Yes yes. Killing thousands of people in what looks like genocide? Okay! Protesting the killing resulting in a couple of people getting into physical altercations? This is UNACCEPTABLE! We cannot tolerate antisemitism! Hate is not okay!
Imagine thinking you have to choose between not supporting genocide and not permitting anti-semitic violence.
Imagine thinking that anything that shows, even remotely, some opposition to what jewish people do is antisemitism.
That's antisemitism right there, you didn't even need to click into the article, just open your eyes a little.
Sure thing buddy. This antisemitism that you're talking about is happenening right now because people are awful. It has absolutely nothing to do with the genocide in Gaza. Nothing! In fact we have been experiencing "antisemitism" for ages at Berkley every time a jewish speaker was invited to talk. /s
How disconnected are you from the real world?
Imagine excusing violence and antisemitism in America because of the actions of a government thousands of miles away.
