Being against modern Israeli policies is not anti-semitism.
Calling it anti-semitism is an hypocrite and perfidious way of silencing all opposition by playing the victim card against millions of people that have died because of actual anti-semitism.
It's disgusting.
- vogon_laureate 6y agoPlease enlighten me how holding Jews "collectively in contempt" and "I thought anti-semitism was unfounded hatred of Jews? If you hate them because they did something awful, like implement apartheid, it is not anti-semitism, but perfectly justified critique of people who in particular should know better than that" is {checks notes} "being against modern Israeli policies not antisemitism"?
- 1_player 6y ago2 out of 3 quotes in your comment are not mine and it's not my place to justify them, but please don't mix them with my own personal position, thank you. I agree that a small part of phk's comment would benefit from more cautious wording, but I stand by the fact that trying to cause a flame war by playing the antisemitism card is disgusting and I suspect you're doing it in bad faith.
- vogon_laureate 6y agoThose quotes are by the man you are chiming in for to defend as 'anti-Israel' comments, so they are very pertinent to the conversation. As for the "antisemitic card", I generally find that anyone who uses phrases like that is usually the one doing so "in bad faith". HTH
