    This adoption of anti-Semitism by Hindu nationalists supports the idea that anti-Semitism (or some homologue) is a necessary component for right-wing nationalism in general.https://twitter.com/AudreyTruschke/status/1062351383893102593 …

    A key appeal of Nazism for early Hindu nationalists was anti-Semitism, which they saw as a useful model for how to demonise India’s Muslim minority. https://scroll.in/article/901309/how-indias-hindu-nationalists-are-increasingly-using-anti-semitism-as-a-ready-tool-of-hate … #Hindutva #Antisemitism #Muslim

        Wait hold, didn't Italian fascism not become overtly anti-Semitic until much later in their regime? I remember it pissing off a huge part of their industrial base, who defected to the resistance as a result

        The roots were still there, they just didn't pass laws to the same extent; fascism even in Italy basically came into being in large part through french anti-dreyfusards

        this is absolutely correct but I worry that having to call it antisemitism actually misleads people when it's largely relevant in relation to nationalism rather than specific ethnic politics

        Hannah Arendt's Origins of Totalitarianism supports a similar conclusion: Race/blood as an international doctrine similarly needs an international foe.

        Hey if you can get your followers to hate one group of citizens it's easy to add groups to the list because the barriers are no longer there

        Replying to @HeerJeet @joshtpm

        I think the logic of *white supremacy* requires a group of saboteurs within the white majority to explain away how the supposedly-superior race is frustrated & victimized by its inferiors. But that's a specific, special role Jews play in right-wing nutbaggery.

        This Indian anti-Semitism seems more like contamination - a contradictory impulse borne of the influence that actual straight up Nazism has had in India, along w/ countless other countries, in spread hateful anti-Jewish bigotry.
