Would you protect the rights of A bigot?
The Jews of Europe were characterized in the following ways by the Fascists:
1. Bigoted because of “Jewish Chosenness” 2. A foreign element from a different continent 3. An over privileged foreign minority 4. Destructive of indigenous ethnic culture.
Non-Indigenous of America are characterized in the following ways:
1. Bigoted because of “White Supremacism” and other “Supremacisms” 2. A foreign element from a different continent 3. An over privileged foreign minority (LatinX are the majority in the Americas and they are considered Indigenous by many) 4. Disrespectful of other cultures.
The rights of the Jewish people should have been respected during WWII and the rights of the Non-Indigenous Americans should be respected today. Would you protect the human rights of a Jewish person even if they believed in “Jewish Chosenness” and came from a powerful family and promoted Modernism over traditional ethnic culture?
I believe that “Jewish Chosenness” does not have to imply bigotry. It can simply mean that AT LEAST the descendants of Jacob would be a blessing to all families. This does not imply that ONLY the descendants of Jacob would be a blessing to all families. I also believe that most of the victims of the Holocaust had done nothing illegal and that they should have been given fair trials.
Social Justice was an antisemitic American Roman Catholic periodical published by Father Charles Coughlin during the late 1930s and early 1940s.[1]
Social Justice was controversial for printing antisemitic polemics such as The Protocols of the Elders of Zion. Coughlin claimed that Marxist atheism in Europe was a Jewish plot against America. The December 5, 1938, issue of Social Justice included an article by Coughlin which reportedly closely resembled a speech made by Joseph Goebbels on September 13, 1935, attacking Jews and Communists, with some sections being copied verbatim by Coughlin from an English translation of the Goebbels speech. Coughlin, however, stated, “Nothing can be gained by linking ourselves with any organization which is engaged in agitating racial animosities or propagating racial hatreds.”[2] Furthermore, in an interview with Eddie Doherty, Coughlin stated: “My purpose is to help eradicate from the world its mania for persecution, to help align all good men.
