No, we have been hated since the beginning of time.
_____________
There is nothing to be gained by exaggerating, and much to be lost. The 'we've-always-been-so-hated' view expressed by some Jews, though understandable, is very bitter and suggests that the Jews are a people living in some sense under a curse.
Having said that, I would date the demonization of the Jews from the First Crusade (1096) and it is fair to say that it has been remarkably persistent. However, there have also been periods of tolerance - for example, in the 17th-19th centuries and again in the 20th century. There have also been enormous variations from country to country.

MORE In Nazi Germany homosexuals were required to wear a pink triangle and many were sent to camps as well as gas chambers. When the war first started the German SS death squads would experiment with the fastest way to kill a large amount of people. The first people they used were from the mental institutions, homosexuals, and disabled. They first tried loading people into the back of an enclosed truck and then hooking up the exhaust from the truck into the back. When this didn't kill them fast enough and when they couldn't do a lot of people they began to think of other faster ways.
_________________________________________
Only homosexuals convicted of a crime (generally homosexual acts) were required to wear a triangle, 90% of homosexuals successfully evaded the Nazis' grasp. None were sent to the gas chambers. There were no people walking around outside of the penal system with a pink triangle akin to the yellow star that Jews were forced to wear.
SS death squads were at (or just behind) the front lines and did not take part in the experiments of mass execution.
The T-4 programme was responsible for these experiments, which involved closing (physically and mentally) disabled people in a room and filling it with exhaust fumes, no person was included for being homosexual. Later this method would be employed in the gas vans for other groups of people.

There were not punishments, rarely were these orders direct/official.

The guards and the Commandant.

presumably you mean out of the inmates;
the problem was that any inmate could be killed at any time for no apparent reason.

Mischling or mischlinge is a German term that means a person is of mixed heritage. Specifically in the time of the Third Reich, a mischling was a person who had one or two Jewish grandparents even though they themselves did not practice the Jewish religion (or even have Jewish parents).
Today, the term mischling is used by Germans to simply mean a person of mixed background, without the negative connotations implied during the Third Reich. It is comparable to the term multiracial in the United States.
