Jews were taking part in public life in rather big and noticeable ways throughout written history. There's a book about one of them that's quite well read... I think it's clear that you're going to keep looking for real or imagined differences between the situations to dismiss the parallels, because the parallels are uncomfortable. That's fine, there's no expectation on you to recognise how dangerous so-called 'social justice warriors' are today. But think about the similarities instead of searching about for reasons to just reject the whole train of thought outright. It may prove important.

You're really grasping now. Assuming you're referring to Jesus, allow me to point out the obvious fact that he wasn't European, and antisemitism as we understand it today did not exist in his time. By "the right to participate fully in public life," I'm referring to citizenship and equality under the law. Please see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_emancipation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_emancipation As to the dangerous SJWs, well, I suppose you'll be able to say I told you so when we're bunking together in the reeducation camp.
