Article is very interesting and talks about the mix of goals in regards to the protests, and how speech negatively and positively helps accomplish those goals.

    Being against Zionism is not the same as being anti-Semitic, anti-Semitism is a type of racial/religious discrimination, and anti-Zionism is being against the Jewish fascist elite not because they are Jews but because they are fascists.

    The American media is deliberately confusing the population with the term anti-Semitism referring to anti-Zionism. mainly because mentioning the term anti-Semitic has a strong reaction from the American audience. and because obviously the American elite and the Jewish elite are very good friends.

      Netanyahu is the primary source of that, before it even gets to western media. He repeatedly uses antisemitism as a defense of any criticism of his actions, or the actions of the IDF, and he’s been doing it for a long time. I know many American Jews that resent him for it.

        It is the way in which fascism has operated throughout history and even more so in modern times with the mass media, they tend to hide their regimes under facades to act as victims while being victimizers.

        They have been using these types of strategies for decades, for example the name of Trump’s social network, “Truth Social” is just another facade to organize fascist groups and their agenda as well as everything that ideology entails.
