Explaining antisemitism.

Click here if you are unable to view this video.

Antisemitism is trending again. As soon as the news broke of the horrors in Israel on October 7th, students at America's top universities and beyond were rushing to defend the perpetrators, and it's only gotten worse.

Around the world, antisemites are harassing students, staging protests, vandalizing Jewish homes and businesses, destroying posters of the Israeli hostages, and crafting insane justifications that blame the Jewish victims.

For many Jews, who are often on the front lines fighting for social change, they feel abandoned. It's like they don't count.

But if you look at Jewish history, you shouldn't be surprised.

From Aish, this is JEW KNOW IT, and today we’re talking about antisemitism.

WHAT DOES ANTISEMITISM MEAN?

First, a little history -

Back in the late-1800s, German race-theorist, Wilhelm Marr, coined the term “antisemitism.”

Marr believed that Jews were diluting “pure” German culture, and made up the term as a way of stressing the Jews’ racial inferiority. Though other peoples also claim to be “semites,” the term antisemitism refers solely to Jews.

The term stuck and today “antisemitism” is used universally to describe hatred and bigotry against Jews.

THE HISTORY OF ANTISEMITISM

Antisemitism is unlike any other form of hatred throughout history. Let’s break down why -
Universality: No matter where the Jews have been - Europe, the Middle East, North Africa - they’ve always faced hatred.
Longevity: Antisemitism has been around for thousands of years, but it really kicked into high gear with the rise of Christianity and Islam.
Intensity: Discrimination against Jews often turns real ugly, real fast. It can escalate into false accusations, mass expulsions, violent mobs, murders, and even genocide.
Irrationality: Everything and its opposite is a reason for hating Jews –

In communist countries, Jews were hated for being capitalists, but in capitalist nations, they were accused of being communists.

When Jews lived in ghettos, they were called "clannish," but when they assimilated, they were accused of infiltrating and corrupting the dominant culture.

Jews are “too white” to count as an oppressed minority, but not “white enough” to mollify white supremacists.

Basically, no matter what, someone somewhere comes up with a reason to hate Jews.

WHY IS THERE ANTISEMITISM?

Antisemitism is old and many thoughtful people have tried to explain it. The most common reasons are:

Jews are rich, powerful and influential given their numbers. Jews claim to be the Chosen People. Jews killed Jesus. Jews are outsiders and different from everyone else. Jews are an inferior race. Jews are easy scapegoats.

And while some of these reasons may describe a particular antisemite’s motivation, none of them really explain antisemitism, especially since antisemitism happens at times and in places where these reasons don’t make a whole lot of sense.

For example, Jews living in Russia’s Pale of Settlement were poor and weak, but they were still hated.

The Jews of 19th century Germany renounced their status as a “chosen people,” but they were still hated.

Even when the Jews assimilated and did their best to shed their Jewish identity - you guessed it - they were still hated.

So, no matter where you look in history, antisemitism is always there, and with the explanations always changing and evolving, it’s hard not to think they’re really just… excuses.

But why do people really hate Jews?

According to Jewish tradition, Jew-hatred started with Mount Sinai, which marks the birth of the Jewish people.

The secret is in the name, "Sinai," (pronounced "SEENAI”) which sounds similar to "sinah," (pronounced "SEENAH") the Hebrew word for hatred.

You see, at Mount Sinai the Jewish people received the Ten Commandments, and embraced the tenets of ethical monotheism: concepts like the dignity of the individual, the brotherhood of man, equality and justice, and many other ideals that nowadays most people hold to be “self-evident.”

Antisemitism is a rejection of those values, or as Hitler / one infamous antisemite stated explicitly, “Conscience is a Jewish invention. It is a blemish like circumcision.”

Antisemitism is attacking the messenger who brought the values and morals of the Ten Commandments into the world.

Yet those same values are also the solution to antisemitism. Jewish ideas still need to be embraced and taught.

That’s also the unique mission of the Jewish people: to know those values and to teach them.

So in a surprising way, Judaism teaches that antisemitism is a reminder to the Jews of what they stand for - morality and conscience. The answer to antisemitism is to embrace and live with these values as best we can.

I found it interesting and informative. I've never hated the Jew citizen's. they haven't tried to change Christians, that I know of. Unlike Muslims, that CULT is nothing pure hate, burning churches , and killing Christians. Muslims are a real threat to America. Something that happened thousands of years ago, or WW2, is more in the Europe area? I've never been more afraid of any faith or CULT, than Muslims, the Muslims through out America, I don't think have taken into the reality of what they are believing . Thus highschool kids, etc..

"What did 6 millions Jews do wrong in Holocaust?
Did they "occupy" their own land? Did they "apartheid" someone?
What were they guilty of, then?
You know the answer. Nothing. They were guilty because they existed.

