Apparently it is fine that the article mentioned he was jewish at the start but when I did it was beyond the pale.
I was hoping maybe someone would have some insight, maybe there is an intellectual tradition, maybe there are some special schools, maybe there are other reasons why jews in the 20th century seemed to have some strong intellectual achievement.
Or maybe I am just a jewish supremacist/antisemite. Hard to keep track which one I am supposed to be.
