re: Is Tucker Carlson an anti-semite?

Just asking questions. I've never understood it.

It's like the Irish being hated in the early days and all the racial slurs from that time for Italians. Out of place in today's times and nonsensical.

and, Dallas...

A lot if this is overblown. "Irish need not apply" is a complete myth. But they were Catholic in a country that was heavily Protestant, poor and uneducated, drank more in a country that was moving toward teetotalism and Prohibition, more involved in organized crime.. of course for all these differences there were never any pogroms or systematic oppression

You are badly misinformed.

"Irish need not apply" (and much worse) was a VERY real thing in the mid to late 1800's.

There were Irish "Shanty Towns" in every city. And YOU are still perpetuating the false "Drunken Irish" stereotype.

Not really

He believed they were actively undermining his country. He believed Germany had WW1 won until Jewish influence in German politics pulled them out. He believed the crippling debt placed on Germany was orchestrated by Jews. He believed Jews in Germany, Russia, Britain and the US were actually all in conspiracy to bankrupt and destroy Germany. He believed Red October in Russia, and all communism, was actually a holy war by Jews against Christians (indeed, many many of the Bolsheviks were in fact Jews and they did burn churches). He believed the German Civil War that occurred in 1918 was the same plot. He believed the drastic poverty and drastic moral decline that occurred under the Weimar Republic was directly intended by Jews.

He wasn't entirely wrong.
