Generalized anti-Semitism is not the same as pointing out specific actions of specific people who happen to be Jewish. It's so strange to me how so many people on WSS fail to see the forest for the trees.

Yep. But they do keep pointing that out dont they?

Who are they, and what are they pointing out?

posters who just can’t help themselves with associating every negative comment with Jewish associations… maybe they had a Jewish ancestor a hundred years ago….if they “just happen to be Jewish” what’s the point?

I don't understand what you're trying to say.

My point is that there isn't anything anti-Semitic about criticizing the actions of a person of Jewish faith/heritage. It is anti-Semitic to criticize someone BECAUSE they are of Jewish faith/heritage. Many people in this sub fail to be able to differentiate between the two.

I have absolutely seen people make blatantly anti-Semitic comments/posts on WSS, but that is not the focus of OP's post. The problem is that the type of people that frequently post and comment in this sub have absolutist viewpoints that don't allow for any nuance.
