I don’t think it is very accurate – or wise – to speak in generalizations like “the world” or the “the Jews.” It’s especially annoying when you hear people in the media making sweeping “we” statements, like “We have to do something about climate change” or “We have to stop racism.” If there is anything that should be patently evident to everyone (especially Kabbalists): there is no agency – no such thing as “I,” not least a collective and murmurating “we.”
There are all kinds of people and all kinds of religious and spiritual practices that have the potential to effect positive change in the world, some more, some less. The wisdom of the Kabbalah is one of the more powerful, effective, and complete systems, but there are many others that are just as (if not more) promising as solutions to universal egoism. Such systems include, but are not limited to, certain Sufi orders, the Gurdjieff Work, the Baha’i Faith, many orders Buddhism (especially the Tibetan schools), the direct path of Advaita Vedanta … and don’t even get me started on the the secret, esoteric groups whose work, though hidden, is probably doing more to effect redemption and correction than any open or known movement (Yazidis, Druze, Mandeans, Mazdans, Gnostics, etc.).
Our hope lies not in any one group or movement or religion, but in the whole “shakshuka” of conscientious individuals and groups of people of goodwill who should come together and harmonize our ecologies practice toward a more well-directed and pluralistic management of egoism and engagement of altruism.

Jews naturally hold themselves to a higher standard. Reformed Judaism is starting to teach more acceptance than rebuke. You can be a Christian to day and walk into a synagogue and they wont ask you to convert in reformed Judaism. They wont ask you to do anything, and they will even teach you to live like a “righteous Goyim” im the Noahide traditions and law. Torah teaches us that one can be a righteous gentile and still be accepted by all Yehudi. This is commonly called “Grafted in” by many secular Christians. That being said Yehudi is not literal in the sense of literal torah. When one understands these allegories just like the ones of Zohar are coded they can see that the “famous history” in Judaism is just the preservation of allegories that lead to Kabbalah, which is what makes a Modern Jews special. We gave our lives to protect this way, and back then we didnt even know what we were protecting, we just made sure it was protected because we knew it was special.

Maybe Nature divides the Jews, because when they unite, they have the tendency to form a nation in this world of Malchut.
And Nature does not want more nations, it wants more people with points in the heart.

Malchut is a nation of above and is actually a “help against us”, we are a people of this world not who dont recognize the tree because of the screen. We take for our own pleasure, when we can see the upper worlds and notice this portion of the tree of life we already start the process of changing our perception which is in the intent to repair the screen. Jews of this world are human Jews of malchut are spiritual. Torah teaches that we are to love our neighbor as we love ourselves, this is the entire torah explained. Which means the allegories make look Jews look like Malchut in this world but truthfully they are revealing the path to the Zohar which is the light that leads us to spiritual awakening. Jews of this world have a special mission and dynamic in this hub of history because it is the giving, its the first part of spiritual development that leads to correction, give to gain satisfaction for the sake of giving, of the torah to all the nations.

Who can judge standards?

I am not sure the world does hold them to a higher standard. I am hoping to learn why some people think they are so different in this class.
