palestinian babies), I ask merely for the comfort that my grandfather took when wasn't allowed to join a country club or get 15% off on 2 6oz cans of Heinz Baked Beans. Cans that were clearly marked 15% off in the aisle he took them from.

Indeed, I ask for that great fount from which we Jews have often drunk, that noblest and most envied trait of ours: genius.
