"there is no such thing as race, unless you're a racist"
That is true, but Antisemitism Islamophobia and racism as forms of prejudice are inseparable
In my opinion one of the great missed opportunities of history came about because of the bad treatment of the Jews as being 'different' somehow from bad treatment of other cultures, races and religions - and humanity in general.
The Holocaust was a perfect example of extreme prejudice, but that hatred extended to Gypsies, Trades Unionists, Communists
The defeat of Nazism was a perfect opportunity to outlaw all forms of prejudice
We have been debating a definition of Antisemitism and ignoring the fact that it is only a part of hatred and prejudice
Why?
