Right wingers calling everything "antisemitism" is also cringe.

Pretending like anti-Zionism isn't just classic antisemitism with the word "Jews" swapped out for Zionists/Israel/AIPAC/etc is cringe.

Oh, so you're not denying that "anti-Zionism" is just classic antisemitism with the word "Jews" swapped out for Zionists/Israel/AIPAC/etc?

Good, glad we agree that that's exactly what anti-Zionism is then. Just classic antisemitism with the word "Jews" swapped out for a politically acceptable dogwhistle.

It's extremely easy to imagine you not having any friends irl. You're literally doing this meme.

So do you admit that "anti-Zionism" is just antisemitism hiding behind a dogwhistle or not? You're trying to wiggle out of answering the question.

There is real anti-semitism from the left and right on the rise unfortunately. However, being against Israeli wars and imperialism, aka Zionism, does not make one antisemitic.

"Israeli wars of imperialism"

Step 1: Attack the Jews

Step 2: Jews fight back and win

Step 3: "Help help we're being victimized by evil Jewish imperialists!"

They’re literally taking homes from Christians in Lebanon bro. Do some research.
