    All correct, but “antisemtism” is still a word that means “hatred towards the Jews” :)

    You don’t have to take my word for it… see for example [1] or [2].

      Definitions change and words can be reclaimed. If European Jews can claim it despite having no Semitic ancestry and not speaking a Semitic language until after Zionism, why can’t Semitic people who always spoke a Semitic language? Moreso if said Semitic people have been systematically massacred and oppressed by European LARPers who weaponized the term. You are just being antisemitic.

      That’s how the Jews have labelled it. Don’t fall for the that trap.

      Hitler said racism is only racism when it’s against the Aryan race. Therefore I cannot be racist when I burn down your family home and send your mother to a death camp.
