Jews and the Atlantic Slave Trade
Thread 🧵 Image
The Jewish involvement in the Atlantic slave trade is a "taboo topic" for many historians, and even mentioning it can be considered antisemitic. In this thread, I will provide some evidence on this topic.
Let's start with the ships that played a significant role in the Atlantic slave trade. Image from the four-volume series called "Documents Illustrative of the History of the Slave Trade to America" by historian Elizabeth Donnan. Image
From the book "Sins of the fathers: a study of the Atlantic slave traders, 1441-1807" by Pope-Hennessy, James.

Jews also took an active part in the Dutch colonian slave trade, they even had a "Jewish tax" for each negro slave a Brazilian Jew purchased from the West Indies Company. Also, slave auctions were postponed if they fell on a Jewish holiday. Image
Of course, Jews were not only slave traders but also some of the leading slaveholders.

"Almost 40 percent of all Jewish householders in the United States owned one slave or more."
From the book "United States Jewry, 1776-1985, Volume 1" by Jacob Rader Marcus.

Based on the previous source, at a minimum, well over 20% of all US slave owners were Jews, despite being 0.7% of the population at the time. Image
Even the Jewish Encyclopedia acknowledges that during the seventeenth century the sugar industry was monopolized by the Jews and that the cotton plantations in many parts of the South were wholly in the hands of the Jews. Image
Some examples: Image

The most famous book on this topic is the first volume of the 3-volume series called "The Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews" by the Nation of Islam. Some quotes from the book: Image
The inspiration for this thread was "The Jewish Onslaught" by Professor Tony Martin. A book that exposes the well-documented Jewish role in the Atlantic slave trade.

Jews and the LGBTQ Movement
Thread 🧵: Image
The LGBTQ movement unofficially started with the creation of a secret British society in the 1890s called the “Order of Chaeronea” that campaigned for the legalization of homosexuality. It was founded by Jewish writer George Cecil Ives. One famous member was Oscar Wilde. Image
The first organization to publicly promote LGBTQ rights was the Scientific-Humanitarian Committee, founded in 1897 in Berlin by Jewish sexologist Magnus Hirschfeld. The committee's efforts laid the groundwork for modern LGBTQ advocacy. Image

PewDiePie VS ADL
Thread 🧵: Image
In September 2019, PewDiePie (Felix Kjellberg) announced that he would donate $50,000 to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) during a video that celebrated his achievement of reaching 100 million subscribers on YouTube. He was the first person to reach this number.
Many PewDiePie fans were surprised and confused by his decision to donate to the ADL because in 2017, when he lost partnerships with Disney and Youtube due to some “Anti-semitic jokes”, the ADL thanked them for their decision. Image

Third Reich and Palestine
Thread 🧵: Image
Western leftists and so-called “Anti-Zionist Jews” often push a narrative that compares Israel to Nazi Germany. In this thread, I will examine the relations between the Third Reich and Palestine and the National Socialist view on Zionism. Image
In the eleventh chapter of Mein Kampf, Adolf Hitler claimed that the Zionist plan to create a Jewish state in Palestine was not with the intention to live there but to create a central organization for their “international world-swindle”. Image
