Antisemitic attacks have local context rather than revealing a global conspiracy

Evidence

Groups within the extreme right incorporated anti-Muslim replacement fears while retaining antisemitic tropes, claiming that Jewish elites were secretly orchestrating non-white immigration to Europe.

In this sense, it must be possible to face and understand the outrageous fact that so small (and, in world politics, so unimportant) a phenomenon as the Jewish question and antisemitism could become the catalytic agent for first, the Nazi movement, then a world war, and finally the establishment of death factories. — Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism, 10 (#complicates, via linked claim)