So why are you (some Jews/Israelis) trying to make antisemites "change their mind"?
"Mind" has nothing to do with it. The deep hatred that they feel is a feeling, there is nothing rational about it and never was.

Antisemitism is the worst, the most evil kind of hatred. It is much worse than other forms of hatred, like racism or homophobia.
Because there was no prejudice in the world that made people m*rder 6 million people just because of who they are."

And they set absolutely unrealistic expectations for us. Rules and standards that they themselves would absolutely never even think to follow.

The only comparison I can think of is narcissistic abuse, I write about it all the time.

"Why do people hate Jews? Here's why:

Antisemitism, in all its mutations, is a cultural mass psychosis endemic to the Christian, post Christian, and Islamic societies, stemming from xenophobia, fanaticism, envy, and scapegoating. Jewish behavior does not influence it or matter to antisemitises in the slightest. Some nations are virulently antisemitic without even any Jews being present."

Hello, I stumbled upon this site today while searching for some answers about the topic of antisemitism. I am an American and very disturbed about the resurgence (?) of hate in this country. I just don't get it. I thought we were evolving as humans but if I look at the news it seems to be going backwards. I'm sure this is old news but it never ceases to shock me. I just had a chat with Rabbi Keyak and thought I might learn more here. For starters, I have been following a guy named Simcha Jacobovici on youtube for a long time. It's refreshing for me to hear his clear headed take on history, without bias or propaganda. He has cleared up some things for me. Is anyone here familiar with his work? What do you think?

"A Red Flag We Cannot Ignore

I’m going through major upheaval in my life right now, and it’s on account of antisemitism. I won’t say more than that—because it’s dangerous—but I will say this: Jews are already making provisions, even here in the United States. That, in itself, should alarm everyone.

A friend recently asked my advice: should she change her last name? Not because of divorce or reinvention—but because her Jewish identity suddenly feels like a liability. Think about that. In 2025, in America, Jews are wondering whether it’s safer to erase their names. If that doesn’t set off alarms, what will?"

"History teaches us that Jews rarely uproot themselves or shed their names without cause. When our grandparents and great-grandparents left Europe—or tried to—it was because the signs had already been flashing, even as the world dismissed them. What we are seeing now is a repeat of that pattern. The blood libel lies, the scapegoating, the silence of neighbors who look away—these are not abstractions. They are precursors.

It is not hysteria to notice the parallels. It is survival. When Jews start making provisions in America—the place that promised safety after the Shoah—that is not just a Jewish concern. It is a warning to the entire society. Because antisemitism never stops with Jews. It spreads, it poisons, it corrodes everything it touches."

My jewish grandmother did not tell me we had Jewish lineage until six months before she died at age 99 years old. Her family moved to America from Germany in the mid 1880’s. They changed the spelling of their last name and never practiced Judaism in America. My great grandparents stayed isolated on their farm in Missouri.
The first thing that came to mind when I was told our background is how shameful it was they had to hide the truth so their family wouldn’t be persecuted in the land of the free. America is now just as antisemitic as the Germany they left behind so many years ago. Some things never change.

I remember as a Freshman in
High School in 1994 , at age 14 , living in New York City, I was thinking to myself about the History of
Anti-Semitism and the Irish
How Unjust And Unfair it is
How the Jewish people have always Suffered All Throughout Human History, Suffered and been Hated More than All Other Groups of People
COMBINED , I thought to myself
"How come the Irish have Never
Suffered ? Nobody Hates the Irish
Nobody Hates the Irish , Nobody Hates the Irish , the Irish have Never Suffered or been Hated, while Everyone Hates the Jews"

I don't recall in my History Research , of the Irish Helping Israel ? Can you elaborate for me , or was it simply in the VOTE for the Jewish State?

Irish never suffered? or were never hated? You don't know history sir. And I have never known personally any Christians who are antisemitic. What hatred you have towards these groups! It is pathetic!

zeldaydee posted about Jew-Hatred in America saying

“There’s no denying that antisemitism is raging in this country. And yet there hasn’t been a modicum of effort outside of the Jewish community to fight this hate. No loud voices, no signs, no campaigns, no protests. Not from celebrities, not from politicians, not from retailers, not from social justice movements. No one. This would be unheard of if the hate was directed at any other group. Antisemitism is so insidious, that fighting this hate is taboo”

Even some decent Non-Jews who are Against Anti-Semitism are Afraid to Publicly Speak Out in Support of Jews and Israel
They don’t want to be called
“Jew-Lovers” or lose friends, be stigmatized and ostracized for
Supporting Jews and Israel , or they might fear for their Safety if they Speak Up in Support of Israel and the Jewish people

Some decent Non-Jews and
Christian Supporters of Israel have said that the Jewish people & Israel deserve to be Treated with the same Exact Dignity, Love and Respect as Anyone and Everyone Else
No ifs , ands or buts about it

No More Anti-Semitic Hypocrisy and Double Standards Surrounding “Free Speech” and the
“First Amendment”
No More Unconstitutional Discriminatory Unequal application of the Laws

Our Civil Rights and Human Rights Matter !!!

