“On campus, we’re seeing students either turn a blind eye to the conflict, or we’re seeing those who are openly celebrating our pain, you know, glorifying it, justifying it,” Gritz told The Hill. “They’re casting the murder of Jews and Israelis as progressive, as liberation. It’s just honestly very, very scary as a Jewish student on campus who has friends and family in Israel.”
“It should not be hard to shut down hatred and antisemitism where we see it. That is a core tenet of solidarity,” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) said in a statement after a rally in New York City in support of Hamas.
“The level of anti-Arab hate and rhetoric hasn’t been this high since the aftermath of 9/11. It is far worse than the Trump years,” Abed Ayoub, the national executive director of the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, said on X. “We’ve received many calls for assistance in dealing with threats and intimidation. Schools across the country are vilifying Palestinians, and elected officials are setting up the stage for hate crimes against Arabs.”

Going to an anti-Israel rally is being anti-Jewish in the same way that cops who do stop and frisks are being racist.
There may be no hate in your heart, but your selective targeting of one group over another is playing into a bigoted system.
Like, I’m sure the anti-Israel protesters are just as outraged about North Korea, China, all the Arab countries that are oppressing women, killing homosexuals, and are so anti-Jewish that they’ve killed off or exiled their entire Jewish population.
… But they only ever get around to protesting Israel.
No, it’s not. Speaking out against an oppressive regime in an apartheid state isn’t targeting Jewish people. It’s targeting the oppressive regime in an apartheid state.
It’s like saying that criticizing the American government is the same as saying you’re anti-American, or speaking against the CCP is being anti-Chinese.
It’s just blatantly false, and an attempt to suppress others from speaking out.
