I can't believe that months later, Abby would reveal that she'd actually been French the whole time.
lmfao
Zut Alors!!
Not French!! Gasp!
Everybody gotta come out with something sometime 🤷🏽♂
What?! That is super icky.
Hi, Viewer from the Dominican Republic here. I hate to be an "actually" person, but actually the person who agreed to take the jews in, was a president called Rafael Leonidas Trujillo aka the worst dictator in the DR's history and the reason he took the jews in is popularly believed to be a part of his plan to introduce more "fair skin" into the country, since he was profoundly racist. And if it seems contradictory that he was a racist but took jews in, here in the DR racism is way more about skin colors than it is about ethnicities.
I was familiar with the history of the Parsley Massacre under Trujillo but had no idea that he took Jews in, or with that reasoning. As a Jew... Jesus. That's fucked.
Ohhh yikes
Well, i guess accidentally doing the right thing is still better then nothing.
@@benlalammohamedrachid3112 not when its accompanied by death squads
Wow, it reinforces the video! Trujillo didn't see the Jews as people, but as a "concept"- in this case, a way to reinforce white supremacy in the Dominican Republic.

As an Australian cis-girl with size 11 feet, I can say anti-Semitism is irrational and your Australian character is spot on.
I'm a Kiwi and I can't fly Don't know what your foot size has anything to do anti semetism and I think your comment is mire to kiss up to abbys ass rather than the product of you actually sitting down and thinking about the subject and coming up with your own conclusions.. What is a Cis Girl by the way is it some new fringe minority group that has to be accomodated for now as well.

I just want to say as a Jewish Israeli who is openly critical of a lot of what Israel does I adore this video thank you so much for making it
No Israeli is innocent.
@@_blank-_ literally did you watch the video? The Israeli government often doesn't speak for the people. Also, free Palestine.
I'm actually the opposite of you me thinks. I reckon a lot of the anti-Semitism you experienced as a people in Europe was of your own making and from a combination of Jews in General not mixing with the host peoples and having a superior belief of being god's chosen people superior to your host people and at ease to exploit your host for whatever you could. I think Jews hijacked the 2nd World war and used it to vilify and destroy Germany and making it all about them in their victimhood. They destroyed the German nation and cut its balls off, then cried victim. In saying that, I do believe the Israeli people are people too and have as much a right as anyone else to exist and support the state of Israel and her dealings in that region. I actually like the modern Israeli state and how her people have come together and by and large formed a modern secular society . All of Israels military actions have been legit, and I admire their skill in war and her lack of carrying out excesses of brutality on your enemies. You will always get some incidents down on ground level that could be done better, but this is not a state organised problem. Every time I come across Israeli hitch-hikers in my country doing their post conscription holiday thing, I always pick them up and look after them in my house .
@@randomshades every synagogue flies the flag of Israel over their own nation. They are inherently disloyal
@@blakemccann445 this is a 4 sentence disaster of a comment reactions
I'm Jewish. I watched this the day it came out and loved it. Two days ago, the Colleyville hostage situation happened. I come back here after antisemitic attacks just to read the comment section. Seeing all the positivity and acceptance genuinely helps me feel better.
Clean-shaven Olly looks like the type of man Oscar Wilde would have as his muse and pose on his fainting chair

Thankfully I speak French so I can continue with the podcasts!
Not exactly. He's using it the same way he used them in the last video:
1. To decrease the risk of demonetization in the event they ignored the blatant red button.
2. As part of the gimmick of the episode. Every episode since he started recovering from his abuser's actions he has had a thematic gimmick, a character, or both.

