Pogrom - a violent riot incited with the aim of massacring or expelling an ethnic or religious group, particularly Jews, but sometimes others. The Slavic term originally entered the English language as a descriptive term for 19th- & 20th-century attacks on Jews which occurred in the Russian Empire.

There's a book out about this.

Interesting that so many Jews turned to communism because they were the only group who'd support them.

We're seeing that a lot on the left now. Certain identity groups become extreme left wing because no one else will put up with their nonsense, not because their beliefs are actually left.

IFIFY:
We're seeing that a lot rebranded as "The Left" now. Certain identity groups become agents of chaos because the powers that be benefit from their nonsense, not because their beliefs are actually "Left". The Hegelian dialectic - problem, reaction, solution - will ultimately feed the gluttonous "authorities" more power.
