People have attacked synagogs for Israel’s actions because of the star of David. People conflated the two.
It would be great if people did nuance. They do not
Yeah, some people have done that shit. I’m not arguing “there’s no antisemitism anymore”, that would be ridiculous, and antisemitism sucks. What sucks too is using antisemitism broadly to accuse non-antisemitic but anti-zionist protests against genocide in Gaza.
I agree. But I think it behoves people protesting against Israel to be very clear on that point and using the star of David and phrases like “the final solution” is the very opposite of that. To me, that looks pretty antisemitic.
I say that as an atheist who detests the actions of the Israeli state and who has been pro Palestinian for decades.
Bottom line, hatred of any group is appalling and people need to be clear that’s not what they’re doing
