you are antisemitic if you don't think the National Guard should be called up to murder peaceful student protestors

It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Israel has said flat out that it uses antisemitism accusations as a means to stifle criticism. Have you not seen the news since Oct. 7th? We have zionists swearing up and down that "from the river to the sea" is antisemitic for christ's sake. It's totally trivialized the word and given cover to actual antisemites, I'm talking real neo-nazis to spread hatred, it's totally backfired.
look at the ADL's "antisemitism tracker"
The ADL is so fucking craven and cowardly with it's shit. The head of it was gloating the other day on CNN over Asna Tabassum getting stopped from speaking.
that doesn't mean that the word antisemitism has no meaning or that antisemitism isn't a real and present factor.
The concept is very real, and absolutely a pressing problem.
The word becomes less and less meaningful the more zionists use it to justify blowing children to smitherines.
Zionist are just extremely disingenuous. I read Innuendo Studio's curious cat and every Israel apologist there just talks like they are trying to get him in a gotcha. Some examples that come to mind:
-Keep accusing him of wanting to exterminate Israel or being in the 'Israel should not exist' camp when his stand has always been 'Israel should stop being an aparthied and grant equal rights to Palestinians'
-Accusing him of comparing Jews to nazis (more often than not is other curious cat askers on his page that are comparing Israel, not the Jews, to the nazis). Every time he says 'Israel is conducting genocide' these hasbara brigaders jump to accusing him of calling Jews Hitler.
-I remember one user who after Innuendo Studios said that Israel should stop being an ethnostate/ aparthied was like 'oh so you support soft genocide where one race mixes with another to eventually produce offspring who dont resemble their parents'. When he called this mindset out as nazi shit they, predictably, accused him of calling Orthodox Jews nazis.
-Inventing bullshit hypothetical scenarios that are not happening right now. Like wrt the Ansar Allah blockade one asker was like 'would you still support them if they were nazis'. Basically what he called Values-Neutral Governance in the You Go High, We Go Low Alt-Right Playbook video.
Israel should not exist. This is not anti-Semitic to say. Colonial projects have no legitimacy and Israel has no more right to existence than Rhodesia or Apartheid South Africa
