@Rotron said in UK - All charges over convoy who shouted ‘rape Jewish daughters’ are dropped:
I somehow understand the hatred about Jews, but have they really done anything that harms other people?
While I'm sure that some Jewish people somewhere did something bad to someone, that's true of all peoples, I'm sure.
People hate Jewish people because they are an insular minority that, throughout history, has refused to integrate or convert to the majorities around them. This makes them an Other, and Others are easy targets for hatred.
Also, humans generally have a hard time conceiving that historical events, on a large scale, are random and irrational. Instead, magical thinking leads people to believe that events aren't actually random, but instead are happening because of some cabal or illuminati guiding the seemingly-but-not-really random events. It's the same human tendency to put order onto chaos that leads people to believe in Q-Anon, Lizard People, or that Illuminati.
