Another piece of the hostility, which also applies to possible
cures for diseases and to cryonics, is that these measures
cannot possibly work because if they did, they could have been
used to save my loved ones. It is unacceptable that I might not
have done everything possible to save them, so they can't be
true.

The same pattern applies to disbelieving abuse victims. You
can't have been molested by Father Mike, because that means
I failed to protect you.

Likewise, a shiksa is a female goy (presumptively blonde) who
chased our chaste Jewish boy. Because it is unacceptable that
he strayed from our kind on his own.

(Perhaps because the offspring of a chaste Jewish girl, seduced
by a male goy, are considered Jewish, there is no term in use
for a male shiksa.)

Harlan Ellison used to freely admit there was a Jewish conspiracy
that controlled the world but ranted that he wasn't getting his cut of
the proceeds.

(And why *aren't* we well-financed, given how science-fictional
some of the investments of Bezos and Allen are?)
