You have to believe in the Magic
The organizing and controlling principle of any large and complex system/society is, essentially, magic.
When magic fails, rejection and unrest ensue on the part of the governed.
Pax Judaica is just another smokescreen, from a long list of psyops to cow us into ritualized submission in exchange for perceived comfort, and as each fails, far more draconian measures ensue.
I tell Him: It's ok to be an anachronism, if we live in anachronistic times.