@@timothymclean The internet is the democratization of cringe.
@@yonatanbeer3475 But the cringe is not equally distributed, he said so in this very video.
As someone who was simultaneously very critical of the Israeli government in recent weeks and disgusted by the antisemitic backlash we've seen, I found this video helped me to make sense of things. Thank you!
... And then I saw this comment was posted two years ago
@tamarbeker1701 what do you mean?
@@AmberLois ... How much do you know about the war that's been going on lately?
Hate to be a killjoy, but I gotta provide some historical context for the Dominican Republic accepting Jewish refugees - as nice as the result was, the reason for this was the policy of "blanqueamiento" by the dictator Rafael Trujillo (ironically a genuine fascist himself), which was meant to make the Dominican nation "whiter" by encouraging European immigration and committing a genocide against the Haitian minority in the Dominican Republic to prevent interracial relationships. Not to attack Abby or anything, love her content, I just think people should probably be aware that the far-right Trujillo regime, which ruled during the WWII era, wasn't progressive on racial politics or something - it's just that its anti-Haitian racism beat the more common anti-Semitism.
Shit, thank you for letting us know.
Listening to somebody say the phrase “comrade Trump” with my own ears is bizarre

In German it would actually make more sense as the literal translation comrade=Kamerad is more used in the military jargon as someone you were in the Military with.
Meanwhile a fellow worker and/or comrade of your workers Party or union would be a "Genosse"
But Trump never Served in the military either so...

@Pattern Recognized they were not Palestinian every one was born in Russia so they were Russian. They were by no possible definition Palestinian. Now if you use Palestinian as a dog whistle for Jewish people than maybe an oppressed groups are more likely to go for communist thought. Just to reinforce how stupid you are Lenin was born is Russia both of his parents were born in Russia and his 4 grandparents were born in Russia. Same goes for Trotsky. And of course most of course most of the atrocities you listed were committed by Stalin a born Christian Georgian. God just say Jews antisemite. Because none of the people you listed were born in Palestine or in any way related to Palestine for sometimes 20 or 30 generations.

