The message is that we never dealt with our antisemitism as a nation after World War 2. We assumed the horrors of the death camps had killed it. They did not. And it has continued to grow and spread over the decades. It is at the center of the modern American fascist movement.

Sorry but a more philosemitic gentile nation than America has never existed. If you're making this sort of argument then Israeli style right wing Zionism is really the only logical alternative.

No, I think education is the only alternative. Our schools do a garbage job of teaching history, which is a large part of why these conspiracy theories are able to spread so wide. A significant chunk of the problem is algorithmic, too.

If your opinion is that Western civilization is genocidally anti-Semitic down to its "dna" then it's logical to argue that education really has a very minimal chance of success.

I'm not sure that teaching people antisemitism is a millenia-old tradition passed on by their ancestors rather than a Hitlerian anomaly would make them *less* antisemitic
