    I know this point has been beaten to death by now, but it also dillutes the meaning of "antisemitism" to the point where it will, with 100% certainly, end up harming the Jews who aren't genocidal shits, who far outnumber the zionists.

      Being a fully antisemitic movement, that is a feature of Zionism, not a bug

        100%. Probably the largest myth the Zionist Entity uses to justify its own existence is that the only place that is safe to be Jewish is the Entity: everywhere else on Earth is teeming with antisemites chomping at the bits to commit antisemitic pogroms. To this end, zionists foment antisemitism wherever they can to fuel this myth.

      “Antisemitism” in an official, governmental sense, is meaningless at this point. It’s good to point out that the “Jews will not replace us!” crowd is not viewed by our government as offensive or problematic. There needs to be a new word for it.

        IIRC the term "antisemetism" was chosen and propagated by antisemites to bury the more accurate word: judeophobia.

      At least in my area, most Jews are at least supportive of Israel, though they won't defend the worst actions of the idf, they just kinda go quiet if you mention the violent glee on display. There are definitely anti-colonialist anti-zionist Jews though. deeper-sadness