"No theatrics, no fancy costumes, and absolutely no crossdressing"... Olly, we're barely a minute into the video and your makeup is already flawless.
One thing that I have found really interesting in conversations I have had about anti-Semitism is people praising Germany for educating the youth about the Holocaust and anti-Semitism, but I found travelling in Germany that many people were extremely uncomfortable when I mentioned my Jewish grandfather who was a Holocaust survivor. My flatmate's sister mentioned that she was Jewish to several good friends, and they could not believe it. They were uncomfortable to realize that their close friend was Jewish. I never really understood where this discomfort came from until a German friend of mine came and stayed with my flatmates and me in Manhattan (all my flatmates are Jewish). We would casually mention and make insider jokes about Judaism, and she later asked me about why we did that. I realized in our ensuing conversation that although German children are taught from a young age about the Holocaust and how anti-Semitism is wrong, there are so few Jews in Germany now that no one really thinks of Judaism as a modern phenomenon and a religion/culture that exists in the modern-day. I've seen this happen with Americans and Indigenous Americans where we like to think of their colonization and genocide as a thing of the past. There's a certain comfort in drawing a hard line between the sins of the past and the present. One reason I love this video so much is that it focuses on these historical continuities that connect the past and the present. If the German educational system only focuses on anti-Semitism in the past and a little bit on its existence today but does not really touch on the lives and lived experiences of the millions of Jews in the world, then people don't have to deal with the continuing legacy of trauma inflicted upon a people. I recommend for all people to not just learn about anti-Semitism but to also engage with knowledge beyond the "struggle narrative."
so true
Wow this is an amazing comment! Thank you, it really made me think abt the education system in not just Germany but also the United States. Why can’t we be taught important lessons about history without making the US seem so heroic and like a saving country? Lol I know this question might not make much sense... sorry abt that
Christina Meyer Thank you for your comment. I’m a German student currently. Next year my selected class will be dealing with right wing ideologies in connection with post/modern art and at the end we’ll write a thesis. Your comment inspire me to seek out artists who explore past trauma in relation with present. It’s true that schools repeatedly teach us about First and Second World War but not nearly as often about current state of minority groups in Germany or the lasting fallouts they have on social dynamics. Like you said it’s comfortable to seal up the past, but history never exist in a vacuum. Without dealing with it’s influence we’ll ever achieve peace.
I experienced the German educational system and I couldn't agree more. The problem is that there is a big myth about "Entnazifizierung" which means that after the second World War the German society got rid of all the Nazis in power and left their world views behind. Which is simply not true. In the 50s and 60s most Germans still saw the end of the second world war as loosing, not being liberated as it's told today.
There was and is lot of continuity of Nazi Power in politics and economics. The 68 student movement tried to address that (it had it's own problems anyway) - but today the myth is that White supremacy and anti-semitism is a thing of the past and couldn't happen again because Germans are so expertly taught about the Holocaust - which isn't true and blatantly clear in today's politics.
For more about how this myth came to be I suggest reading Max Czolleks "Desintegriert euch!" (Desintegrate yourself! )
As a German student, I can offer you one more point of consideration perhaps. In Germany, the holocaust and nationalsozialismus and all that jazz is only discussed in highly specific contexts. We talk about it in school, sure, outside of that it is considered to be, let's just say, unsuitable for polite society. It is a highly uncomfortable topic for many people, which they prefer not to talk about. It's not quite a taboo (although it most certainly is a faux-pas), as much as it is something that has been given so much power and attention that free discussion of it just isn't possible without people growing upset. We are a culture that doesn't really talk about things. Rigid adherence to remaining "polite" and not wanting to think about it too actively and just going about your day. I find an elephant in a crowded room an apt analogy; everyone is perfectly aware of its existence, and they simply walk around it because they find it an uncomfortable topic to give too much depth to. I mean, do you particularly want to think about an elephant that is in a crowded room? How did it get there? Why is it there? Who is continuing to keep it there? People are aware of modern anti-semitism. It's impossible not to be, but they avoid talking about it on most occasions. There is also a legacy of trauma for this topic on the German side of things, which goes widely ignored. There is a reason for this of course. We were the perpetrators not the victims. (upon re-reading this I kind of want to add more, but I'm not entirely sure what to add, since there would be a disconnect to the original content of my comment + i'm tire since high schools have re-opened and I now have classes till 18:00)
23:20 - "One of the core tenets of Judaism is that Jews are the chosen people."
*_NO._* Most people misunderstand this concept. Jews are not _the_ chosen people, Jews are _Yahweh's_ chosen people. Being chosen by Yahweh doesn't make the Jews better than anyone else, it makes the Jews subject to Yahweh's law and judgement -- whereas other people remained subject to the laws and judgements _of their own gods._ Judaism was formulated in the midst of a polytheistic culture, and Yahweh was never meant to be one god for all of humanity -- only to be one god for _the Jews specifically._ In Genesis, when Adam eats the Fruit of the Tree of Knowledge, Yahweh says "Now man has become like us" -- "us" was misconstrued by Medieval European culture to mean "the royal we", but "us" in the original context _actually_ means the _community of gods,_ of which Yahweh was a single member. Jews never had any expectation that the rest of humanity should have to conform to Yahweh's laws -- ask anyone who has actually studied Jewish religious law. THAT idea came from Christianity.
Thank you for saying this. ^^

Like my family is jewish (I'm an atheist), and from what I remember, when Yaweh found his people in other cities praying at other god's altars, he didn't punish the people from the other cities (again, he mightve, I'm just going off of memory), he mainly punished his people for praying to someone who wasnt him.

As a Jew, I think this video hardly skimmed the surface at all. Since you talked to Jewish script consultants I was hoping you might dive into what it's like being a Jew today and seeing anti-semitism rear its ugly head still. Being the descendant of four holocaust survivors there is a lot of intergenerational trauma lending itself to dysfunction. It's crazy that the Nazis who traumatized my grandparents can affect my life nearly 80 years later. I wish your video would have touched on what it's like to grow up being told stories of what happened to your grandparents and living with this hypervigilance/fear of it happening again. After all, all of our holidays revolve around the theme of some nation trying to eradicate us and either failing or almost succeeding. Unfortunately, in a way the theme of anti-semitism is core to our culture as a reaction to always being a scapegoat. It's wild to pass as a white person but to live around constant reminders that you are "The Other", even in small situations where people meant no harm. Being a Jew is a weird blend of masquerading as 'normal' while understanding that you will always be a foreigner.

