Det öppna judehatet
Strax före jul 1926 trycktes ett litet häfte som följde med tidningen Vidi. I häftet listades alla butiker och varuhus i Göteborg som ägdes av judar – och som Vidi tyckte att läsarna borde undvika. På 1920-talet var judehatet inget man smög med i Sverige. Det var utbrett och hade särskilt starkt fäste i Göteborg.
Tidningen Vidi angrep homosexuella och judar, liberaler och modernister. Helt vanliga och välkända varuhus annonserade i tidningen med rubriker som »Gynna icke juden! Gynna den svenske affärsmannen!« Chefredaktören hette Barthold Lundén och grundade också Svenska Antisemitiska Föreningen, en förening som hade flera tusen medlemmar. På 1930-talet valde en del judehatare att ansluta sig till nazistiska grupper - som Svenska Nationalsocialistiska Arbetarepartiet, som använde sig av hakkorsflaggan.
I dag hade både Vidi och NSAP kunnat fällas i domstol för hatbrott, till exempel olaga diskriminering eller hets mot folkgrupp.

MAGAZINE ”VIDI” - In the 1920s antisemitism was widespread in Gothenburg. It was home to the Swedish Antisemitic Union and the magazine ”Vidi”, which listed which shops were owned by Jews

Open antisemitism
Just before Christmas 1926 a small folder appeared as a separate printed insert in the magazine Vidi. The folder listed all the shops and department stores in Gothenburg that were owned by Jews – and that Vidi believe its readers should avoid. In the 1920s antisemitism was not something people in Sweden concealed. It was widespread and was particularly deeply rooted in Gothenburg.
Vidi attacked homosexuals and Jews, liberals and modernists. Totally ordinary, well-known department stores advertised in the magazine with headlines like “Don’t benefit the Jew! Benefit the Swedish businessman!” The editor-in-chief, Barthold Lundén, also founded the Swedish Antisemitic Union, which had several thousand members. In the 1930s some anti-Semites chose to join Nazi organisations, such as the Swedish National Socialist Workers’ Party, which used a swastika flag.
Today both Vidi and the NSAP could have been convicted in court for hate crimes, such as illegal discrimination or incitement to racial hatred.
