Racial Anti-Semitism was developed during the period of Queen Isabella of Spain, specifically during the Inquisition. The common Anti-Semitic canard here is that Jews are somehow genetically inferior or lesser than other humans. Hitler argued that they were deficient emotionally as well as mentally. In the European context, this racism was directed at Jews, arguing that as Semites (Middle Eastern people) they were not as well-developed as Whites. In the case of Racial Anti-Semitism, by dint of being a Jew, a person is inferior and there is nothing that this person can do to become an acceptable citizen. The only change Hitler made to this paradigm was to add Social Darwinism to this and argue that the inferiority was genetic as opposed to "blood-borne".

How has antisemitism changed?
Christian antisemitism, the dominant form from the time of the crusades to the 19th century, discriminated against Jews because they were responsible for killing God and had rejected the Gospels. By the late 19th century, a new conspiracy-centered and secular antisemitism arose, holding that Jews were secretly attempting to control the world and all the world's wealth. With the rise in racial thinking in the late 18th century, Jews were considered to be a separate racial category, but in the late 19th century, a second secular antisemitism arose that focused on Jews as being racially inferior while masquerading as whites and threatening to poison the purity of the white race.
