There is usually in society a group of people who feel the need to hate. Be they Nationalists like the BNP or people of the hard left or hard right. In decent and well ordered societies these groups are frowned upon and challenged by all right minded people. When decency and order breakdown these people get the chance to spout their bile and rabble rouse. When they actually get control like Hitler or Stalin did then things can take a turn for the worse for everyone.

I'm a moon landing doubter. I get angry to be associated with the holocaust.

Which was part of my point before, Billy; I have been known to pull your leg over the moon landings and other conspiracies, but I certainly wouldn't acknowledge you if you were a holocaust denier. These are not the same things at all. TBH, I really do not believe most holocaust deniers actually think the holocaust didn't happen. I think most of them are consciously and deliberately lying when they say it didn't happen. The physical evidence of the holocaust is overwhelming.

Im sure it wasn't intended as a personal dig at anyone, Billy, you or anyone else. Sometimes we express ourselves in generalisations without reflecting that specific people might take offence. I'm sure this has happened to you as well (it has to me).

I have heard of the pamphflets of Georg von Schönerer, and he was a historically proven anti-Semite. The time table fits too in Vienna, because Hitler had been a young man (about ~20) at this time. But at his first political speeches after WWI in Munich this anti-Semitism was not on topic, this came later. I've never heard of Karl Lueger, but I will catch upon this later. EDIT: As the mayor of Vienna I do know him at this time, but I wasn't aware of his name. It is said, he was a good speaker and very popular as a mayor; I think we can take this as an evidence of his influence on Hitler here. I think you aren't correct with the list of countries, remember the Dreyfus affair for example. Of other countries (England & Ireland or Italy) I'm having no info in this special point. But I think Spain we could add to the list, but I'm not sure at 100%. A strong argument in 19th century are the 'bad capitalists' picture, what is occurring repeatedly in the Nazi - Ideology later too. That's owed in the luck missing rules in legislation in general and missing rules in the social legislation in special at this time. Leading into the Black Thursday 1927, hyperinflation from 1919 to 1923. Not to mention, that it applicable to the majority of non-Jews capitalists too. Why this has been laid on the doorstep of the Jews mainly, I can't understand logically. It must have been quite visible for ordinary people, that - based on missing rules - it was hitting the ordinary Jews in the same way. (BTW: We are having the same kind of problems to since 2007, there are a lot of missing rules of the legislation at the Banking sector too, and nothing to a very little is solved so far.) I agree with you, in mid age and later the the anti-Semitism had a religious and prejudice character ("they are different from us Christians" or "they killed/betray Jesus") which could locally inflame too, and later it got into a racism. .

We can watch this effect between the -so called fans of- different football clubs on a lower level, for example. (Saying this as a person, having absolutely no clue (and interests) in football). It's absolutely strange to me, if I'm watching those issues at reports. :head-shaking: They don't know each other, but beaten up themselves, because they are "different". Do we have a kind of the same effect here ?

The turn in Sophie and Hans Scholl's life happened in spring 1941. The reason for the ideological reorientation of the siblings were the works of St. Augustine of Hippo, a latin church father of the ancient world and an important philosopher of the epochal threshold between antiquity and the middle ages. |

Infact, the main atrocities committed by the left were not usually due to hate but a warped idea of attaining equality and a fairer society no matter the cost along the way. And you had opportunists and reactionaries who didn't believe in the ideals in the first place. Quote:
Other anti-Semitic and racist groups (the NAZIs were against others about as much, such as Slavs and Romani) that fed into the NAZI party were the occult groups such as Ariosphy and and the Völkisch nationalism of Johann Gottlieb Fichte, who spoke of purifying Germany. Völkisch Nationalists viewed Romani, Jews etc as too universal, which they hated. Fichte himself declared the Jews a state within a state and suggested the creation of a Jewish state in Palestine (popular with anti-Semites who didn't want to outright kill Jews... actually the idea was initially supported by NAZIs like Eichmann, who even made deals with Zionist groups) rather than having them in Germany. All these different influences boiled over and created one of the most debased and vile forms of the disorder known as racism.
