The Libertarian Party of the state of New Hampshire made an antisemitic tweet mocking the Holocaust on Thursday.
“6 million dollar minimum wage or you’re antisemitic,” the party tweeted. The 6 million dollars refers to the 6 million Jews that were murdered in the Holocaust.
The tweet was met with condemnation amongst Twitter users and Jewish organizations. The tweet was then deleted following the criticism.
Reactions
“Is the systemic murder of 6 million Jews supposed to be humorous @LPNH?”, asked the non-partisan Jewish organization Stop Antisemitism in response.
Fellow organization Jewish on Campus simply tweeted in response: “May both sides of your pillow be warm.”
