Nazis did not give special treatment to Jewish writers, for example Josef Čapek

They kind of did. The Nazis started out by hunting down and imprisoning or killing academics. If you were smart and educated, and not well connected inside the Nazi party, then you were enemy number one at the start of their takeover.

Yeah, that kind of special treatment, absolutely. But once in a concentration camp, they'd be just another subject with a number, albeit likely a lower one.