omfg thank you so much for this video!!! my whole life, since i was little and heard my parents talk negatively about jewish people, i’ve wondered wtf is everyone’s problem with the jews? and nobody ever could answer that. not one antisemite that i’ve met could actually tell me why they hate the jewish people so much. when i grew up and asked my parents why they said what they said, they couldn’t answer. so i was like???? what is the reason???????
and this video actually helped me understand! not like it changes much but at least it makes a bit more sense now. like i know that people hate gays because of religious brainwashing and they hate women because of religious brainwashing but the jews???
You know, I once made a comparison between anti-Semitism and pornography. Both are seemingly ubiquitous across all cultures at all times and you can find a lot of both on the internet. I concluded that, much like pornography, anti-Semitism must fulfill some sort of basic irrational need. I just couldn't figure out what it was.
Abby just provided that answer. It fulfills the basic purpose of defining the other, even when the other in question is absent. Because like images designed purely for the purpose of gratifying oneself to, it doesn't need to make sense. In the case of anti-Semitism, it just has to tell you who to hate.
I like your thoughts, it's a good segway to put in the very start of a talk about antisemitism and most other kinds of bigotry, a quick very way to explain the fundamentals
Who do you think created the pornography industry in the West?

Of course we have a antisemite here. But if you know. Modern day pornography was created by two horny French men by the name of Eugène Pirou and Albert Kirchner. Both are not Jewish. In matter intact. They are barely any Jews in the modern day porn industry.
@@quesocoatl21You really think that people weren’t looking at pornography before Jews arrived?
As a black person, I have to say that this video really helped me understand a lot of questions i've been having about antisemitism. I won't lie that I have often considered many jewish as white and have not taken their problems as seriously as I should. Dismissing their calls of antisemitism as exaggerated because I thought they were not important, at least not as much as facing black people. I was going to click away when I saw the video was almost an hour but now I'm glad I watched the whole thing. Not only was it interesting but it challenged a lot of the underlying thoughts I had been having about antisemitism. So thank you for making this video.
I'm Jewish and really support what BLM has been trying to achieve, but have really struggled with the antisemitism of the leaders. When I question or say I disagree with it, I'm not welcome and sometimes have faced outrage. I don't feel like I am welcome, so have felt like I have to stand aside. I try to buy from black owned businesses, learn about racism to improve myself and help others learn, advocate reforms, vote, change the systems in the ways that I can, but still do not feel comfortable with the BLM leaders. I've had many talks with other Jews who feel like, yes antisemitism is bad and growing worse, but BIPOC have it worse, so we should be quiet and address that first, even though they are tied together. Thank you for starting to understand that it is a tightrope and I hope you can learn a bit more about the history of the tropes that are used and how they have been used.
as a jew, no real racist white person considers Jews white, since we are originally middle easterns, and even if our skin colour is different than it was 2,000 years ago we still have lots of middle eastern DNA that white supremacists think of as "Disgusting"
in fact, im also an arab jew (jew that her grandparents and community lived in an arab country) and even within Asia and the middle east we are classified as Hebrews, there is a word in Arabic to Jews which is the equivalent of "N" word that my grandfather used to hear in Iraq a lot, it's "Yehud".
in the past highly respected Muslim leaders used to insult each other with this word, because even suggesting that there is Jewish blood in you was, in the society of back than, like having "devil's blood" in your veins.
my grandfather suffered a lot in iraq because of this.
This is interesting. As a white person, I get the sense that you can fall into the racist trap on either end. Seeing Jews as fundamentally different and "other" is racist, given that Jews have been a part of "the West" (whatever that is) for centuries. You can also go too far the other way by failing to see that many forms of Judaism do maintain a partially distinct culture and heritage. It seems like a balancing act.
@@NC700xLover
jews were always in this unstable middle ground. this is basically one of the reasons for antisemitism,
in Iraq, my family was the same "race" technically (middle eastern, like arabs, that's why we are called arab jews) but it was still a pendulum of "same- but will always would be inherently different from everyone else."
My favorite thing about Olly’s channel is that he encourages me to challenge my underlying thoughts.
why this video is great:
-Abigail talking about something not very discussed in the left (as a jew thanks)
-Drivel calling out Karl Marx
-ABIGAIL DOING DRAG
-French AND spanish
a leftist youtuber calling out left wing AND right wing antisemitism is very relieving. It's why I love Ollie's videos, and he even handled the Israel section well.

