    You are being dismissive of people who are against antisemitism because “they couldn’t possibly be talking about actual antisemitism”

    That seems to just be digging a deeper hole for yourself

      No, he’s saying that criticism of Israel is not anti-semitic. In fact, I would argue that Israel’s actions and attitude are probably the main driving cause of anti-Semitism currently. They are the ones who insist that they represent all Jewish people.

        So you’re saying their comments are entirely irrelevant to the conversation and come from a point of ignorance rather than an attempt to distract and discredit

        I initially thought that as well, that’s why I corrected it until they decided to double down on the take
