“Jews represent capitalism.”
Actually, Jews are far more widely known as embracing socialism. Ever hear of kibbutzim?
European socialism was pretty much created by Jews, and most certainly was applauded by Jews.
It’s one of the reasons Jews tend to flock to the Dims.
Never made any sense to me, given their respect for education.
historically, Jews were stereotyped as merchants, quintessential capitalists.
True enough that there is a strong socialist streak among Jews both in Europe and here. However, the more orthodox (Hassidim) are more often conservative, and in Europe they still maintain their merchant origins (Antwerp).
BTW, there are very few kibbutzim remaining in Israel compared with the past.
