what did Shakespeare mean by this ?

>I am a Jew. Hath not a Jew eyes? hath not a Jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions? fed with the same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject to the same diseases, healed by the same means,
warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer, as a Christian is? If you prick us, do we not bleed? if you tickle us, do we not laugh? if you poison us, do we not die? and if you wrong us, shall we not revenge?

Monkeys don’t really have the same passions and affections. Also monkey dimensions are considerably different from human ones

False. They even have group loyalty, can sacrifice themselves, etc.

It's basically just a long-winded version of "my fellow whites" and anyone who has been following the play up to that point should be laughing, knowing his base and corrupt nature. Shylock is a reprobate and the Christians show him incredible grace; by divesting him of his earthly possessions (recall: 'my ducats' and then 'my daughter') they put him on the path towards righteousness, for he is wicked but not irredeemable. In a similar vein he shows us that there is nothing wrong with marrying a big titty Jewfu as long as you perfect her by converting her to the One True Faith.

Shylock trying to justify his inhumanity. Go listen to Portia's quality of mercy speech for the antidote. Shylock was wrong (of course).

Race is a spook. Being born Jewish doesn't make you part of a hivemind that believes all the same things. It's like Yuro's and their "American's do x!"

That play is literally an indictment against racemixing. Othello never consummates the marriage with Desdemona and instead forms an unholy union and anti-marriage with Iago which is consummated with the death of sweet Des. That marriage of distinct races beget on its wedding bed not new life but new death, that's the moral message of the play.

And you're doing the same with them right now. Distinct populations differ in noteworthy ways, and it just so happens that your stereotype of Europeans is grounded in reality, their stereotype of Americans is grounded in reality, and Venice's stereotype of Jews was grounded in reality.

Scale of dragon, tooth of wolf,
Witches' mummy, maw and gulf
Of the ravined salt-sea shark,
Root of hemlock digged i' th' dark,
Liver of blaspheming Jew,
Gall of goat and slips of yew
Slivered in the moon’s eclipse,
Nose of Turk and Tartar’s lips,
Finger of birth-strangled babe
Ditch-delivered by a drab,
Make the gruel thick and slab.
Add thereto a tiger’s chaudron,
For the ingredients of our cauldron.
