And before someone chimes in with people just claiming criticism of Israel is antisemitism, no. It’s things like this:
I mean it’s a little bit of column a, a little bit of column b. There’s a significant increase in actual antisemitism, no doubt about that, but the numbers the media parrots are produced by organizations like the ADL and I believe I don’t need to explain why that’s a problem.
Of course that is a problem, but some people here on Lemmy also have gotten the idea into their heads that antisemitism isn’t a thing anymore. Because I’ve seen it here over and over that people think it just means “criticism of Israel.”
If nothing else, that lets organizations like the ADL win, so I’m not sure why they’re giving them that win.

I never saw anybody denying that antisemitism don’t exists. I don’t we will ever have a world with 0 type of racism
