Seen in a larger context, this is how corrupt empires end. They lose the trust and confidence of the population, then outlying provinces (states) begin ignoring or countermanding the empire's official edicts. Eventually the provinces stop paying tribute (taxes) to the empire. Then empire representatives begin finding themselves unwelcome in the provinces, even to the point of fearing for their very lives.
That was the trajectory of Rome and many other empires that followed. But if the fall of empire is followed by a renewal of our Republic, can this be a bad thing?
After the fall of the Roman Empire, we entered a multi century period that historians call "the dark ages." So for all of its flaws, the fall of the Roman Empire was not exactly a good thing for a very lengthy period of time. I'd like to hope that we won't have 15+ generations living in the dark ages after our generations are gone.
The Dark Ages weren't that bad. That period of history got the moniker because there was not a lot of literature being written at the time. The cultures at the time were still flourishing though.
They were not allowed in Christian culture, could hold no office, and were confined to ghettos.
This is the lie that was told to justify the concept that "the Jews are the most persecuted race" and the subsequent "don't be an anti-Semite" customs that keep people from digging into the evidence. The reality is they held all countries and The Church in bondage through money. They held all the money. They loaned all the money. They did it in Rome, they did it in the Holy Roman Empire after Rome, they were the Dark Ages, not to mention the "fall" of the Roman Empire.
It's also important to understand its not all the Jews. It's the ones at the top. It's the Priest Class of Jews (Moses and Aaron et al), the ones that have ruled no small part of the world for three or four millennia.
