@greenWhale @besendorf Etymological trolling does not change the common - historicallly grown - meaning of the term antisemitism. @beta3 @besendorf nor does conflating criticism of a state with hatred towards a cultural heritage and belief system, but here we are. @greenWhale @beta3 @besendorf it takes some serious stones for non-Jews to racialize Jews by calling us Semites (Göttingen school of history) and then another non-Jew to create the term antisemitism (Wilhelm Marr) so he could create a political party with the goal of getting rid of Jews to then play fucking word games when you all stuck the fucking word on us in the first place. @greenWhale @besendorf Not sure who you are replying to now. Neither me nor @besendorf have equated general criticism of Israel with antisemitism. Criticizing the Israeli government (or the population that has elected it -"Israel") is certainly legitimate as long as Israel's right to exist is not denied, as long as the history of the conflict is not ignored, etc. |
@greenWhale @aral @beta3 you obviously dont know what Antisemitisms is. Please read it up.
