i get why people are skeptical of claims about ārising antisemitismā in a world where a genocidal state is claiming everyone standing up to them is being antisemitic, but the reality is that the average person actually genuinely is being more antisemitic. every comment section on every single post i saw about Holocaust Remembrance Day was like this
israelās actions ARE causing a rise in antisemitism in the average gentile, because they push the narrative of representing jewish people as a whole, which would make us all culpable for their horrific actions. and even the people who arenāt being antisemitic themselves are certainly more okay with the people around them being antisemitic. it's likely someone you know or are close with believes in some sort of conspiracy about jews running the world or having all the money or controlling the media etc etc. not zionists, not israelis, jews. israel wants jews to believe that everyone hates us and theyāre the only safe place for us to exist. as a diaspora jew whose family fled the shoah this is not fucking true and itās insulting to say that it is, but being a gentile saying this shit only helps israelās cause because it's what they want us to believe. they want the world to hate jews. donāt fucking fall for it. judaism is not zionism and zionism is not judaism.
