"More often than not, the ultimate “victim” of the offenses denounced in the German press is no actual Jewish person, but only the German state."
"The story [of guilt and fragility] is not about Germany, but a certain segment of society, about the reactionary radicalization within a bubble of political and cultural elites: disproportionately white, disproportionately identified with existing institutions, and disproportionately—let’s face it—neither Jewish nor Palestinian. It is among such people that we can see a defiant reprovincialization of the German spirit: a pride in not understanding or participating in analogous debates that rage elsewhere, a perverse pride in imposing one’s own categories, as though historical guilt confers true expertise."
