The ticket mentality itself carries the same anger against difference as anti-Semitism does

Evidence

The reaction against the Jews is heightened into a true object for persecution—an object of instinctual release—by the political ticket. The “elements of anti-Semitism,” which are based on experience but are defused by the loss of subjective experience shown in ticket-thinking, are remobilized by the ticket. Already proved to be inadequate, these elements give the neo-anti-Semite a bad conscience, and thereby lead to insatiable evil. — Theodor W. Adorno, Max Horkheimer, Dialectic of Enlightenment, 164 (#expands, via linked claim)
