Why do some people hate Jews also what are some ways to spot a Jew living near you?

Answer 1

There are numerous reasons why Jews are hated and to avoid replicating them, here, please see the Related Question on just that topic, linked to below.

As for "recognizing Jews". This is a very sensitive matter since Racial Anti-Semitism has often been predicated on Jews looking a certain way or walking in a certain fashion, etc. As a result, it becomes problematic. Also the phrasing of the question "spot a Jew" seems to indicate fear or loathing of them as opposed to "meet a Jew" or "find a Jew". There is nothing to fear or loathe a Jew for. As for being able to see them, religious Jews, especially the men, often wear religious paraphernalia such as kippot (skullcaps) and talitot (shawls with fringes). Some strains of Judaism also have payyot (sideburn curls). Religious Jewish women often dress more modestly than most Westerners, covering their arms, legs, and bosom. Non-religious Jews are indistinguishable from general Western Society.
