Sometimes I think of America’s reputation “oh we got over our antisemetic stuff by the 60s”

And how much of that theme was small merchants \u2013 Herbert Moon from RDR, basically \u2013 concerned that Jewish rivals had privileged access to Jewish wholesalers, distributors, importers, transatlantic shippers, all the way back to the European manufacturers and financiers that underpinned the system

And the way this resolved those guys didn’t see the error of their ways or repent, it was just that European manufacturing and finance became much less important to American commerce and the role of Jews in it was greatly reduced

Like, the significance of Henry Ford was he was the avatar of American domestic manufacturing

The significance of his antisemitism was he was the avatar of American domestic manufacturing
