First, the discrimination and persecution of Jews in Europe is a long-term historical issue.
The distant ancestor of the Jews was the Hebrews, a branch of the ancient Semitic people. Before BC, their ancestors once lived in the land of Arab Palestine. 1 century, after the Roman Empire captured Palestine, Jews held many large-scale uprisings against the Roman occupiers, but they were brutally suppressed by the Roman rulers until the Jewish uprising was defeated again in 135.
In this 1 century, Roman rulers slaughtered millions of Jews and finally drove the rest out of Palestinian land and scattered them all over western Europe. At that time, western Europe was completely in a backward small-scale farming and animal husbandry society, land was regarded as the most precious wealth, and commerce was an industry that people despised. After the Jews fled to western Europe, the local feudal lords discriminated against them very much, forbidding them to occupy land and allowing them to run businesses only. I don't know whether the fault of history educated them or the hardships of life and death honed them. All these have cast the characteristics of Jews, making them smart and strong.
Second, the economic success of Jews made Nazi Germany jealous of killing people for money.
As we all know, Jews are mostly excellent businessmen, good at management and quite successful in economic activities. For example, the Jewish Rothschild family in19th century had a decisive influence on the European economy. After the abolition of slavery in Britain, Rothschild in London took out 20 million pounds to compensate the loss of slave owners, and paid war reparations to Germany for France at 187 1 payment 1 billion pounds. Rothschild of Vienna helped Austria build the railway.
In France, they controlled the northern railway. This is also inevitable. Jews do not have their own country, live a wandering life and have no sense of belonging, so their trust in money is particularly prominent, so there has always been a saying that Jews are greedy for money. Shakespeare once had the image of a greedy and stingy Jewish businessman like Shylock. After the First World War, Germany, as a defeated country, had a very difficult economy and a very serious social crisis. Jews who were engaged in business and finance in Germany at that time were quite rich. For example, department stores that run large businesses are regarded as "specialties" of Jews in Germany, which causes the fear of German shopkeepers.
Out of jealousy and economic needs, Nazi Germany incited anti-Semitism, exiled Jews, slaughtered Jews and embezzled Jewish property, and gained many economic benefits.
Third, Christianity hates Jewish history too much.
Christianity is the most widely spread religion with the largest number of followers in the world. In Europe, especially in western Europe, people generally believe in Christ Jesus. Although the Old Testament, one of the Christian classics, was originally a Jewish classic, there is a close historical relationship between the two religions. However, according to Christian doctrine, Judas, one of Jesus' 12 disciples, betrayed the son of God for 30 pieces of silver coins, and the Jews crucified Jesus, which caused Christians' emotional hatred towards the Jews.
Therefore, it is difficult for Christians in Europe to accept Jews in religious feelings. This socialization of religious feelings has gradually evolved into a popular social mentality of hating Jews. Similarly, this social mentality is also a kind of cultural precipitation. Generations "inherit" and gradually combine with social economy and politics with the passage of time, making it a potential social and political force that can be used at any time.
When this potential thing is used by one (or more) political careerists in Germany and Austria, it will erupt like a volcano and become a crazy social driving force. With the intensification of the real conflict of interests, the original religious sentiment makes people's already anti-Semitic sentiment stronger, thus intensifying their hatred of Jews. Under the influence of this social atmosphere, Hitler's view of "hatred of Jews" gradually formed and quickly became the dominant force of this social sentiment. ?
Fourth, the Nazi regime believed that Jews were more inclined to revolution.
Marxism is the political theory of "International Jewish Consortium", so it links anti-Semitism with the persecution of long live the motherland and Social Democratic Party to stabilize its fascist rule. Historically, Jews participated in the revolution more actively. /kloc-in the 9th century, Russian Interior Minister Kubrat Pulev said that the revolution was almost a Jewish phenomenon. Although Jews accounted for less than 5% of the Russian population, they exceeded 50% in the Russian revolution.
Many famous proletarian revolutionaries were born in Jewish families. After World War I, Jews played an important role in revolutions in various parts of Europe, such as Trotsky, Sverdlov and Kamenev in Russia, Belakun in Hungary and Luxemburg, a Polish who lived in Germany for a long time. In Nazi-ruled Germany, Jews actively participated in revolutionary activities because of discrimination, so Hitler sensationally spread Jews to secretly subvert the world, and the fascist regime naturally linked anti-Semitism with anti-materialism. The Nazi regime naturally linked anti-Semitism with opposing capitalism. ?
Fifth, Nazi Germany's deep-rooted narrow sense of racial superiority and inferiority. Influenced by this narrow theory of racial superiority, the Nazi regime and Hitler have been advocating absurd views such as "Germans are the best people in the world, while Jews are the worst people in the world" and "Jews are not people". In Mein Kampf, Hitler said that "all events in the history of the world are just the expression of the race's self-preservation impulse". Therefore, Nazi Germany killed 500,000 Gypsies and 65,438+10,000 mentally retarded people in Germany while massacring Jews on a large scale out of racial ideas. ?
Sixth, the Nazi regime invisibly bears a grudge against talented Jews.
Jews living in all parts of Europe, compared with other nationalities, are not only rich, but also talented and of high quality. Jews have emerged a large number of outstanding talents in the fields of economy, science, art, etc. For decades, the proportion of Jews who won the Nobel Prize was much higher than that of other nationalities. Faced with such a nation, Hitler and his followers felt both hatred and timidity.
In their minds, Jews, a special social group, are a serious threat to their dream of the "Third Reich". These undoubtedly aggravated Hitler's hatred and political jealousy towards Jews. In addition, the social and political life in Germany at that time was completely in a symptom of extreme madness, which made Hitler's anti-Semitism view not only lose its proper social environment, but also quickly become crazy. ?