Watching this video as a French guy who's fluent in English, I have to say that your pronunciation is pretty good (even if some translations are a bit weak but French is a weird language) and that it feels very weird to have your brain be able to automatically switch between the two languages as if they were just one. Also, thank you for bringing a closer light to this part of history that wasn't explored in such details in school over here

I was watching the live steam yesterday and I wondered why his brows were so fine... Now we know!
Ok, at first I definitely liked him more with the beard but his cross dressing madame de la resistance was too perfect to keep me from falling in love again, stupid olli being so damn pretty all the time
He’s freaking beautiful! This man is a prettier lady than me and he doesn’t even have to try!
Right? I mean he always looks incredibly attractive, but the clean shaven look really makes his eyes look amazingly beautiful.

"What can I say but Yikes" Was a close second. I was not expecting an educational video to be full of zingers.
I haven't laughed that hard in a while.
It’s a shame that after an hour long, incredibly insightful deep dive into antisemitism, a huge chunk of comments are about Abigail’s gender and “cross dressing”.
That being said, as a leftist Jew this video is very meaningful to me. Thank you Abigail for taking the time to research this and educate your following ❤️
Agree.
Completely agree. I am both trans and converting to Judaism, and this is in no way the place to be commenting on her gender. She made a long coming out video that is more appropriate of a space, and she took the time to make a genuine deep dive into issues that are rarely discussed about a deeply prominent issue. It's a shame people can't take a minute to put others at the forefront at least in the comment section. Thank you for vocalising this
Don't worry, that's literally every comment section on her channel pre coming out
Or maybe do worry? Important topics are seemingly overshadowed by this
That had been getting on my nerves as well. I’m sure it’s not the case, but it feels as though they weren’t watching this video for its contents, but rather for clues of Abigail’s transition
!!!
i like to consider myself a history nerd, and i try too read or listen and learn as much as possible!
Your way of explaining and telling things is one of the best ways (as in most digestible ways ) ive found too get info, learn stuff or brush up on stuff. Without it being mega dry or longwinded..
The best part of the intro is that Abby couldn't even keep a straight face when she blatantly lied about what she would not be doing this video.
I know, right? Adorable!
Well, he is a trained actor after all, so he absolutely knows what he's doing. And it's working :)
Rewatching this video, saw my own comment and had to make edits to match Abby's identity.
This is really interesting. I'm someone who has some physical characteristics in common with stereotypes of Jewish people, but I'm not Jewish. Many times, I've seen relief on the faces of white, Christian people when I've revealed that I'm not Jewish. It's weird. Their whole attitude changes towards me. It's like they're saying, "Whew! For a minute, I was wondering if maybe you weren't white. Thank god you are because now I can relax." I don't think these people are even aware that they're doing this. It makes me very uncomfortable and reminds that white supremacy and antisemitism is everywhere.

