I’ve been seeing a lot of anti-Semitism from people claiming to be on our side. Why? I’m a Trump republican Christian with a lot of Jewish blood and it’s very weird to me to hear people on all sides hating on jews. Anyone care to elaborate as to why so many people have these views? I love this community and am a lifelong conservative but hearing hate from people who claim to be on our side really hurts and digs deep. Again, I’m not a practicing jew, but a Christian who would like to be able to recognize and honor my Jewish ancestry

It's because of this essentially:
The issue is that Jews do disproportionately dominate the areas of society that are often correlated with the negative aspects of society. Arguably, this is merely due to Ashkenazi Jews having one of the highest IQs of any race. Regardless of the reason though, it's not a good look for Jewish people. Take billionaires for example. Only 2% of the total US population is Jewish but 40% of the billionaires are Jewish. If this large of a discrepancy existed based on skin color then there would be huge cries of systematic oppression and racism.
You can find such a huge disproportionate influence in media, banking, tech, academia, intelligence, law, etc... regarding Jewish people in positions of power and influence that it's really easy for people to draw conclusions that Jews are responsible for society's problems. Hitler made the same connection. That connection he made still looks to be apparent today. You have Jewish people behind the New World Order, The Great Reset, Critical Race Theory, Marxism, Antifa etc... at a disproportionate level. This leads to many people seeing the Jews as being root causes of the problems in society.
