Hating a minority is a theme showing up in politics, every time a society had a downturn.
Jews were scapegoats, they were generally seen as greedy and thrifty. So when the economy went to shit, the workers blamed an ethnic group associated with being successful business people.
The hate for Muslims went up a lot in the aftermath of the 08 crisis. Although the reasons for problems tends to be greed among the elites, they also tend to control the narrative. And will throw a minority under the bus to save themselves
Or catholic priests…
The Church got away with a lot in WWII, the President of Slovakia was a priest and that country was the one that killed most jews proportionally.
Lets, not forget either that the biggest monstrosity of WWII was the religious cleansing, who had a beef with the Jews?
I rest my case.
I don’t understand the whole hating the Jews thing.
Had they not killed Jesus, his story would be worthless. They made him a martyr. They’re responsible for making Christianity in the first place
Oh wait now I understand.
