    I’m a Jew and pretty sensitive to antisemitism, even dogwhistles. I admit I don’t go to lemmy.ml very often, but from what I’ve seen from lemmy.ml posters posting on lemmy.world, there’s been no antisemitism at all. In fact, I have not seen any antisemitism from anyone here that I can recall, which is pretty amazing in and of itself.

    Opposition to Israel’s genocidal regime is not antisemitism.

      Yeah. I am really sick of seeing the argument that any condemnation of the government of Israel is anti-Semitic. It has nothing to do with them being Jewish and everything to do with how they have handled that conflict over the years.

      Out of the loop, what do dogwhistles mean regarding antisemitism?

        Saying things that aren’t explicitly antisemitic but are basically hidden code for antisemitism. Such as “Globalists.”

      Go actually look at the .ml worldnews community. There is full mask off “death to Israel” shit all over the place.

        “Death to Israel” is also not antisemitic. Jews are not Israelis and Israelis are not Jews. I am not an Israeli. I have no ties or allegiances to Israel, nor do I want them. I think “death to Israel” is an extremist viewpoint, but not an antisemitic one.
