I'm not hear to talk about Palestine, Hezbollah, or Iran. I mean in general, objectively, it's getting thrown around so much, for reasons that do not seem antisemetic in nature.

Wasn't that obvious when people that say they don't tolerate genocide, without even mentioning israel, are automatically labeled as antisemites?

The "antisemitism" brand is just a way to keep playing victim. They sow both fabricated AND real antisemitism.

The fabricated one is used to blow numbers out of proportion. The real antisemitism is used by individual example.

In the end, Israel is the self-made innocent.

Always fun to remember people that Israel is antisemitic because Palestinians would also be counted as Semites and also that Semite is a borderline racist, best-case oversimplifying term. The cherry on top is that is was coined in Germany
