DavidB vs Reinhold Quaatz

[DavidB.]

I understand why Antonio saw similarities between the guy and me, but the differences are important too. I didn't know this guy, but from the German Wiki it becomes clear that he was actually an antisemite himself. He definitely wasn't part of any Jewish community, and likely didn't even self-identify as Jewish. His Jewishness certainly didn't influence his politics one bit. (I'm sure I wouldn't have been in the DNVP in the first place...) This matters, not just in itself (as it is a pretty major difference) but also because I strongly doubt someone with the same background and my level of Jewish involvement and observance would have gotten away as easily.
