Impress on him the internationalist nature of the class struggle, and how until all of us are free, the capitalists will make sure none of us are. Also point out anti semitism is a dogwhistle to allow parts of the ruling classes to accumulate property while also distracting the workers from themselves.

There was no Greek ethnostate. There wasn't even Greece. I'm not even sure what "the Greek golden age" was.
