"Antisemitism is the socialism of fools" (German: "Der Antisemitismus ist der Sozialismus der dummen Kerle") is a statement opposing the idea that purported Jewish "wealth" and "power" is the source of social injustice.[1] According to British historian Richard Evans, it was probably coined by Austrian left-liberal politician Ferdinand Kronawetter, but is commonly attributed to the German social democrat August Bebel and sometimes to Karl Marx.[2] The phrase was in wide circulation among German social democrats by the 1890s.[3]
In the view of neoconservative philosopher Leo Strauss, Soviet leader Joseph Stalin had considered that, because fools were common, a "socialism of fools" would be a good thing; hence, Strauss argued, Stalin had deliberately cultivated antisemitism.[4]
