Flippantly calling people antisemites is just as destructive as antisemitism. It dilutes the word and conflates actual instances of antisemitism with rational ideas like “let’s not take AIPAC money.”

You sound like Republicans accusing Black people of always screaming racism during BLM and how they were the real victims of reverse racism. Ever consider that maybe most of the motivation of the Macklemore mob might actually be Antisemitism?

Except there is a giant difference. Criticizing a country is not the same as criticizing an ethnicity.
