I too enjoy conflating anti-Zionism with antisemitism. Both Jews and Palestinians are semites, dumbass.

[–] James_Jim_Jimmy@lemm.ee -3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

anti-Semitic, adj. Characterized by prejudice, hostility, or discrimination towards Jewish people on religious, cultural, or ethnic grounds; anti-Jewish

my poor spelling aside, you wanna argue w/OED, be my guest.

You're not addressing their point. You're the one that equated being virulently anti-israel with being "antisemitic" in your initial comment.

And frankly taking a look at the modlogs the removals I see seem all perfectly justified (mostly the spreading of actual lies, such as bullshit about decapitated babies).
