I see that inclination manifesting from a few factors, one of which being a deep-seated resentment towards the host culture and its people. Creative mockery is a way to channel that resentment and inflict damage with low risk of severe backlash. This isn't unique to Jews, though they do seem drawn to it. Self-hating whites and others do this too, while aligning themselves into progressive counter-cultural movements that attempt to tear down the traditions that they internally feel contributed to their unhappiness. They find meaning in destruction of a society that supposedly failed them, and honestly? Maybe it has, but they frequently rage at the wrong causes with all of their ugly contempt, and in a metaphorical sense (to me, anyway), choose degeneracy and death over love and life. Some grow out of it, others never will.

As a side note, Ashkenazi are more likely to be schizotypal and manic depressive. Mental illness in general is correlated with creative output, making associations that normative minds wouldn't. For better and worse. Call it a spiritual illness or a genetic defect, it's there. On top of higher general IQ as a risk factor for mood disorders, ADHD, and autism. Stack it all up into a messy pile of abnormal behavioral filth.

Somehow still these self-hating gentiles can create works that are objectively aesthetic yet even a Jew that's ideologically decent would only create filth. The architecture in Israel gives me fucking vertigo sometimes

I probably have all of these combined yet I still like symmetry and harmony not asymmetry and dissonance, it's gotta be something deeper

I'm unfamiliar with Israeli architecture and find most modern buildings to be a disappointing medley of hideous experimentation or generic monuments to cheap, rootless consumerism. There is no doubt that Europe produced the finest in times past, at least to my tastes. As far as something deeper, I don't know. Some of the most musically harmonious and emotionally evocative creations are directly attributable to Jews, in addition to endless garbage like the linked example. As one would expect of troubled artists and a troubled people. What I won't argue against is that they're partially responsible, especially in positions of power, for harming traditions that are beautiful and worth preserving, as is liberalism.
