I would not want to be an automaton spending eternity kissing somone's ass. But it would also be a shitty thing for a friend to invite you somewhere and then tell them to wait outside then realize they were just using you.
There really is truth to the entire history of anti Semitism. It really wasn't up until the 70s and 80s that Jews in America became more trusted.
