Yes, the antisemitism is being focused on to manufacture consent for Israel. It’s not (and can’t be) deep. Liberals equate supporting Israel as supporting the Jewish people, so criticizing Israel is antisemitism. And then they point out all the antisemitism like that supports their argument.
Maybe it’s being focused on because there’s literally Nazi flags being marched down streets in Wisconsin and synagogues being shot at, along with Jewish schools in Canada… I’m sure you don’t have to look too hard to find more examples.
Like you can’t actually deny there’s a wild increase in Antisemitism right now even if you want to claim it’s being used as cover for Israel.
Eta I’m admittedly sensitive to this right now… there was a house that was shot up on my street last month that the cops are investigating as an Antisemitic hate crime because the victim was, at least according to the police, followed home from a pro Israel rally earlier in that day.
There absolutely is an increase in antisemitism, and it’s fucking shitty that that’s not being talked about. Instead we’re policing the voices of protestors, raising anything said, regardless of intent, to be antisemitic. They literally automatically talk about protestors when talking about the rise in antisemitism, when it’s just the freaking nazis again. Can’t talk about the nazis, nope, gotta be those protestors who just don’t want to watch another goddamn Genocide without saying anything.
In my City, it was not a Nazi who followed the Jewish girl home and shot at her. It was a protester. In new York it’s not Nazis accosting Jews on the streets it’s people carrying pro Palestine flags.
I don’t see Nazis marching in rallys with signs saying 'clean the world of Jews ’ which is an age old Antisemitic trope out of the Elder’s of Zion. Those are supporters of Palestine. Chanting gas the Jews in Sydney was done in a crowd of Palestine supporters.
I’m not saying Nazis aren’t a problem at all. I’m pointing out they’re part of the problem and the bigoted sentiments clearly being exhibited by the supporters of Palestine is also a part of it and that absolutely needs to be discussed. If you believe what you’ve written that Antisemitism is a growing problem, then I’d ask you to start looking at the people around you and how they’re displaying their messages. You don’t have to look far to see the hate.
