Vaush proving what we all already knew: That all pedophiles are nazis and all nazis are pedophiles.
Yeah my English teacher even thought us that in school before reading The Merchant of Venice and other works from Shakespeare, as some of the lenders in them are depicted as stereotypically Jewish.
Funny clown hammer man does not even have a middle school understanding of what he's talking about.
Same, like it was AP English but we had to write a short essay about antibsemitism of the time. I also wrote a banger of an essay about how our interpretation of Othello regarding race is modern as fuck and the relationship between the development of modern racism and capitalism. I was even kinda lib at the time, I'm proud of past me for that one.
Are your debts coming due? Purge the Jews! No Jews, no debt!
Are your tax revenues not meeting your expenditures? Purge the Jews and take their stuff!
Are the citizens becoming unruly? Blame all social ills on the Jews and purge them!
This happened routinely across Europe for centuries. The times when Christian officials went out of their way to protect the Jews are notable because they were so rare.
It's also notable that after the wholesale slaughter or flight of most of the Jews in mainland Europe the Europeans have continued to behave this way towards Roma people.
"If the Roma have it so bad then why do they own palaces" - Average eastern European Person
The mixture of absolute poverty + few rich people who live like the ethnic majority's bourgeoise = absolutely virulent and vile racism that attributes bourgeois class characteristics to an entire ethnicity, distracting from the actual class conflicts.
Which is kind of the why we are socialists and internationalists instead of doing "red-brown alliance" stuff like galaxy brains like Caleb Maupin would like
There's this spanish "historical" drama series about the lives of the Catholic Monarchs during and post-Reconquista where they depict the expulsion of Jewish people from Spain after centuries of (relative) tolerance from the Muslim Moors.
They depict Queen Isabella as being "forced" to expulse all the Jews and feeling really bad about it and tearfully saying goodbye to her Jewish physician who saved her son's life. And there's absolutely eyerolling scene of her tearfully contemplating the expulsion of Jews as a failure on her part but one that was unavoidable.
Meanwhile IRL, Queen Isabella was probably the most enthusiastic antisemite who didn't give a fuck about about the consequences to herself or the country even when that expelled Jewish diaspora became pirates down the line (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_pirates#Iberian_Jewish_pirates) as a consequence of being forced out of their homeland while having their wealth confiscated, and even when the expulsions meant that several professions suddenly had zero people to work on (silk making for example in Spain completely disappeared with the expulsion of Jews and Muslim Moriscos leading to Italy becoming the top producer of silk in Spain) it didn't matter to her because of how antisemitic she was.
It was the TV-equivalent of Americans painting the Native American Genocide as nothing more than misunderstandings and tragic (but necessary) events towards aMeRiCaN gReAtNeSs

Doesn't France have some ruthlessly oppressed linguistic minority that, like, pronounces L slightly differently or something?
