Tbf it's possible to 'help' certain people even under a regime. In apartheid south Africa, white workers complained about a lack of jobs and blamed a few black professionals on it. So the apartheid regime initiated large construction works to provide jobs.

That's because politicians reuse them - iirc local Nazi parties had greater share of votes in German town/regions where there had been some medieval pogrom back then.

Reminds me of when Americans and white people (including persons named Nima) talk about Asian men.
