This is not a new thing to say but like
Antisemites have gotten way way *way* too comfortable lately, in being naked about it. And like, that's been true since 2016, but it's uh... especially been true since 2023.
I wonder why.
Oh right, it's that they can use Anti-zionism as a backdoor to launder their antisemitism.
Anti-Zionism is not inherently antisemetic. But it can be a great dogwhistle and laundry service *for* antisemitism. And a great recruiting tool for it, a 'step one' to get people in the door, the same way TERFs and Radfems will start with low-hanging fruit, like being against 'boys in girls locker rooms' or speaking out against certain kinks that most people think are weird/gross/etc.
