No.

Exactly, what I was saying, so you did get it.

I did not say that. What I stated was that the rich educated were disproportionally (secular) Jews.

Not a great response.

That came later, in the 19th century with the so-called emancipation of the Jews. Before that, "secular Jews" were not really a thing.

Yes, I was talking about the German culture from late 19th to 20th century, which was what the Nazis found and were eager to destroy. This did have roots in the middle ages, which I mentioned.

A few rich people are enough to hate a whole group. White men are also not all rich, yet they are displayed as the privileged which need to be disadvantaged by some today.
