    Actual antisemites are by far the biggest winners of this. Because pro-Palestine opinion is so widespread and the word “antisemitic” has been thoroughly dragged through the mud, calling actual Nazis out for antisemitism barely registers anymore. The word lost its meaning and getting called antisemitic is almost cool now.

      Yup I’ve been say8ng since the beginning calling an entire generation antisemitic for being opposed to genocide is just going to make that generation of people completely right of any future claims of antisemitism.

      How easy is it for some actual nazi to say “well yea they call me anti Semitic but they also called a bunch of aid workers anti Semitic for trying to feed the people who’s homes isreal just bombed.”