Lol and I’m the exact opposite. I’m Jewish, but literally EVERY time it’s come up in conversation, people’s first response is “but…but you don’t LOOK very Jewish?” Just because I have blond hair and blue eyes. The first time was when I was 9-ish? It’s gotten very annoying. I get it, I don’t look like the stereotype. You don’t have to SAY it.
You know, I’ve never experienced this to my face because I wear my Judaism on my sleeve. I have nothing to hide regarding it and I am incredibly proud of my Jewish ethnicity and religion, as I have thousands of years of history. However, this is VERY interesting to hear. Now I am super curious as to what people in my community actually think of me (I live in a predominantly WASP neighborhood)
I’m binge watching philosophy tube in no particular order and yknow, having a few trans friends I find it quite easy to turn the “person is x gender” setting on in my brain, but the way you can really see her come to terms with being a woman is so beautiful and is something I never noticed in my friends, and I think for anyone who struggles with turning the “person is x gender” setting on could benefit from watching the videos where she is still presenting as male in videos, but is likely living, personally or publicly as female, like this one.
I'm Jewish, My family is very noticeably Jewish...We still keep a firesafe lockbox of passports and all necessary information to leave the country last minute "Just in case". Many people think that anti-Semitism only started being a thing during the holocaust and that it ended after it...but it didn't. Anti-Semitism is easy to conceal and think isn't there because it's so baked into society that people just think it's normal. I really appreciate this video. I've seen so many things invalidating how harmful anti-Semitism is or that Jews aren't actually a minority or targeted in any way and it's just scary and hurtful. I don't support a lot of what Israel's government does but people have to understand that it was made because throughout our whole history every single country we settled down in kicked us out in some horribly violent way and none of the other countries wanted to accept us so we were stuck. Israel gets rid of the fear of having no where to escape to...it's a safe haven and It's the only Jewish country in the world. Not to mention that it has been genetically traced that Jews are indigenous to that area of land (yes even the white looking Jews). There have been so many nights when I just stayed up and cried because of how scared I was. And it very often feels like the only people I can rely on to stand up for me are fellow Jews because the right doesn't see us as white enough to be worth fighting for and the left sees us as too white to be worth fighting for. It really means a lot that my family and I aren't alone in this world. That there's someone who is willing to acknowledge the anti-Semitism that's seen as normal. Thank you.

Thank you for being a non-Jewish person who has actually done her research into what antisemitism actually is and looks like. It is frustrating how much antisemitism is in the left, after standing in solidarity with them on so many other things. Many don’t realize that antisemitism still exists or know that they’re doing it. I once posted on social media how my country’s (the US) overabundance of the Christmas market is borderline propaganda and that my cousin once came home from elementary school, on a day they had a Christmas party, wishing he was Christian so that Santa can come to his house and give him presents. Even my own friends were trying to tell me how stupid I was for even bringing it up. To sum it all up, they thought I was criticizing each of them for celebrating Christmas instead of criticizing the over-advertising and marketing of Christmas (which is a product of capitalism, you know, the very thing us leftists all collectively hate).
There are a few facts that would be worth adding here.
- To add to the fact that not all Jews are white, believe it or not, the current Jewish population in Israel is made up of a big mix of races. The Jewish population in Israel is made up of Jews from all over the world (and therefore all different races) who immigrated there, including Jews from other parts of the Middle East, and from South America. This is why I cringe when anyone tries to argue that the oppression in Israel is rooted in white supremacy (along with the other things you pointed out about that Jews have also been oppressed by white supremacy).
- Also, there were Jews before British colonialism who were actually indigenous to Palestine. In fact, when European Jews first arrived during the colonialism, there was actually conflict between the European Jews and the Palestinian Jews. Another argument I often hear from leftists is that the oppression is an act of colonialism, even though there were already Jews indigenous to the land, on top of the fact that the UK were actually the colonizers.
Also, anyone else find it contradictory that Christian leftists love pointing out that Jesus was Black and Jewish and that he was whitewashed by the Europeans, and then assume that all Jews are white and European?
Also, I just wanna say, I discovered your channel via your coming out video. I was so afraid to watch any videos you uploaded before that video because I wanted to see the new you that I met and it felt weird to see content from the person you used to live as that I never met. It’s relieving to see that you’ve given hints to your real identity in your videos prior that one, like the “crossdressing” you did in this video.
I think you would really like the book Blood Brothers by Elias Chacour.
You forgot the most important thing that feminists want: pockets of equal size to men's in our trousers.
And our dresses
My dress today has no pockets. It is too pretty not to wear, but I would like to see 'the manager.' The manager of pockets!
I'm afraid it's a losing battle. As a man who still finds pants pockets too small, I'd argue we should just ALL start carrying purses around with us.

