    Without a definition of “antisemitic”, one that distinguishes between hate directed at Jews for their ethnicity or religion, versus criticism of the state of Israel or supporters of Israel, then I’m taking this with a massive pile of salt.

    “Antisemitism” is being weaponized to suppress any opposition to the genocide of Palestinians, the taking of their land, the occupation that has lasted for more than half a century already.

    It’s disgusting how Jews all over the world are letting this happen. We hear all the time “do you condemn Hamas” asked of anyone who doesn’t fully support everything Israel does, but then we should be able to ask them

    Do you condemn Israel?
