I've never really understood this. RemiRoyer33, perhaps you could explain your reasons.
I personally don't really know. Half the kids I grew up with were Jewish, but I never noticed anything different about someone who was Jewish and someone who was of another religion, other than they went to two separate places to worship the same "god".
Some of it is religious; i.e. the importation of the Krishna teachings from Asian caravans into Imperial Rome became a new cultist sect of Judaism known as "Christianity". It rubbed people raw back then for various reasons, and still conflicts with a lot of today's religious groups.
Ditto with Judaism.
In short, some people do for strange reasons.
I'll say this, I was treated with far more friendliness and respect by the kids of Jewish families than I ever was by anybody else save for my Asian friends.
I've got issues with Hollywood using nazis all the time in movies as bad guys, and I've got issues with why we don't see more films where we call out who the bad guys are in real life today and historically, but that's me.
I really can't imagine anyone in their right mind harboring any kind of real deep seated hate for "Jews".
It makes no sense. -

Hatred is often caused by the group which is hated actually being guilty of actions that someone has a very good reason for disapproving of. Humans are animals in competition with each other so there's no real reason why non-Jews should think it is wonderful for Jews to gain control over everything.

Why do some people like Jewish people so much? They have flaws just like any other group of people. It comes down to a matter of research and personal opinion, there isn't a universal law that says you must like all people.

The overwhelming majority of those who categorize themselves as
"Jewish,"
are terrific people, but, as with any group of folks, there are notable exceptions, and I know a few of them who I dislike, intensely.
But, as information, I have relatives who are Ashkenazi Jews and who live in the New York City area.
(Take note of the last four letters in the word, Ashke

Old tradition, across the world.
It just became
fancy
again.
