Sharply more Americans than 20 years ago say antisemitism is a very serious problem, as Jewish Americans' reports of poor treatment exceed those of other faith groups.
Saying that it’s okay if one group of people that someone tried to wipe out, does whatever they want, because of course they’re the victims after all, is exactly how we got to this situation where Israel is committing terrible crimes and people are trying to defend their right to do so.
Anti-Semitic people would wipe out Jewish people in Israel if the United States withdrew its support of Israel. That doesn’t in any way justify Israel targeting civilians or engaging in genocide, but it’s disingenuous to claim only one side is threatened with annihilation. Nor does it imply that both the threat and the action are “totally the same thing.” Nobody is suggesting that.
Except one thing is wiping out an entire people, but so totally the same thing 🤷
