>-- Just one moment.

>-- Yes, sir, Stephen said, turning back at the gate.

>Mr Deasy halted, breathing hard and swallowing his breath.

>-- I just wanted to say, he said. Ireland, they say, has the honour of being the only country which never persecuted the jews. Do you know that? No. And do you know why?

>He frowned sternly on the bright air.

>-- Why, sir? Stephen asked, beginning to smile.

>-- Because she never let them in, Mr Deasy said solemnly.

>A coughball of laughter leaped from his throat dragging after it a rattling chain of phlegm. He turned back quickly, coughing, laughing, his lifted arms waving to the air.

>-- She never let them in, he cried again through his laughter as he stamped on gaitered feet over the gravel of the path. That's why.

>On his wise shoulders through the checkerwork of leaves the sun flung spangles, dancing coins.

Just marathoned Chapter 2 and dropped this book like a hot sack of shit. This isn't redpilled. Mr. Deasy did nothing wrong. He's just looking out for his hard-earned money. DEDALUS IS JUST A JEALOUS PUNK ASS BITCH

okay seriously though, why is it so many great works of literature feel they have to sound off about der jude? even in tons of novels before 1945. whether they were for or against them, they still thought they had to get their 2 cents in. it's almost as though to be considered literature you had to say something about the jews, even though some surprisingly anti-jew sentiments run in some of the works still considered to be in the modern canon.

Ulysses is pretty much all about der jude

Leopold Bloom is the son of a Hungarian Jew immigrant to Ireland.

He's been involved in shady money schemes and gets cuckholded

It's like how a story taking place in 2016 will almost certainly mention Trump.

The Jews were widely disliked at the time and whether or not you followed the sentiment, you still encountered it in weekly life.

Because Joyce saw tons of casual anti-semitism in Irish culture and felt that it was misplaced. He was antisemitic in his youth too and felt bad.

I don't think that part is actually particular to jews though honestly, it's just prejudice in general. The joke of Deasy's joke is that 2 chapters later a jew in Ireland becomes the main character. Deasy is an idiot.
