DEI will destroy the market economy. It is not possible to have equality of outcome and a free market. The two are incompatible. You cannot have quotas and a free market.

You have been voting for socialism all your life.

You already destroyed the market economy when you votes for clinton, gore, obama, clinton again, and Biden. You have fully centralized industry and increased barriers to entry.

Perhaps you ought to be apologizing to Hayek, Mises, Rothbard, and so many others that tried to save America from people like you. People who were good hearted, relatively moderate, but didnt understand a damn thing about economics.

And where, precisely, is antisemitism brewing on the "hard right"? Who is the hard right? According to the NYT the hard right is anyone who disagrees with them, including Jordan Peterson, and your former student Ted Cruz.

Name one person that is "hard right". Do you mean MAGA? The 70M people that support non woke policies, fiscal responsibilty, border security, safe streets and homes, and a free market are "hard right"? Is a non interventionist foreign policy "hard right"?

Are you referring to the small group of neo-nazis marching, the same actors hired by the Southern poverty law center?

Do you mean Alex Jones, the guy who rails against the deep state, klaus schwab, and the military industrial complex? Kennedy and Eisenhower expressed similar concerns. Are they "hard right"?

Can you name one person? Who is the leader of this "hard right" movement?

I agree 100%. Good article. As Ronald Reagan once said: “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”

The enemies of Jews are enemies of the white race in general.Jews are simply an identified substrate of white people, and yes I know there are a few Black and Asian Jews, but the many Jews I have known have known are white, By that I mean there are Spanish Jews, Italian Jews, French Jews, German Jews and Scandinavian Jews all for the most part indistinguishable from the area in which they live of originated, indistinguishable from white people and have the same diversity as their fellow white people. Some Jews may think that they are in another category, neither white nor brown or black, but Jews. In My Opinion they are fools. My point is that all whites are being discriminated against, all whites are being humiliated by DEI and CRT, and we must all unite on pushing back. Killing DEI, CRT and other Marxist creeds is a goal that must be shared by all whites including Jews, for if they destroy the Jews we are next on the woke,connie, Leftist menu.

My daughter has sent me a number of Instagram links, such as @jewhatedb, that show that antisemitism is rampant and widespread throughout social media, places of employment, academia, and everyday life. I imagine some of this has been in reaction to the Israel-Hamas war, but I believe that these people were always antisemitic but now feel justified to be open about it in public. Definitely the "Golden Age" for Jews in America is gone.

Excellent analysis. However, many children of liberal Jews have not figured this out. Obvious example. You are personally non grata at Harvard. I went to a selective private school with no quotas whatsoever. Everything was based on merit and there was No DEA garbage. In my day, it was a majority Jewish school. Today it is nearly all Asians. They get it, children of liberal Jews do not.

“Jewish doctors are still saving lives” - not for long. Check the data regarding Jews admitted to medical school , now and for the past few years.

The future will not be like the past. Relativism will ensure that capability ceases to be the determinant by which scientific research is funded, prized and advanced by captured publications. The same will be true for finance and entertainment. Look at Disney. Musk is an aberration. The future is Gates, Zuckerberg and Fink fronted by Gay and sheltered by Willis.

Sadly the free market and free-enterprise are rapidly fading from America’s list of values. I welcome professor Dershowitz to the ranks of liberals.

What comes to my mind after agreeing with this column about meritocracy is a fantastic organic chemist, Dr. James Tour from Rice University. He is Jewish descent and reaches out to help university students from minority groups start businesses with their inventions! (e.g. amazing graphine and it's multiple uses!)

Please look him up and invest in his work.

You should see what is happening to the WASPs.

This is also going on against Whites. First they came for the Whites... then they came for the Jews... [or reverse the order]. It's racism and discrimination no matter what.

C'mon Alan. The Golden Age is a long, long way from its discontinuation. There is of course no perceptible change economically; the Mega Group, the billionaires' group known for sponsoring Jeffrey Epstein, is alive, well and still both very wealthy and mega-influential. Significantly AIPAC's foreign agent activity is not at all diminished, and actually has intensified. AIPAC, maintains its Capitol Hill purchasing power by owning the votes regarding Israel of a big majority of elected officials in the House of Representatives, the Senate and going further to include decision-makers and the managers in the Executuve Branch.

It is both tiresome and irrelevant for you to reach back to your grandfather's time in Khazar areas of Tsarist Russia and turn Frank Zappa's words around, saying "It will happen here"..America has a problem with its "democratic deficit" and it would be decidedly a good thing to restrain AIPAC bribery so America can have control of its foreign policy and strategic activitiesd.

There is a famous (or infamous) adage regarding the Jews that left Europe for America... From the ship, the Jew would look back on Europe and say "Goodbye G-d I am going to America" .It is obvious that Jews flock to Judaism in times of trouble but take on the attributes of any country that allows the harbor. As to the reverse... Jews were warring against each other in Jerusalem even as the Romans were breaking down the walls to butcher them all. Blame Jewish family life. Thank G--d for the like of Chabad !!