I'm perpetually surprised with how much sense Abigail's videos make and how she helps me connect dots between things i didn't realize were connected. Props to you, Abs.
This was a truly excellent video. Thank you for also addressing the antisemitism of the left; although it’s not as dangerous as that of the right, it’s still significant.
To expand on this, it’s exasperating that many on the left make excuses for fascist, antisemitic Islamic societies and only focus on Christianity. Both religions need to be held accountable.
There is no “anti-Semitism of the left” that’s clearly nonsense that Israel bootlickers like yourself believe in order to justify your support for a country that occupies Palestinian land. Oh and drop the the whole “fascist, antisemitic Islamic societies” nonsense, Israel is clearly a racist Islamophobic society
If more of us thought about our wrong ways as “doing an antisemitism”, “doing a racism”, “doing a transphobia” etc rather than ~being~ it, we would make more progress.
that would definitely make more people less likely to double down on their incorrect perceptions, because actions are easily correctable, you make an awesome point :)
I love that idea
Indeed! Attacking people’s identities, labeling them as a racist, or transphobe, etc. makes people quite defensive, sometimes irrationally so. But some people also just balk at being called out 😅
@@HerneHunter "cancelling" and just shutting out people who do wrong is not gonna make them do right. If we just ignore a part of the population, it's not "pure equality and egalitarianism". I do think that thinking about racist acts for example as just an isolated mistake one makes is inaccurate, but I believe in encouraging change. (by the way, I shouldn't have to say it but I'm part of a minority, so, yeah).
if you ask yourself: "am i a bad person?" you most likely just use your redeeming qualities to excuse everything else. that's just how people in general are! but if you're asking yourself "am i doing something wrong?" you force yourself to focus on your faults, because you remove yourself from your actions and can therefore judge them better. and it's more likely that you'll work on them. if you realize: "hey, i'm doing this thing that i would scrutinize others for!" you have already done the first step to improve yourself. and calling yourself a "bad person" isn't gonna cut it, because how the fuck are you supposed to work on yourself, when you have no clear direction on self-improvement?

it's not exact, we say "arab jew" cuse it's easier for others to understand world wide, usually we have been using "mizrahi jews" since in bibilical Hebrew (which my grandfather used to speak in iraq, like most jews in Baghdad) Mizrah= from the east, meaning eastern jews (ashcenazi, or Maharavi jews, are "from the west" for example)

I'm Jewish and I really appreciate you taking the time and effort to make this video, this means a lot. It's just really upsetting that the majority of the comments have nothing to do with this incredibly serious issue and are about crossdressing. I just find it sad.
It seems that many who have left comments are either uncomfortable with the topic of anti-Semitism and/or rather flippant about it hence have focused on crossdressing. And the rest of the comments are disappointing since it's clear there is a lot of anti-Semitic commenters and the rest are Jewish individuals who feel like yourself.
@@Adara007 And for some reason the video seems to have been thrown directly at the RUclips historian community, who are all eager to correct, specify, and expand upon the video.
I grew up in Iran, where, unfortunately, even among many of the left leaning folks, antisemetism has a solid presence. I found this video to be incredibly helpful, and it was a starting point for me to learn much more about the history of antisemetism. Thank you Abby from the bottom of my heart for this.
One question: why not include a section on the history of the protocols of the elders of zion? It seems that played a very pivotal role in the shape and severity of modern antisemetism, and now looking back on this video, it's absence is palpable to me. Perhaps could be part of a follow up video?
OLLY, as a Jew, THANK YOU SO MUCH. It seems like no one on left tube talks about it. I think the hardest part about “defining” antisemitism is that it’s a PERCEPTION, not an ideology. Thank you.
I think the "perception" definition could be extended to other forms of prejudice as well. Misogyny, homophobia etc. are all based on people perceiving x group in a negative way.

@Ben Black you can criticise Israel without being anti-Semitic, stop hiding behind your identity politics. Israel does not represent Jewish people. Israel does not care about Jewish people. The prime minister of Israel is a HOLOCAUST REVISIONIST. So again, stop hiding behind identity politics to avoid valid criticism.
@Ben Black you’re calling criticism of Israel anti-Semitic. Do you think that all Jews support Israel? Do you think that Israel is representative of all Jewish people’s interests?

