An episode of the American podcast FreshAndFit has gone viral after disturbing antisemitic declarations from eight participants, who stated that "the Jews probably did something to the Germans that made them act in a certain way," effectively blaming Jewish people in Germany for the Holocaust, along with various other antisemitic and conspiratorial remarks.
"Nobody wants to talk about it," argued one female participant, receiving smiles and approving nods from her podcast colleagues. "They were up to something, so the Germans wanted to take them out... they started it," she proceeded. "The Holocaust was the only way Hitler can take out a huge population all in one setting, but I already know what's going on, I'm not dumb – the Jews were up to something, that's why they are sitting up here," she stated, suggesting that Jewish people hold key positions. "They're trying to take back and get repruccsions, especially from Americans, so they have taken over the government."
Responding to this explanation, one participant inquired, "How do we take them down?" Another participant replied, "We must kill these motherf**kers," while yet another participant suggested "genocide."

"He [Hitler] had to do what he had to do," stated one participant during the continued conversation. "He was trying to save the world," he added. The participant who began the discussion on this subject continued, "Jews are the reason why the healthcare system and the government is collapsing, because they are stealing away from the American people."
Social networks erupted responding to the severe statements, several of which explicitly advocate violence against Jewish people. "The irony of all of this is hearing it come out of the mouth of a black woman," commented one user. "Every single person sitting on this panel should be investigated!" responded another. "Hamas has run the most successful PR campaign in world history," contributed another user, among thousands of stunned reactions to the discussion and the platform facilitating it.
