... The social emancipation of the Jew is the emancipation of society from Judaism ...

Precisely. Marx was arguing for assimilation, the assimilation of the Jews into civil society. The price of admission, however, was to be their Jewishness. But Marx demanded the same price of everyone. We were all to be relieved of our illusions, those illusions we call religion.

To in any way equate or relate this to the NAZI program is simply ridiculous.

To in any way equate or relate this to the NAZI program is simply ridiculous.

But Marx refers very specifically to "the emancipation of society from Judaism."

To Marx, Jews are not just misguided victims like the Christians, but Judaism is an EVIL, CAPITALIST religion which must be wiped out.
