The "N Word" video is on the reddit front page today.

https://www.reddit.com/r/PublicFreakout/comments/z8r9dm/german_policeman_reacts_to_being_called_a_nazi_at/

Comments are predictable.

Just goes to show, you can have 150 people behave in an unreasonably calm way, but one person uses an incendiary phrase and that's all anyone will see.

Sadly, yes.

The more of a collective derogatory comment it is the higher the thumbs up count it receives, all in the name to denounce the single person who used the "N" word.   ::) ::)

I was not confusing making jews board, cattle cars, that is, with denying boarding planes. i was not talking about the boarding part at all but about the way they talked and put the blame on "them Jews". "Jews are the ones who caused the problem, Jews will pay." This is extremely nazi like:
from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_racial_theories#Jews
Hitler shifted the blame for Germany's loss in the First World War upon the "enemies from within". In the face of economic hardship as triggered by the Treaty of Versailles (1919), Jews who resided in Germany were blamed for sabotaging the country. The Nazis, therefore, classified them as the most inferior race and used derogatory terms such as Untermensch (sub-human) and Schwein (pig). Nazi propaganda endorsed the anti-Semitic Stab-in-the-back conspiracy theory which claimed that the Germans did not lose the First World War, but instead were betrayed by German citizens, especially Jews.
Etc. Etc.

Covered by Insider over Shabbos. I can't see the actual article (paywall after five read), but the RSS feed quotes only Hamodia. However, the picture is credited to Dan.

"More than 100 Orthodox Jewish passengers who were barred from a Lufthansa flight in May 0f this year have reached a settlement with the airline for approximately $21,000 each, the Jewish-interest newspaper Hamodia was first to report."

They were, huh? Didn't Hamodia themselves give you the credit? If so, that's just sloppy.
