The 1938 antisemitic board game resurfacing in conversation
Original: So in 1938, right after Kristallnacht, a Dresden firm called Günther & Co. sold German families a board game called Jude
A Dresden company called Günther & Co. sold German families a board game titled Juden Raus! in 1938, shortly after the Kristallnacht pogrom. The game, a notorious piece of Nazi-era antisemitic propaganda, is being discussed again online, with one user drawing a comparison to a White House arcade reference and linking the history to present-day politics.
Why now: The historical game is being invoked to draw a pointed parallel with current US political events.
