If I’m not mistaken, some of the original reasoning behind targeting the Jews in particular is because the “Aryan” idealogues thought that the Jewish race was the only real competition.
I always figured it was a sort of stand-in for hating muslims, since Europe didn’t have a lot of muslims at that point (The whole anti-semitism what with most semites being muslim) but the ottomans are a big cultural memory
Well I’m sure they didn’t like muslims but hating Jews in Europe is literally as old as Judaism lol. I think they borrowed heavily from the Thule society and weirdo German conspiracy theories, as well as the “stabbed in the back” myth. Very interesting stuff if you don’t mind actively making yourself dumber lol.
It’s the same thing happening today with the focus shifted to Muslims, trans people, and immigrants in general. There always needs to be an out group.
They learned that Jews were Aryans
