People using the term anti semitic often fail to realize that the semitic people and culture not only contains Jews, but also levantine Arabs.
-
however, the name Semitic is a nazi invention that was originally directed towards Jews. part of their scientific racism.
it's kind of meaningless.
like Dwight claiming an Indian coworkers is Caucasian because he claims her people came from the Caucasus.
but yhea, if we step out of semantics, fuck Israel for this genocide and using the Jewish diaspora as shields.

^^^Yes, more people need to know about this because it’s a meaningless “gotcha”
-
however, I'll prefer if we included all Semitic people in the term.
because in a way, they are all related people.
Palestinians are ancestors of the ancient Canaanites just like jews are (if we ignore a lot of mixing with other genepools).

More importantly, it's used inappropriately when talking about violence towards/hatred of the vaaaaaaaast majority of Israelis because they're Europeans...
-
The people that should be hearing this won't accept it as truth. They actively deny the Eastern European heritage of ashkenazi Jews.
