I am worried about Jews controlling the media and Hollywood. I would be worried if Mormons did the same. Or Catholics.No one particular demographic should be in control of all that power.
And why is it that google is not helpful when I try to look up this answer? Why am I pushed to add sites with spurious clams about Jews controlling 96% of the world's media instead of something like TheHill breaking down the facts? Is this topic so taboo that we can't talk about it?
To be fair, Jews readily admit they're overrepresented in Hollywood and the media. I mean, Joel Stein and Ben Stein come right out and admit it.
On the other hand, who ever talks about the Italians control of waste disposal and gas stations?
Yeah, there was The Soprano's, but I don't think people realize just how powerful organized crime really was, or the pies they had their fingers in:
Or, what about the Saudi money out there? How many US companies are they invested in? How many university buildings have they bought?
I mean, I'll admit Jews are seriously overrepresented in some very lucrative fields, considering they make up only about 1% of the US population, but I also think they're overrepresented as the boogeyman of the top 1%, when the truth is there's a boatload of 1%ers in the US who aren't Jewish, and many 1%ers in Russia, India (I think India has more in the upper ranks then anyone), Saudi Arabia, etc etc..

96% seems to be far more than just a bit over-represented. It speaks to a cultural push, within the demographic, to control Entertainment and Media. Which has the greatest amount of power in the US.
However...doesn't that also mean the Jews likely control the right-wing media outlets, too? I don't understand why this happened but my friend says it was part of the mass immigration back in the day and it was a profession/job that they could readily pick up and it became their thing similar to Waste Disposal and Casinos/Gambling for Italians. He means there is probably a perfectly reasonable, non-tin-foil hat explanation for the weirdly extreme overrepresentation.

That is not much of a defense if you vote the same. It is like all of the Republicans who denounce Trump, but then vote for all his policies.

So because Richard Spencer votes the same way in a binary election cycle, I’m not different from him if I vote for the same of two options? As if I can’t have different reasons from him for voting against the Democrats?
Also the logic is silly. You can agree Trump, as a human being, is a piece of shit and still agree with some of his policies.
Otherwise...if Trump came out right now in favor of the Green New Deal all the crazed leftists who support it...they'd suddenly be expected to stop supporting it, right?
And LBJ was a racist piece of shit and all around a piece of trash, but you can feel that way and still support his civil rights policies.

Does it really, though?
Have as great a cultural power as we think? If it did, wouldn't there be no need for frothing at the mouth talking heads, or diversity initiatives, or sensitivity training?
If jews really did invest in media as a form of cultural control, Trumps election may have them thinking about a refund.

Yes. All of these failed Trump investigations would hold no merit if they held no sway or power.

Guess who is behind pushing the Politically Correct stuff for these last 3 decades?

The fact that that a warmongering, corporatist masquerading as a progressive who had the personality of a robot, won the popular vote, should be all the evidence you need that there is a power structure in place that is the strongest in the US.
How different would the election have been if 90%+ of the coverage was negative for Hilary like it was for Trump?
Your point about Jewish overrepresented right could be explained by Jews not being homogeneous on social issues.
Think Catholics who welcome same sex relationships, vs those who do not.
Alternatively, depending on a more cynical (And perhaps bigoted) explanation, CNN and Fox were never meant to represent a Jewish political view at all. The executives in charge simply cater to whatever sells, and an extreme left/right dynamic draws in the rubes.
Like professional wrestling and the hero/villain face/heel dynamics.

It is almost as if supporting people and policies that will perpetuate racism is itself racist.
