We are more than our fears and problems!

I think antisemitism began to get serious around the time of the reformation because religious differences were stressed and the Holocaust is not to be figured out.

It is incomprehensible.

I have made an educated guess that the lost tribes are the celts, with very little left to prove but tribal similarities and perhaps a bit of stuff in the gene pool.

I also read that Jews in the last three hundred years have spent time trying to figure out lost cultural identity much like the American Indians recently have been doing!

The effects of regaining ones culture have done magic and I believe it is important that no culture is destroyed if it can be prevented.  Also America has a culture, it does.

Jews would exile their own people if they were violent forwards a European and forced to leave their town or city to keep safety for thousands of years.

Jews mixed the most with Europeans during the time of the Lithuanian-Polish Empire!

A 16th century phenomena!

Many Jews in Northern Europe were from the soldier tribe/class like Kshatriya in India.

More Jews in other parts were very religiously observant and were part of a different tribe.

REALITY CHECK: Medical sales.. Its what an elixir (Snake Oil) was in the middle ages, it's basically the same thing Same human move. Different wrapper.Medieval and early-modern elixirs promised long life, restored vigor, and a fix for whatever terror was in the air—plague, melancholy, impotence, “bad blood.” The pitch was authority (a learned name, a rare ingredient, a secret process) plus fear plus hope. You paid before the body voted.What is the same now A vague enemy (toxins, inflammation, “food noise,” aging, a syndrome with a new acronym). A bottle, shot, powder, or protocol that claims to interrupt it. Testimonials instead of a hard endpoint. A priestly class: then apothecaries and court physicians; now influencers, longevity clinics, and “studies show” slides. The customer’s job is belief and repurchase. What is not the same Some of what sits on the same shelf as elixir talk is real: vaccines, insulin, statins, GLP-1s with trial data. Regulation exists (uneven, slow, better than a 14th-century fair). Chemistry is not astrology. You can still get a vitamin that does nothing next to a drug that does something, in the same Instagram grid. That mix is what makes the analogy feel true and sloppy at once.The durable part People would rather buy a story that says “this is the missing key” than live with “you are aging, tradeoffs exist, no powder cancels that.” Elixirs never died. They learned checkout and clinical language.So: yes, the genre is the same. No, that does not make every modern treatment a medieval potion. The skill is telling the two apart when the ad wants them indistinguishable.
