Anti-Semitism expresses civilized people’s hatred for reminders of civilization’s failures

Evidence

Anti-Semitism represented the hatred of those who were civilized' for all those who reminded them of the failures of civilization. In what had originally been the final thesis on anti-Semitism, the sixth, it was even stated that disentangling rationality and power and liberating thought from domination would represent the step out of an anti-Semitic society’ and make `the Jewish question … the turning point of history’ in a sense different from that intended by the Nazis. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 1420
