It’s sad that any bad sentiment towards the Zionist regime is getting conflated with antisemitism. You don’t have to hate Jewish people to hate an apartheid state dead-set on ethnic cleansing and genocide.
Similarly, you don’t have to like how Hamas operates to sympathize with their goal of overthrowing said apartheid state.
Yep, that’s exactly the dumb, bullshit claims about antisemitism I was talking about. I can’t take any claims of antisemitism seriously when it’s really just anti-zionism or basic criticism of the authoritarian nature of Israel or just their inhumane treatment of the legal citizens so illegal settlers can steal their land.
I refuse to accept basic criticism of Israel as antisemitism, because that gives them an intellectually lazy rhetorical dodge to justify committing acts that their forebearers had once claimed ‘never again’.

That’s not the distinction you should be making.

FTFY. For as long as I can remember, Israel has been doing shitty things and mischaracterizing any criticism as antisemitism.

Being anti-israel is the only moral position.