One of my favourite quotes from this episode xD
It's so refreshing that finally someone did not include all the Jews in one political group, especially the Jews living in Israel in regard to supporting the Israeli government .. I am a Jew living in Israel and I completely disagree with our government in a lot of matters ( especially on the issue of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict). Recently there are especially a lot of civilian attempts to replace the prime minister, there are huge rallies every day in the big cities and especially in front of his home in Jerusalem, protesters shouting for him to resign (and go to jail because he is very corrupt and dealt horribly with the corona in the country and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict) .. Some people here really want the situation to change for the better for everyone here.. There is police violence in the rallies and arrests for no reason but not at the level of the United States, they are truly the best in that matter:)

Too bad both versions couldn't live on as separate beings, like Riker's transporter accident. Two separate channels, but occasional collaboration.
On transatlantic yesterday you'd said something about using this time to test the waters, or words to that effect. And in retrospect, it really shows.
I loved your catch 22 video, despite, or perhaps because, of how painfully endearing it was. I listened while at work, so I didn't get to see the costumes. I'll have to watch it later for the full effect.
Maybe I'll put it on my projector, and watch you at larger than life, movie theater scale. 🙂

I hesitated for about a week to watch this video upon seeing the title. I'm usually afraid to hear about non-Jewish peoples opinions on antisemitism , because it's usually used for a particular agenda, or is just wrong, even if the intention is good. After watching this, I can say that it's good... damn good. If there is anything that I've learned in my time on this planet, it's that non Jews hate it when Jews try to explain what antisemitism is, and to be honest, we don't do a good job of it ourselves. It's really really complicated, because it deals with the human condition in a subconscious sort of way, at least to some extent.
Overly Sarcastic Productions did a video called "The Persistence of Judaism", which to me has been the gold standard and my go to video in explaining Judaism and antisemitism in a single video. That video finally has company. Thank you Philosophy Tube for taking the time and doing the difficult research into a very complicated topic. As I write this there are 3,892 comments, and 235,707 views- (thanks to all of you that took the time to watch it, and to those who gave it a thumbs up),- so I highly doubt many will read this, but if by chance you do read this, Philosophy Tube, I want to say Toda Raba תודה רבה
@Ian Miles There are no intrinsic differences, but people grow up with different experiences and challenges. As such, a jew will have more experience dealing with anti-semitism, so it would make sense to give them preference to talk about it over a non-jew because they have a higher level of expertise on the subject.
@Glühfunke It wasn't for his benefit, it was for the benefit of anyone who may have asked that question in good faith.
the thing is people from both sides tend to highjack legitimate discussion to fuel their view points. for example whenever there is discussion about the Palestine Israeli conflict, antisemites express their racist views under the cloak of Palestinian solidarity and the right wing extreme pro Israel people use antisemitism as a cover to demonize the Palestinians and shut down any legitimate discussion about Israeli oppression of the Palestinians.
Ian Miles there is nothing intrinsically wrong with it. It’s just that non-Jews have never experienced anti-semitism, so it’s hard for them to understand what it’s like. It’s like how a cis person can’t really understand transphobia. A cis person could do a lot of research, and talk to a lot of trans people and get a good idea of transphobia, but that would still only be a theoretical academic understanding. A cis person still wouldn’t know what it’s like to victimized because of their gender identity. Likewise, a non-Jew can do a lot of research and talk to a lot of Jews and get a good (but not perfect) understanding of antisemitism. However, people rarely put in the amount of work required to understand these topics, so when non-Jews discuss antisemitism they tend to miss the mark.
I waited too. Because who doesn't love the Jews, right? Your comment made me watch the video and the video gave me more vocabulary to discuss it. Hooray!
Damn, I know this comment is late, but this is a bloody brilliant video. This is a really complex subject and you talked about it really well. I didn't agree with everything but you said a lot of things about this subject I've never heard before, and everything was intelligently spoken about
