Antisemitism is the world's oldest hatred against Jews, dating back thousands of years, yet many don't know how it functions or what it means.
A pure dictionary definition is:"hostility to or prejudice against Jewish people." But the story is a lot more complicated than that.
While Auerbach says antisemitism functions like other forms of hatred in that it separates Jews as other, it is different in that Jews are presented as a nefarious group that seeks to control the economy, religion, health care systems, the media, and basically, the world. Despite making up just 2% of the U.S. population and 0.2% of the world population, antisemites believe that Jews have an influence over politics, economics, capitalism, communism, the COVID-19 pandemic, and any number of other conflicts and current events.
