Madam Curie was not Jewish, but using Jewishness as a slur was seen as demeaning her more.

I have heard people assume that somebody else is Jewish - even when they're not - and make negative inferences as a result. I haven't heard it often but it's shocking. It's similar to when somebody makes a racist comment to another white person, assuming they'll agree.

Fortunately I don't witness this much, but I know it's there.
