The degradation of humans to ticks, i.e. parasites, ties in with the animal metaphors used in the language of Nazi Germany. The terms "pests" and " Jewish parasites" were widespread in National Socialism. Today these pest metaphors are also widely used in right-wing extremist music and can also be seen as indirect incitement for killing. Violence committed by right-wing extremists was often described as "tick slapping". In the punk or rapscene the term is used as an antonym and sometimes as a self-d ...

White Power Music
White power music is music that promotes white nationalism. It encompasses various music styles, including rock, country, and folk. Ethnomusicologist Benjamin R. Teitelbaum argues that white power music "can be defined by lyrics that demonize variously conceived non-whites and advocate racial pride and solidarity. Most often, however, insiders conceptualized white power music as the combination of those themes with pounding rhythms and a charging punk or metal-based accompaniment." Genres include Nazi punk, Rock Against Communism, National Socialist black metal,Pulera, Dominic J.,''Sharing the Dream: White Males in a Multicultural America'', pp. 309-311. and fashwave.

It is based on the myth that the Jews of the Jewish diaspora, diaspora are incapable of State-building, forming their own states, and would therefore attack and exploit states and peoples. The stereotype is often associated with the accusation of usury, and the separation of productive capital and financial capital ("High Finance"). In the Nazi period, it served to Legitimation, legitimize the persecution of Jews, up to the Holocaust. Some representatives of Zionism also took up the motif. They regarded a "parasitic" way of life in other cultures as an inevitable consequence of the diaspora, and contrasted it with the establishment of a Jewish state as an ideal. History From the Eighteenth Century to ''Holocaust'' The earliest evidence of the antisemitic myth of a "Jewish parasite" can be found in the 18th century. Precursors were found by the German-Israeli historian Alex Bein, Alexander Bein, ...
