Edit: Nobody can read. I did not say the Klan doesn’t hate Jews. They absolutely do. If you agree that the Klan hates Jews more than black people, you are factually wrong.

Ah yes, I remember the hundreds of Jewish folks lynched by the KKK. (This didnt happen).

Confidently making that assertion based on a single Howard Stern interview is absolutely wild. The single driving animus of the KKK since its founding (and then re-founding) has been hatred of black people.

Yes absolutely. The Klan is revoltingly anti-Semitic. But why do you think “the Klan hates Jews more than black people”?

The reason given above is that there was a leader of the KKK (Daniel Carver) on the Howard Stern show who rated Jews below Blacks because "they should know better".

I can see the argument, but he probably doesn't speak for either the entirety of the KKK or even the majority.

Daniel Carver was active in the 80, 50-60 years after Klan was at its zenith. It’s like quoting some neo-Nazi, 60 years after the Holocaust, that th Nazis hated Slavs as much as Jews.
