“Antisemitism has been weaponized to suppress anti-Zionism” and “Antisemitism is on the rise” are both true “Antisemitism is not systemic” is false and it’s also actual Nazi propaganda

Antisemitism is a genuine threat to American Jews AND it's on the rise (though nowhere near the level that my parents grew up with). However, it's a mistake to call it systemic. A 🧵: bsky.app/profile/eita...

This is a misunderstanding of the word "systemic" when it is used to describe racism and other types of prejudice. Antisemitism isn't cooked into our societal systems - government, business - the way that anti-Black racism still is. The threats we face in the US are from OUTSIDE the system. 🧵

I don’t know who you are, but I clicked your profile and the first thing I saw was genocide denial. So I don’t really have any interest in debating this with you

IDK - did you read the actual thread or just the first post? In any case, I'm comfortable saying that IDF actions in Gaza encompass both war crimes and crimes against humanity. I'm just not CERTAIN that it's a genocide after reading a number of the available arguments. It's how I process info.
