@miltonappl3 Check out Slick Dissident on youtube. It's pretty schizo but he has a ton of insight into what you're talking about. I haven't seen anyone else talk about this.
The Western Canon is largely an encrypted conversation, in some sense as mundane as parents talking so the kids can't hear, but more interestingly it's about the anti-memes which uphold civilization. Advanced math isn't inflammatory, but the advanced humanities seems so to the kids.
I send a pestilence and plague into your house, into your bed
Into your streams, into your streets
Into your drink, into your bread
Upon your cattle, on your sheep
Upon your oxen in your field
Into your dreams, into your sleep
Until you break, until you yield.
Yeah, we did. Pretty definitively. Immediately.
The people you’re calling Christians are as far from the Church as the jews themselves at this point.
The Orthodox Church has remained for 2000 years and has always been expressly anti-jewish.
Here’s canon 11 of the Council of Trullo: “Let no one in the priestly order nor any layman eat the unleavened bread of the Jews, nor have any familiar intercourse with them, nor summon them in illness, nor receive medicines from them, nor bathe with them; but if anyone shall take in hand to do so, if he is a cleric, let him be deposed, but if a layman let him be cut off“
Here’s a quote from St. John Chrysostom who’s Liturgy we celebrate almost every week.
Yes, partially. The 1917 Bolshevik Revolution and Soviet regime's Red Terror included mass executions of Russian Orthodox clergy (over 1,200 priests and dozens of bishops in early years) and destruction of thousands of churches as part of militant atheism. This, plus the 1919 Spartacist communist uprising in Germany, stoked widespread fear of Bolshevism spreading. Nazis exploited anti-communist sentiment by framing themselves as its bulwark against "Judeo-Bolshevism," a core part of their appeal and propaganda. Other factors like economic crisis and nationalism mattered too, and Nazism itself later persecuted Christians.
