I mean, a nation state tried very hard to commit out and out genocide against Jews 80 years ago...

It’s like asking why cannibalism is more frowned upon than murder. It is, but not by a large margin and the other one’s horrible too.

Where can I read about this?

No sarcasm here, your local library.

I don't agree with the premise of this question.

Anti-semitism IS a brand racism. Your question assumes that some racism is more okay than others. No brand of racism should be more acceptable than another brand. Race is not just color of skin. That is a common misconception though.

If you are asking why anti-semitism is frowned upon, it is because they have been killed, enslaved, exterminated, oppressed, etc. at scale for centuries. There are fewer than 15 million Jewish people alive today.

This has not been my experience. I have found that antisemitism is often applauded in spaces where racism against black or brown people would never be tolerated. And this antisemitism comes from people on the left and the right of the political spectrum equally, just in different forms. It also comes from people all over the world, from all types of socioeconomic backgrounds, with all sorts of gender expressions and gender identities, from all sorts of religions and ethnicities, and from atheists and from people with all different levels of educational achievement. So much so that Ayaan Hirsi Ali, a noted ex Muslim, who never even met a Jew before she emigrated to the Netherlands, apologized to Jews for her former antisemitism. When it’s considered a good thing to be white, we are not considered white. When it’s a good thing to be black or brown, we are considered white. We are blamed for being rich and blamed for being poor, blamed for being capitalist and blamed for being socialist or communist. We are blamed for our own victimhood. A few years back a Jewish man was murdered in New Jersey. His neighbors expressed anger at the Jewish community for “bringing that here”. Here on Reditt there was a video of a Jewish guy being punched in the face, the act was applauded by hundreds of people, likely people who would never say the same about a black man being punched.

Sadly not just one.
