Calling Israel Critics Antisemites Won’t Solve Antisemitism
Calling Israel Critics Antisemites Won’t Solve Antisemitism
When pro-Israel voices carelessly accuse their opponents of antisemitism, they reduce a serious and specific charge to just another political slur. The longer this goes on, the harder it is to identify and respond to real and gravely serious antisemitism.
They don't want to solve antisemitism, they want to shut people up.
Ur-Fascism Trait #14
Ur-Fascism speaks Newspeak … to limit the instruments for complex and critical reasoning…
Muddying language, redefining and appropriating common words and terms so that the ideas cannot be easily discussed… that is all Ur-fascist newspeak.
Israelis have devalued the word antisemitism.
Of course not.
It will make it worse.
Pretty sure that’s the point.
There is profit to be made in eternal victim-hood. Look at convicted felon Trump's donations rolling in.
