[3] Some researchers have argued that in certain historical settings, the writings of Karl Marx have be interpreted in such a manner that allowed for a socialist antisemitism to be manifest.
While socialist parties in the early 20th century aimed to create a classless society, they also grappled with antisemitism within their ranks and among the working class.
[9] One understudied area is the history of antisemitism in Dutch labor unions, especially concerning early socialist leaders like Ferdinand Domela Nieuwenhuis.
Apparently, this was because Domela Nieuwenhuis used stereotypes about Jews to attack his opponents, who relied on Jewish diamond cutters for support.
