like one of the only (bullshit) arguments the Zionists have is that opposition to Israel equates to antisemitism (not true), but from what i understand, the "Semitic family" includes both Jews and Arabs, but i am potentially very wrong about this.
also i guess even if it is true, it's not a very good "gotcha" since it misses the point and truth doesn't matter to genocidal swine
What's the origin of the word "antisemitism" anyway? Did the word always mean "bigotry against Jews"?
I ask because this reminds me of the way that white people are sometimes called "Caucasian" even when they're not from the Caucasus mountains. Turns out that originated from a German eugenicist so I'm wondering if this word has a similarly sus history.
