What is the real reason? I have read and researched this topic for years and I cannot nail down the main issue.
Arrogance, financial greed, religious beliefs, inferiority, power hungry, the chosen people.....etc.
History scholars and all fire away....

They ran the banking system since biblical times. Everyone has been beholden to them. That's the story, anyway.

“Because they killed our Lord” is one of the go to foundations.

If Jesus was indeed divine/God and thus omniscient, he knew before ever taking corporeal form that he was going to be killed and the circumstances of his death. In fact, that death was absolutely a necessary part of “His Plan”
It seems a bit disingenuous for one to hate a group of people, simply because their ancestors performed exactly the role that one’s deity intended them to perform.

Well the Jews killed Christ.
Europe was mostly Christian, Jewish customs are different.
People are tribal and don’t like or trust things that are different and that they don’t understand.
And it’s not just jews, it’s every where through out human history.
Tribalism.
And also not sure how true this is, but the Jews were blamed for the plague, and they’ve been a scapegoat ever since.

Jews were also captains of industry and finance while also clannish, the combination of which made them targets of blame for society’s ills, setbacks, problems.

why is it OK to make fun of, dislike or complain about every other ethnicity or religion out there but you can't do the same about jews?

Finally, because of the nature of Jewish identity, being not only religious but ethnic, Jews were easily seen as not loyal subjects of the nations they inhabited.

Seems like the Christians would be more angry with the Romans since they are the ones who actually passed the sentence. Just another example of how religion poisons everything.

Also the chosen stuff prob rubbed people the wrong way with diff customs the Jews did not respect.
quote:
Jewish persecution dates back to as early as the fifth century B.C.E. in Persia. In the Biblical account of the Purim story (the Book of Esther) “all Jews in the kingdom were targeted for annihilation because one Jewish official, Mordecai, refused to bow down to the top aide of the king, Haman. Only as a result of the intervention of the queen, a Jew, who pleaded for saving her people, were the Jews saved from mass murder” (Grobman, 1990). Unknown to non-Jewish populations, the Jewish religion does not allow any Jews to bow down to any other individual or idol other than God. This was the first account of conflict between the observance of Jewish religious practices and the local customs and expectations of the ruling class.

If we don't bless Israel, John Hagee gets big mad.

Many other Judaic religious customs caused misunderstanding and hatred from their neighbors. Strict dietary laws forbid Jews to share a meal with their neighbor. In many communities uninformed of Jewish customs, declining an offer to share a meal with a neighbor may have provoked the notion that Jews felt they were superior to their non-Jewish neighbors. Jews observed a different Sabbath day than both Christians and Muslims and unlike other religions, many Jews were unwilling to worship the gods of the ruling people.

In 135 C.E., Simon Bar Kochba initiated a revolt against Rome; however, the Jews who believed in Jesus as the Messiah refused to revolt and a number of them were killed. Outraged by this behavior, believers in Jesus as the Messiah harbored bitterness towards the Jewish people and dissented into a separate sect.

How much do you know about the history of Hollywood and the music industry? How about the media? The Frankfurt School?
Some of the answers can be found there.

Ignorance. If Republicans or people in general would take a cue on getting ahead and not ignore democrats constant push of socialism then they should take this seriously
