Was the Bolshevik revolution; Red Guards, Boycotts, and Protests the cause of radical Anti-Semitism in Munich, Germany?

Question

Why did Jews boycott and protest in response to Hitler becoming Chancellor? Weren't Jews Foreigners in Germany? Didn't some Jews come to Germany to escape the rise of anti Semitism in Russia? What made them think they could have Boycotts and Protests etc. and not face repercussions like anti Semitism and violence? It was generally a foreign country to them, right?

If none of the above things I mentioned were not the causes of anti Semitism in Germany, what then was?

I don't mean to disrespect, just trying to simply find out what the origin of Anti Semitism was specifically in Germany #1, and #2 Why were Jews Boycotting Germany and having Protests as Hitler was becoming Chancellor? It is to my understanding that he hadn't even done anything yet?

And please cite your sources. I would like if possible honest non revisionist Historians please! Thank you! 5 stars straight up for best answer.

Answer 1

Nope- the Jews were NOT foreigners in Germany at all! In reality some of the Jewish communities in Germany dated back 2000 years. The term Ashkenazi originated from the massive Jewish migration after the Bar Kochba revolt in 150CE to the region then known as Ashkenaz and which is part of Southern Germany today. Some of the Jewish communities in the region were older than the non-Jewish communities!



And the boycotts were in RESPONSE to the anti-Semitism, NOT the cause! Jews protested because of the policies of Hitler, because of his blatant anti-Semitism. Hitler made no secret of what he believed, that he would be attacking Jews. He stated it frequently in his speeches, he stated it in Mein Kampf- the real question you should be asking is: If only the Nazis supported anti-Semitism how come none of those who claim they did not support Hitler's anti-Semitism protest against the measures he was busy instituting against Jews? The sad answer is that at the time the vast majority supported Hitler's actions against the Jews, it was only after he was defeated that suddenly they all started claiming they had not supported his anti-Jewish policies!



The notion of an impure Jewish "race" and the fact that Jews had to be removed from society started in the 19th century in Germany, long before the communist movement was of any consequence. The communist movement became an useful scapegoat but in reality had nothing to do with the growth of anti-Semtism. In his book "Hitler's willing executioners" Daniel Goldenhagen has a chapter on the exploration of the development of anti-Semitism in Germany to the point where genocide of the Jews seemed a reasonable and accepted way forward.

"Was the Bolshevik revolution; Red Guards, Boycotts, and Protests the cause of radical Anti-Semitism in Munich, Germany?"



Yes. Not just in Germany though.

A few European Nations had Antisemitism policy or leanings, like Germany with the same mindset. Britain had Mosley's political party, the USA had the German-Amerika Bund political parties equally with an Antisemitism as policy... Jews in essence being Communists and thus everything wrong with the world.



" just trying to simply find out what the origin of Anti Semitism was specifically in Germany "



"Jewish Bolshevism also known as Judeo-Bolshevism is a conspiracy theory that the Jews were at the origin of the Russian Revolution and held dominant power among Bolsheviks. Similarly the Jewish Communism theory implies that Jews have been dominating the Communist movements in the world.

The label "Judeo-Bolshevism" was used in Nazi Germany to equate Jews with communists, implying that the communist movement served Jewish interests and/or that all Jews were communists."

“The Nazis’ hatred of the Jews, and, in particular, Hitler’s own hatred, were directly bound up with fascism’s deadly attack on the socialist workers movement. The anti-fascist author Konrad Heiden described this very well. He wrote in his biography of Hitler that when the future dictator discovered that many Jews played prominent roles in the labor movement, ‘The great light dawned upon him. Suddenly the “Jewish question” became clear.... The labor movement did not repel him because it was led by Jews, the Jews repelled him because they led the labor movement.’ One can only agree with Heiden’s conclusion that ‘it was not Rothschild, the capitalist, but Karl Marx, the socialist, who kindled Adolf Hitler’s anti-Semitism.’”
