Why anti-semitism is racism

Whoopi Goldberg sparked a deserved backlash when she said the Holocaust was not about race or racism, but was just about white guys vs white guys.

The video below is a great explanation of why anti-semitism is about race, not religion. Some key points:

• Nazis didn’t care at all about if Jews were observant, it was purely about bloodline. Atheist Jews were killed as much as devout Jews.
• The Nuremberg laws were racial purity laws
• Jews are seen as “white” or “non-white” depending on the politics of the observer
• For centuries, far right and others have not seen Jews as part of the white races
• More recently the far left sees Jews as “super white” because many Jews are successful
• The Holocaust was not about two white groups fighting. It was about one race being marked out for destruction using a military industrial regime.
