    I mean… It s not like we don’t see history repeating itself right now with radicals gaining popularity and power using antisemitic tendencies of the voters. I don’t think last time it happened it ended so well for israel and they certainly aren’t helping themselves

      There aren’t many Jewish people here so by proxy I’ve never seen antisemitism in person. I’m not well-placed to talk at all.

      That said, it’s hard not to wonder whether the term antisemitism isn’t being used abusively…

        In my country there is a party led by a guy famous mostly for putting out Hannukah candles in parliment using a fire extinguisher. His party is above the electoral threshold (5%) and he got 4th in presidential elections. Other parties think it is a good idea to try to appeal to his voters. I don’t have much hope left for… Anything related to politics
