Gonna be as concise as possible.

Criticism of Israel's government is not criticism of all Jewish people.

Criticizing the practices the Israeli government imposed on Palestinians over the years as they were coached by the UK and US is not criticism of all Jewish people.

Calling the Israeli government and Zionism crappy for currently promoting widespread, systemic genocide is not a criticism of all Jewish people.

If a person wants to be antisemitic, they may use those phrases to refer to all Jewish folks. But I would caution against assuming the worst of someone specifically talking about the Israeli government, especially if they're from one of the countries currently spreading it all over the news.

#static speaks #i'm having to say this because i'm getting cursed at by some (not all!!) jewish people #i said that i didn't like how israel tried to blame a recent hospital bombing on hamas when we have proof they did it #there's also the tag going around saying antizionism is antisemitism #and fine #if being against british-prompted zionism and genocide is that person's definition of antisemitism i guess i'm that #but i don't think being against zionism is direct hatred toward judaism tbh #nor is it hatred toward jewish people #and i strongly disagree with those that equate the two #israel #palestine #don't spread antisemitism #as in don't spread hatred toward jewish people #especially don't participate in hate crimes
