i'm curious to why this thread was even started. jews are discriminated against by some ppl just like any other ethnicity or religious group is discriminated against.i don't see why a thread was created specifically on the topic of why ppl hate jews.
that said i think the jew-hate has to do with the jesus but ppl didn't like jews even before then cuz they thought they were right & stuck to their beliefs & stuck together. even when the jews went to europe they preserved their customs and lived in their own communities & married within the faith (thus preserving the jewish ethnicity), and humans have always been wary of anything different or non-conforming. plus jews were often well-off, fueling jealousy (as they probably still do).
and a new reason to hate jews: ISRAEL. so basically the us & uk didn't want any jews after ww2, so they let them steal land that had been occupied for thousands of years by some of its aboriginal ppl, expel the unwanted inhabitants, & invite all jews to the neighborhood.
^thats personally the only reason i could possibly stomach for someone hating jews, but only if like 1/2 their family died due to the israeli military & they'd never met a civilian jew or something. u often have to excuse ignorance.
also, plz don't toss around the word ANTI-SEMETIC, because semites arn't just jews, arabs are also semites. so none of the countries in the middle east can be called anti-semetic, although some can be called crazy haters.
thats kinda all for now.
