Sadly, years after graduating, a very good friend of mine was indoctrinated into antisemitism.
There was some family lore that, back in Armenia, a Jew cheated his Great-Grandfather over the purchase or sale of a goat.
Also, someone convinced him he should hate Jews because of all the fuss concerning the Holocaust, while ignoring the Armenia Genocide.
And, although we had been great fans of the Marx Brothers, he decided he now hated them as well.
We parted ways ... permanently.
His reasoning, to me, was Bat-Shit crazy.
(and one point he even encouraged me to date his sister. she was attractive and pleasant. but thank the lord I chose not to ... )
