Ferengi? Anti-Semitic!?

That never occurred to me. And I have never heard it before. Until I just read it above!

No. I always took them to be examples (as explained by, I think, Data, in the first episode in which they appeared--TNG) as "The worst examples of what might be called the 'Yankee Trader mentality.'" That's not an exact quote, but close. In short, the Capitalist mentality run amok.

I never made that anti-Semitism connection. I have never before heard that idea advanced by anyone. And Gene Roddenberry was not one to have allowed anything like that to have been implied in the show.