"The Cycle of Antisemitism
1. With each new generation and cultural zeitgeist, new antisemitic lies are born.

2. Jews attempt to combat said lies, but are distrusted by the broader populace (because “everyone knows Jews are liars, cheaters, swindlers” or some other variation thereof) and subsequently drowned out.

3. The new lies are promoted aggressively, allowed to spread unchecked until they reach a saturation point, with countervailing information systematically suppressed/discredited.

4. Gentile society becomes convinced that we really are as bad as past antisemites have said we are, and begin to question why these figures are so vilified. (((Why))) indeed."

"5. Jews are socially ostracized, then boycotted, then murdered en masse. We’re currently in the “ostracism and boycotting” stage, and are just now beginning to transition into the “murder” stage.

6. When the smoke clears and another 6 million or so innocent Jews have perished, the rest of the world will sober up and realize just how badly it f--ked up.

7. The rest of the world will beg our forgiveness, promise us “never again”.

8. Rinse and repeat "

Anti-Semitism is not natural. Antisemitism is a falsely created scapegoat to hide the flaws of an economic system and process the booms and bust and people losing through no fault of their own...someone has to be to blame, this is the role that antisemitism plays today and what many Jews enjoy being part of.

"All these idiot "celebrities" who haven't said a word about the choking to death of the baby Bibas brothers. Can you imagine if a Jew choked to death with bare hands an infant!! Jews everywhere would be assaulted literally and/or figuratively. These "celebrities" are advocating for Islamic terrorist glorifier "students" to be "free" than they are for the hostages! They couldn't get enough of protesting against racism and BLM but say nothing of the rabid antisemitism sweeping America and Europe. Freaking pretentious hypocrites. They justify the hate Jews are receiving because if you support the Palestinians, Jews everywhere are fair game."

" I guess that gives everyone a free pass to harass black people, Chinese people, etc, if they have something against Africa, China, etc. Except…naaa…the social justice warriors would wrap their social justice warrior arms around them and march against the hate. And the self-righteous attitudes! I don’t know if they realize moderate Muslims who are pro Israel, advocating FOR Israel, are shaking their heads in disbelief and disgust at the celebrities advocating against Israel. The disgust and disbelief they have for the ceasefire demands and the student protests. They WARN that Islamic Extremist ideology indoctrination is happening in the West…but “celebrities” and 18-year-olds think THEY are the “experts.” It’s pathetic…”

On the ABC TGIF sitcom
"Boy Meets World" which began in
September 1993 there was a character named
Joey "The Rat" Epstein , which sounds Anti-Semitic

The Wikipedia entry about this character on the show says
"During the series' second and third seasons, Joey "The Rat" Epstein (Blake Sennett) is Harley Keiner's other "lackey", also antagonizing both Shawn and Cory. Joey's exact purpose in the bully entourage is never really explained. Sennett left the show in season three to pursue music with his band Rilo Kiley, but he made one last appearance in season five's graduation episode."

Plus many Self-Hating Jews and Half-Jewish persons ask themselves which is Worse , if it was their Destiny and Fate to be Born Jewish OR if it was just
Random Chance and "rotten luck" that they were born Jewish
Jewish Self-Hatred and Internalized Anti-Semitism is sadly getting worse and worse Every Single Day
Often it's Impossible to hide Jewishness
Many Jews Are Worried that
American Jews will Suffer a Holocaust , that a
Holocaust against American Jews is sadly coming

In New York City Public
Junior High & High Schools with
Virtually No Jewish Students , the Very Few Jewish or Half-Jewish Students who are Probably hiding being Jewish , trying to hide their Jewishness. They see that
Virtually All the Other Students are Fully Gentile ,
Fully Non-Jewish and the few
Jewish or Half-Jewish Students
Feel Deeply Jealous and Envious of the Other Students who were born Fully Gentile , they feel deeply Jealous , Envious , Different and Inferior to the Other Students who were born Fully Gentile

We can all look up the famous doll experiments by
Kenneth and Mamie Clark , about the Black girls who preferred to play with the White dolls and Not the Black dolls
Many Jews and Half-Jewish persons wish that they were born Fully Gentile , Fully Non-Jewish
