  • I think it’s gotta do with the renaissance in Jewish social mobility and acceptance into secular society in 19th century western capitalist society

    To summarize, the framework of antisemitism is essentially based around the reactionary preconception that their social mobility would lead to the ‘subversion’ of the imperialist and capitalist West, by these historically disenfranchised peoples, with not only their newfound ‘surreptitiously acquired power’ but its foreign values that justify it.

    Consequently, this preconception acts as not just a justification of discrimination, but a violent movement against them. And this logic is then extrapolated to other peoples of the world, especially and purposefully revolutionaries, who were challenging those same ruling classes.

    The logic of antisemitism, far from being banished with the Nazis, became completely naturalized in the West. From Lord of the Rings to The Dark Knight Rises we hear the same story again and again and again: {according to the ruling classes,} swarthy hordes are surreptitiously manipulated behind-the-scenes by crooked wizards and deceptive illusionists — often hiding in plain sight, in our midst! — and lay siege to everything that is balanced and well-rounded and pure and good and holy and white and which by rights should be eternal. The manipulators do so for no discernible reason other than greed and ressentiment.

    The tragic cycle begins to appear eternal: innocent, well-meaning, hard-working folks are, time and again, viciously tricked by the scapegoating of a new rogue in the gallery — Indigenous, Black, Spanish, Jewish, Soviet, Vietnamese, Cuban, Serbian, Muslim, Libyan, Syrian, Korean, Venezuelan, Russian, Chinese.

  • It wasn’t even so much that the South Korean workers were detained — it was how they were detained. ICE officials released videos of the workers with shackles on their arms and feet. “Is this any way for the US to treat an ally?” asked the left-leaning South Korean news outlet Hankyoreh, while the country’s most prominent conservative outlet, Chosun Ilbo, labeled the raid a “merciless arrest operation … that cannot happen between allies.”

    Ok, the more I think about this - the more the fact that Colombia merely protested to the same thing that South Korea only complained about looks more ridiculous by the day…

    Ah well - more labor for the homeland - less for the Braindraining SStates of Amerikkka
